I'm writing code to read the Tiger Shapefiles (.dbf and .shp); evidently an Interstate can be represented by three "road" lines: one for each collection of lanes in each direction, and one for the interstate itself.
To restate the above in a bit more detail: there are sometimes records in the shapefile, type of either 3 or 5, which represent one side of an interstate. Sometimes these records have the interstate name in them, sometimes not. My question is: is there any way to relate such a record to the Interstate it belongs to if it does not have the name in the FULLNAME field? Any help appreciated, thanks rc -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Tiger-Shapefiles%3A-MTFCC-but-no-name-for-Interstates-tp24016253p24016253.html Sent from the OpenStreetMap - General mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
