    Description:
      Abstract:
        This data set is a linear representation of Washington State Routes, with State Route (SR) identifiers and route measure attributes. Each SR is symbolized with a single line whether or not the highway is divided. Entrance, exit and collector/distributor ramps are not included, but spurs, couplets and reversible lanes are.
      Purpose:
        The data provide a small-scale cartographic rendition of Washington State highways. They also represent the linear reference system (LRS) used by Washington State Department of Transportation. This LRS enables the use of dynamic segmentation to position features along the highway system according to the features' route measure position. This dataset is a snapshot of the roadway system, effective 12/31/07.
      Supplemental Information: San Juan County contains no State Routes.

Data Quality Information

Section Index

    Attribute Accuracy:
      Attribute Accuracy Report: State route numbers and accumulated route mileage values were obtained from the 2007 State Highway Log effective as of 12/31/2007.
    Logical Consistency Report:
      These data form a network representing the connectivity of the State Routes (SR's) of Washington State. Nodes represent SR endpoints. Also, nodes occur where SR's intersect with other SR's, with county boundaries, and with Washington State Department of Transportation region boundaries.
    Completeness Report: The data set contains all of the state routes in the State of Washington.
    Positional Accuracy:
      Horizontal Positional Accuracy:
        Horizontal Positional Accuracy Report: Positional accuracy has not been determined.

      Process Step:
        Process Description:
          The source file state.dgn was digitized from various printed maps--principally the USGS Washington State wall map--using Intergraph Microstation software. Srclean.dgn contains state.dgn state routes depicted as single lines. In cases where highways are divided and intersect with other SR's, the intersection of the increasing sides were chosen for depiction. The srclean.dgn file was converted into an Arc/Info coverage with the Arc ""IGDSARC"" command. Attributes storing the beginning and ending route measures for each line were added using custom menus in ""ARCEDIT,"" and routes were created with the ""ARCSECTION"" command. The coverage was transformed to geographic coordinates using Arc commands ""PROJECTDEFINE"" and ""PROJECT."

          Using Intergraph Microstation software a dgn file containing graphic updates to the state highway system was created. This file was converted into an Arc/Info coverage with the Arc ""IGDSARC"" command. The coverage was transformed to geographic coordinates using Arc commands ""PROJECTDEFINE"" and ""PROJECT."" Arcs from the new coverage were added to the existing coverage, sr, replacing arcs that needed updating. The new arcs were attributed using custom menus in ""ARCEDIT"" and routes were created with the ""ARCSECTION"" command.
