Description
Abstract:
This is a ArcView shape file of State-wide highways for Oklahoma State.
Purpose:
This highways data set was prepared by the Center for Spatial Analysis at the
University of Oklahoma to provide information about the highways within
Oklahoma State as provided by 2000 TIGER/Line files of the Census Bureau.
The TIGER/Line data for the individual counties was transformed into an
ArcView shape file for the entire Oklahoma State. This highways layer has
been generated by updating the original TIGER/Line highway features, in part,
through digitizing and attribute correction on the Cfcc codes and the Fenames.

Attribute_Accuracy
Attribute_Accuracy_Report:
The accurate against Federal Information Processing Standards
(FIPS), FIPS Publication 6-4, and FIPS-55 at the 100% level for the codes
and base names. The remaining attribute information has been examined
but has not been fully tested for accuracy.
Logical_Consistency_Report:
The highways data was originally derived from TIGER/Line
2000 files of the Bureau of the Census. TIGER/Line files were originally
digitized at a scale of 1:100,000 to an accuracy of 160 ft.
Completeness_Report:
The compiler embodies the syntax of the 1998 version of the Content Standard
for Digital Geospatial Metadata, known as FGDC-STD-001-1998 and also supports
the Biological Data Profile of that standard, FGDC-STD-001.1-1999. Local extensions
to the standard are permitted and a mechanism is provided
that allows these extensions to be described to the compiler.

ENTITY_AND_ATTRIBUTE_INFORMATION
Overview_Description
Entity_and_Attribute_Overview: This shape file contains TIGER/Line highways data
for the entire Oklahoma State created by appending the individual highway coverages
for all the counties in the State. The highways data set contain features of Feature
Class A, Road, with CFCC codes ranging from A11 through A37. Some corrections
have been made to the original TIGER/Line highways dataset (both topology and
attributes) to derive this highways dataset. The TIGER/Line files, in general, contain
data describing three major types of features/entities;
Line Features -
1) Roads
2) Railroads
3) Hydrography
4) Miscellaneous transportation features and selected power lines and pipe lines
5) Political and statistical boundaries
Landmark Features -
1) Point landmarks, e.g., schools and churches.
2) Area landmarks, e.g., Parks and cemeteries.
3) Key geographic locations (KGLs), e.g., apartment buildings and factories.
Polygon features -
1) Geographic entity codes for areas used to tabulate the 1990 census statistical data
and current geographic areas
2) Locations of area landmarks
3) Locations of KGLs
The line features and polygon information form the majority of data in the TIGER/Line
files.
Some of the data/attributes describing the lines include coordinates, feature identifiers
(names), CFCCs (used to identify the most noticeable characteristic of a feature), address
ranges, and geographic entity codes.
The Census TIGER/Line data base uses collections of spatial objects (points, lines, and
polygons) to model or describe real-world geography. The Census Bureau uses these
spatial objects to represent features such as streets, rivers, and political boundaries.
