Track: Statistics
Authors: Nick Moebius

Each year the Census Bureau accepts thousands of boundary and feature updates from tribal, state, and local governments through its Boundary and Annexation Survey (BAS) and the Boundary Quality Assessment and Reconciliation Project (BQARP). This presentation will highlight the tools that the Census Bureau has developed using ArcGIS ModelBuilder and Python scripts, to review and ingest boundary and feature data into the MAF/TIGER system.
