Track: Editing and Data Compilation
Authors: Jennifer Sylvester, Travis Scruggs

The presentation outlines the methods of collecting and processing street data from multiple sources across the state of Texas for the purpose of creating a statewide local streets linear referencing layer to use for new 2014 mileage reporting requirements from FHWA . It includes methods of data collection, scripting, route creation and data cleansing. It is useful for users working with python to process large datasets or those working to meet the same mileage reporting requirements.
