Transportation Data Effectively</span></font> <o:p></o:p></b></p>

<p><font size=3 face=Calibri><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:Calibri'>Combining
information from different data sources within a department of transportation
has been an information processing concern.  Spatial data, whether in the
form of a mile marker, literal description or other location component, has
varied in the many different databases used over the years. Since a vast
majority of the data collected is referenced to the Earth in some manner, the
use of spatial location and Geographic Information System products is the
logical choice to accomplish this integration. The Linear Reference System (LRS)
aligns the linear reference points in all databases so information from crash
statistics, pavement management and other business data can be accurately
mapped and data more easily analyzed. Through this integration, the LRS
improves data integration and access, improves accuracy, minimizes redundancy
in the databases, minimizes data maintenance activities and includes all public
roads.</span></font><o:p></o:p></p>
