Florida Department of Transportation 20061016 MAJOR ROADS - STATEWIDE vector digital data Tallahassee, FL Florida Department of Transportation State of Florida www.dot.state.fl.us This dataset contains major roads from the January 2007 version of the Florida Department of Transportation Roads Characteristics inventory (RCI) dataset. The dataset has been updated from the previous versions of FGDL. The data was created to serve as base information for use in GIS systems for a variety of planning and analytical purposes The RCI is a computerized database of physical and administrative data related to the roadway networks that are either maintained by or are of special interest to the Department. In addition to data required by the Department, the RCI contains other data as required for special Federal and State reporting obligations. The RCI is maintained by District and Central Office personnel. While there are many other important databases maintained by the Department (several that contain more highly technical data such as bridge specifications, highway design, or pavement) the RCI remains the largest database with over 1 million records.

A note about data scale: Scale is an important factor in data usage. Certain scale datasets are not suitable for some project, analysis, or modeling purposes. Please be sure you are using the best available data. 1:24000 scale datasets are recommended for projects that are at the county level. 1:24000 data should NOT be used for high accuracy base mapping such as property parcel boundaries. 1:100000 scale datasets are recommended for projects that are at the multi-county or regional level. 1:125000 scale datasets are recommended for projects that are at the regional or state level or larger. Vector datasets with no defined scale or accuracy should be considered suspect. Make sure you are familiar with your data before using it for projects or analysis. Every effort has been made to supply the user with data documentation. For additional information, see the References section and the Data Source Contact section of this documentation.

Specific instructions, created by URS Corporation and the GeoPlan Center, were carried out. The data set is then to be updated on a regular basis. The data was originally in TM Zone 17, Nad83, units meters. The data was projected to Albers HPGN. -Download the most recent Statewide ARC/Info basemap coverage -Join the road status descriptions to the status event table -Add a Route Event theme using the road status descriptions -Add a Route Event theme using the local names -Add a Route Event theme using the State Road Numbers -Add a Route Event theme using the Federal Highway Numbers -Add a description field to be associated with the Functional Classification values based on the following values: FUNCLASS DESCRIPT 00 - Roadway Feature 01 RURAL - Principal Arterial--Interstate 02 RURAL - Principal Arterial--Other 06 RURAL - Minor Arterial 07 RURAL - Major Collector 08 RURAL - Minor Collector 09 RURAL - Local 11 URBAN - Principal Arterial--Interstate 12 URBAN - Principal Arterial--Other Freeways and Expressways 14 URBAN - Other Principal Arterial 16 URBAN - Minor Arterial 17 URBAN - Collector 19 URBAN - Local -Add a Route Event theme using the FDOT Functional Classifications -Select the primary route events from the "stroute Events" layer -Select the primary route events from the "usroute Events" layer -Use the ArcGIS 9.1 Route Events GeoProcessing Wizard to merge all route events -Export from Route Event to Shapefile -Select the existing roadways from the "Roadway_road_status Events" layer -Combine the "localnam Events" layer with the "stroute Events" layer -Finally, add the following fields: USROUTE, text, 8 STROUTE, text, 8 RD_STATUS, text, 25 LENGTH, double, precision 18, scale 11 -Delete the columns "ROUTE," "ROUTE2," and "DESCR2." -Project the shape file to the standard FGDL projection. -Update the Length field with the length (in meters) for each segment -Create a shapefile without any remaining zero-length features.

FDOT roads are categorized as Interstate, U.S Route, State and County roads and are collectively called the "State Highway System" (SHS). All SHS roads have a state road number, indicated with a prefix of SR. County roads are also included in this characteristic, with a prefix of CR. If a road transfers from the SHS, the State Road Number is changed to a County Road Number in the database by changing the SR prefix to OS (Old State Road Number). After one year, the OS is changed to CR. FDOT RD_STATUS Status of the roadway or section or roadway. Pending (new construction anticipated to be added to the SHS). Active (route owned and maintained by FDOT)-Inactive (route kept for historic purposes). Active/Exclusive (ramps,frontage roads, etc.).
