Ownership on Federal jurisdiction roads were also updated based on an dataset received for FHWA in conjunction with the HPMS submittal. HPMS (Highway Performance Monitoring System) fields were also added in an effort to integrate the roads county data into HPMS and MIRE (Model Inventory Roadway Elements). 9/14/20 - Added the following fields - AADT, AADT_YR, HPMS_MAINTENANCE_OPERATIONS, HPMS_THROUGH_LANES, FUNCTIONAL_CLASS (replaces FUNCTION_CLASS)8/13/19 - The following counties were updated by using a variety of aerial photography: Eddy, Foster and Barnes.

Seldom used trails are also being digitized into the dataset. They are being added as counties are being checked, so it will take some time for all seldom used trails to be added statewide. Also since the last update, all local roads that are in the corporate boundaries have been broken at the boundaries so it is easier to query to determine which roads go with each community.5/21/18 - removed CITY_INT_ID column - no longer used because of CITY_FIPS and HPMS_URBAN_CODE attributes. Removed SERVICE_LEVEL field, never used/maintained.4/19/18 - added HPMS_OWNERSHIP and HPMS_FACILITY fields for HPMS submittal1/24/18 - added CITY_FIPS and HPMS_URBAN_CODE attributes/domains.

These counties were updated using a combination of the available NAIP aerials, the DES aerials, and by car within the insets. In addition to these updates, the whole county dataset was edited using Data Reviewer checks. The checks ran included unnecessary nodes, non-linear segments, invalid geometry, Duplicate vertices with a tolerance of .5 meters, polyline closes of self, checked for cutbacks using a 15 degree minimum angle, checked for polyline length check using a distance less than 10 meters, checked for multipart lines, inspected dangles with a tolerance of 10 meters, and checked for orphans. All checks were inspected and fixed where appropriate.7/16/14 - updates include: Traill, Barnes, Stutsman, Kidder, Bowman, Slope, Stark, Hettinger, Adams, Grant, Sioux and Morton.

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.

Combined Misc Roads and County Roads. Blank fields mean unknown attribute. Use P_STREET_NAME for dynamic labeling. We are also in the process of removing all proposed roads. 12/28/05 - Counties updated: Emmons, Logan, Mcintosh, Lamoure, Dickey, Ransom, Sargent, Richland, Divide, Williams, Burke, Mountrail, Ward, Renville, Bottineau, and Mchenry This data came from the NDDOT's Mapping Section. The original data was digitized from hand scribed maps and registered to the 1:24000 USGS PLSS data. The digitized data is maintained in individual county tiles. These tiles were appended together to make a singe state wide coverage. It was then converted from a projection (NAD 1983 UTM Zone 14N) to a Geographic coordinate system.
