Abstract
This line data layer represents road centerlines for Dane County, Wisconsin in 2012. The dataset was originally published by the Dane County Land Information Office in 2012.[This layer is a detailed line coverage of the Dane County roadway network containing attributes such as street name and address ranges, ZIP codes, speed limits and routing.]
Purpose
This layer is intended for reference and mapping purposes and may be used for basic applications such as viewing, querying, and map output production or to provide a basemap to support graphical overlays and analysis with other spatial data. [A comprehensive street centerline and address range database to support Dane County geocoding, routing, and a cartographic product for official mapping.]
Supplemental Information
Augmented original metadata with AGSL specific elements. For official metadata contact the resource Point of Contact. Also see RoadCenterlines.htm.

Process Step
Description
[The Land Information Office updates the street network with centerline data that was developed from recent orthophotography and road right-of-way centerline data that was part the parcel database. Additional assistance with problem areas was provided by local municipalities.]
Process Step
Description
[The Dane County road centerline data was first develop in 1995 as part of a 1-meter resolution orthophotography project. The data consisted of basic geometry only.]
Process Date
1995-01-01T00:00:00
Process Step
Description
[In 1997 and 1998 the Dane County Regional Planning Organization built on the 1995 geometry by adding transportation planning attributes and doing some limited data clean up. The work done focused on developing a dataset that could be used for transportation modeling.]
Process Date
1998-01-01T00:00:00
Process Step
Description
[A new road centerline data was created as part of the Fly Dane 2000 project. The dataset was produced from breaklines created in the terrain modeling process. The centerlines were exported from the DTM to a vector file. The Dane County Land Information Office QA/QC the data and added any missing segments.]

Process Step
Description
[In 2003 Short Elliot Hendrickson, Inc. attached county and Madison Area Metropolitan Planning Organization attribute information contained in the 1995 road centerline file, and developed a master street name database to manage roadway name attributes. The master street name database received from SEH was a first compilation from best available regulatory sources. Street names were reviewed and reconciled with help of the County Surveyor, Highway Department, 911 and LIO. Conflicts with town road names were resolved using Dane County rural address maps. City and village road names were acquired from the County Clerk (based on municipal clerk reporting) and supplemented with names from county parcel maps as needed. Conflicts with city and village road names were resolved using county parcel maps. Location conflicts were resolved using these same data sets, together with the Dane County Road Map, plat books and other mapping resources. The LIO completed a detailed quality review for connectivity of roadway segments and completeness of attribution. The data set was completely reviewed by several departments and agencies that included the County Surveyor, Highway, Madison Area Metropolitan Planning Organization. Additionally, data from the City of Fitchburg and City of Sun Prairie was used to review the related street names. Private drives of 250 feet or greater, based from the 2000 orthophotography, where also added.]

Process Step
Description
[In 2005 RA Smith updated the street network by adding new street segments that were part the 2004 parcel archive. These segments were then stitched into the existing linework. RA Smith also develop preliminary address ranges through an automated process that developed address range from the Dane County parcel database and attaching them to the street segments. The LIO completed a detailed quality review of the address range attribution. Additionally, the City of Fitchburg, City of Sun Prairie and Madison Area Metropolitan Planning Organization assisted in reviewing the address ranges for their respective communities.]

Description
[In 2006 the Land Information Office updated the street network with centerline data that was developed from the 2005 orthophoto project and road right-of-way centerline data that was part the 2005 parcel archive. Digital source information was provided by the Madison Area Metropolitan Planning Organization. Additional assistance with problem areas was provided by the City of Sun Prairie, City of Fitchburg, City of Verona and Madison Area Metropolitan Planning Organization.]
