This service provides a quarterly snapshot of the North Carolina state-maintained road network centerlines. Here, the route network is divided into three layers with symbolized Route Classifications listed below.State Maintained RoadsInterstateUS RouteNC RouteSecondary RouteRampsRest AreasOther State Agency RouteState Maintained Roads - Primary RoadsInterstateUS RouteNC RouteState Maintained Roads - InterstatesInterstateNorth Carolina’s route network is comprised of Interstate, US, NC, Secondary Roads, Ramps, and non-state maintained and projected roads required for federal reporting purposes. Route attributes include Route Class, Route Qualifier, Route Inventory, Route Number, Route Name, and County name. The Route ID attribute is an 11-digit composite route number, the identifier for the Dominant Route. It uniquely identifies routes statewide and should be used as the route identifier when performing LRS analysis using route/milepost referencing.NCDOT adopted the road centerline based Linear Reference System (LRS) Network as it’s official Enterprise LRS, to which multiple road inventory attributes are referenced along measured routes throughout North Carolina. These routes are classified as either System or Non-System routes. System routes are routes within the state-maintained road network, and are comprised of Interstates, US Routes, NC Routes, Secondary Routes, Ramps, and Non-System Routes. Non-System routes are routes that are typically not maintained by NCDOT, but instead by a local agency (county, city or MPO/RPO). The local agency is the source for updating these Non-System routes in NCDOT’s LRS. The collection of routes, System and Non-System, is the NCDOT LRS Network referred to as MilePoint.MetadataThe metadata for the contained layers of the NCDOT State Maintained Roads service is available through the following links:NCDOT Route ArcsPoint of Contact North Carolina Department of Information Technology -Transportation, GIS UnitGIS Data and Services ConsultantContact information:gishelp@ncdot.govCentury Center – Building B1020 Birch Ridge DriveRaleigh, NC 27610Hours of service: 9:00am - 5:00pm Monday – FridayContact instructions: Please send an email with any issues, questions, or comments regarding the State Maintained Roads data.

This dataset consists of the geologic contact lines for the Caldwell 7.5-minute Quadrangle.

This polyline digital dataset, compiled through new detailed geologic mapping by the authors, represents the general distribution of geology for the Caldwell 7.5' quadrangle, Orange and Person Counties, North Carolina. This polyline file was used to develop North Carolina Geological Survey Open-File Report 2010-03. This file contains original North Carolina Geological Survey (NCGS) geologic mapping data generated by compiling detailed field observations during the period from August 2008 through June 2009 and September 2009 through May 2010. This polyline database delineates map units that are identified by general age and lithology through standard geologic mapping procedures. These data were mapped at a scale of 1:24,000 and are appropriate for use at this scale and smaller.

Polylines are coded by line type (LINETYPE).

This dataset contains inferred and concealed contact lines. This is the definition for the inferred polylines: A polyline that indicates the interpreted geologic contact between map units, determined based on available station data. A physical contact was not observed in the field. The concealed contact lines were obscured beneath the Quaternary alluvium.

North Carolina Effective Flood zones: In 2000, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) designated North Carolina a Cooperating Technical Partner State, formalizing an agreement between FEMA and the State to modernize flood maps. This partnership resulted in creation of the North Carolina Floodplain Mapping Program (NCFMP). As a CTS, the State assumed primary ownership and responsibility of the Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRMs) for all North Carolina communities as part of the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP). This project includes conducting flood hazard analyses and producing updated, Digital Flood Insurance Rate Maps (DFIRMs). Floodplain management is a process that aims to achieve reduced losses due to flooding. It takes on many forms, but is realized through a series of federal, state, and local programs and regulations, in concert with industry practice, to identify flood risk, implement methods to protect man-made development from flooding, and protect the natural and beneficial functions of floodplains. FIRMs are the primary tool for state and local governments to mitigate areas of flooding. Individual county databases can be downloaded from https://fris.nc.gov Updated Jan 17th, 2025.

Wake County Census Block Groups 2010

U.S. Census Bureau: Block group population should range from 1,200 to 3,000.

Census Block Groups are the smallest geographic areas for which sample data from Census 2000 was tabulated and are the smallest geographic areas for which data from the American Survey will be tabulated.

Block Group numbers are unique within Census Tract and range from 1 to 9.

Block Groups increased from the 2000 to the 2010 Census.

Number of Wake County Census Block Groups 2000: 263
Number of Wake County Census Block Groups 2010: 455

A Stormwater account exists to facilitate public payments into a fund to prevent stormwater damage that naturally arises from water runoff that accumulates as a result of our built environment. This damage comes in the form of flooding of our roads and private property and water quality damage to our river/stream ecosystem. The amount of pavement and other hard surfaces, also known as "impervious surfaces," on each property contributes to potential stormwater damage risks. Therefore, each property owner pays a small fee according to the amount of impervious surface on their property or property for which it shares some obligation.

This dataset is an updated version of the 2008 dataset containing all public school locations in North Carolina. New schools were geocoded in ArcGIS 10 and merged with the existing dataset. Closed schools were removed,and existing attribute information was updated with current data. Some new fields were added, including designations for Pre-K, Elementary, Middle, High, and Early College schools. A review process was performed to move incorrect existing school points to new correct locations. Not all points were able to be individually reviewed,and may represent approximate school locations. This update was a collaborative effort among the Center for Geographic Information and Analysis, Institute for Transportation Research and Education, and NC Department of Public Instruction. Current school data was provided by NC DPI, using the Educational Directory and Demographical Information Exchange (EDDIE), found at http://apps.schools.nc.gov/eddie. ITRE used this dataset to conduct the update process, which included all steps of GIS analysis listed above. CGIA consulted on processing steps, lineage, and quality control to prepare the dataset for the NC OneMap Geospatial Portal.
