Making the Safety of West Virginians Our # 1 Priority - One Address at a Time. Statewide Addressing Update Craig A. Neidig Chairman, WVSAMB and State GIS Coordinator 2006 WV GIS Forum May 17, 2006
Statewide Mapping Highlights • Mapping specs • Statewide: 1”- 400' (1:4800 scale) • ± 4-foot horizontal accuracy • NAD 83, WV State Plane (N-S) Feet • Features • Orthoimagery (natural color aerial photography) • Planimetric road centerlines, hydrology, railroads, building centroids and footprints • Elevation mass points and breaklines to support 10-foot elevation contours (WVDOH) • Federal coops: • USGS: 1/9 arcsecond NED first complete state in nation • FEMA: FIRM updates • Census Bureau: road centerlines meet MTAIP requirements • USDA/NRCS: soils updates • Private Sector • Licensing of elevation mass points and breaklines
Current activities: • Roads identified and named • ESZ's defined • TEAM1 phase completed; TEAM2 in process • Regional county TEAM2 workshops • TN matching and address conflation checking • "Addressed" vs. "unaddressed" county differences • First pilot areas ready for USPS address conversion tests • Oracle-based Statewide Addressing Maintenance System (SAMS) "stood up" March 2006 • A lot still to be done by December 31 !!
By the end of 2007 WV will have: • ALL rural addresses (RR, HC, Star Route) converted to city-type addresses • County MSAG's for E9-1-1 completed • USPS postal address conversion well underway or completed • Statewide Addressing Maintenance System (SAMS) fully operational • Address maintenance occurring at county-level on continual basis • Increased integration of address informationwith other county (Assessor) and state offices(WVDMV, etc.)
SAMB Challenges and Opportunities: • Align Census blocks and voting precincts to ridgelines • Breakline or "synthetic" derivation • Strategy for adjusting boundaries(county, municipal, unincorporated areas, etc.) • Transition from paper-based to digital county mapping • Synchronization and cross-walking of Censusactivities (BAS, LUCA, Enumeration) with the SAMS • Restrictions on MAF exchange? • "One stop" rather than 55 counties? • Funding for Ortho and other mapping updates? • Long-term address program management?
