San Diego Roads_All utility added
Posted by qtools_gis in Utilities on August 4, 2011
A new ArcGIS utility has been added.
The San Diego Geographic Information Source (SanGIS) www.sangis.org makes available for download the “Roads_All.shp” shapefile which contains all the roadways in the county. It is a valuable resource for creating a roads layer on maps of the region. However, there are some issues within the data (such as leading zeros in some numeric street names) that can be obstacles to quick use; and its great detail can clutter maps at small scales.
The newly posted San Diego Roads_all Utility is a set of models, scripts and a layer file that addresses some of these issues.
