Description:

Abstract:
This dataset contains centerlines for public roads including interstates, US and state Highways, county roads, city streets, park roads and institutional roads. The roads were digitized from the Iowa Department of Transportation's Geographic Information Management System (GIMS) and updated through construction and maintenance updates and field inventory through 12-31-01. Construction and maintenance updates are performed annually. Road data for county roads is inventoried and collected from field inspections for all 99 counties within the previous year. Road data is inventoried and collected from field inspections for city streets, park roads, and institutional roads on a 4 year cycle.
Purpose: This data was compiled by the Iowa Department of Transportation for use as the State's base record and for the publication of Iowa's DOT road maps.
Supplemental Information:
With this dataset the control feature is the COUNTY_Roads.shp. To join this feature to the other tables you need to use the MSLINK column in the control table (ie. COUNTY_Roads.shp) and create your join to the MSLINK field in the target table. In other words join the MSLINK field in the .shp file to the MSLINK field in the .dbf tables.
