The data was unprojected via ArcMap for use on the Hub. The information came from Ken Rood and the Insurance Commission. For years the NDDOT would use ChartPak tape and tape the boundaries on our 11 X 17 County Base Maps. Deciding the need for a digital layer, the mapping section started to create the layer during the winter of 2006/2007. The section line layer was used to snap the Fire District Boundaries to. The layer was created in ArcMap and the names and fire district codes were given to us by the Insurance Commission. A geodatabase was created for the layer and topology rules were created to eliminate overlaps and slivers. The link to the maps on the Insurance Commissions site is http://www.nd.gov/ndins/company/details.asp?ID=321

These two coverages have now been combined into one SDE feature class and is being edited within the SDE environment. The following changes have been made to feature class. Deleted all the A1 and A2 Fields so a person would have to hunt back and forth to find a road name. Road names consist of the following fields: RTE_ID, STR_TYP, SUF_DIR, & LAN_DIR. The CMC route numbers were moved from the A1_ prefixed fields to the CMC field to better track the CMC route. Created a County Highway field so we can enter the county road number. It consists of the counties name and number. This is still a work in progress. Created FS_RD_Number and FS_RD_Name fields to better track Forest Service roads. Created Bia-RD_Number and BIA_RD_Name fields to better track Bureau of Indian Affairs roads. The following field changes are used for NDDOT specific processes: Created a service level field which is something that may be used in the future. Currently it contains how Walsh County prioritizes their roads. Created a Through and Connecting Route field so we can so select routes through the towns and cities. This was created exclusively for the county base maps. Created an Inset Associated field. This was created so the information in the rd_misc would come into the county routes. In the future, it is planned to be deleted. 6/18/09 - Updated county routes from aerial observation and photo interpretation using 2003, 2005, 2006 NAIP photos and 2008 photography from Designs camera.
