Abstract
The article discusses cost reduction in the quality assessment of digital cartographic information by means of satellite images. It provides some generic comments on aspects involved in the quality of digital vector data following a schema in use by the USGS, and gives an example of how Landsat 7 data can be useful to assess the spatial accuracy of road networks.
