Data Sources
• Routes (linear referencing system, LRS)
• Non-State Public Routes (NSPR)
• Ramps
• Roadway Inventory Log (RIL) New county-level geometry and attribute
edits
• Local roads
• Segmentation - split geometry at intersections (nodes)
• Addressing
Methods Overview
• Automated
geoprocessing
steps to combine
WVDOT and SAM
data for entire
state
• Deploy into new
LRS data model
for Esri Roads
and Highways
(R&H)
Future Project Ideas
 Improved Federal Highway Performance
Monitoring System reporting
 Enhanced connections to local routes on
printed and web-based maps
 Updated routing for analysis – desktop and
web mapping
• Maintenance materials acquisition
• Coal Resource Transportation System (CRTS)
Future Project Ideas
ESRI Roads and Highways
• Advanced Linear Referencing System capabilities.
• Easily manage, visualize, and analyze roadway networks and
associated data for better planning, management, and maintenance.
• Intelligently manage the location and position of asset data and
information.
• Use a workflow-driven process to improve quality and simplify
management and maintenance of roadway geometry and asset data.
• Integrate with existing roadway data and information stored in separate
data systems.
• Redlining capabilities to allow district and other central offices the
ability to submit edits to our roadway network and assets.
