Capital Improvements Program (CIP) Digitization

Background

Each fiscal year, ATD has several Capital Improvement Projects that need to be mapped. DTS GIS staff typically receive an excel file with the geographic bounds of the projects to be mapped, along with the Sub Project ID and Sub Project Name. ATD CIPs live in ATD_ADMIN.atd_cip_poly in the ATD_ADMIN.Strucure dataset MAINT, and geodatapusher updates them to DataMart periodically.

Digitization

It is recommended that the projects are initially digitized in a line feature class that traces the street centerline and then buffered to the appropriate width, according to the below specs:

Project Type	Buffer Distance	Length
Single Road	50 ft from centerline	350 ft
Intersection - main road	50 ft from centerline	350 ft
Intersection - side road	50 ft from centerline	150 ft

The line buffers are then merged into a single feature. There is an existing scratch polygon feature class Database: G:\ATD\ATD_GIS\RNA\RNA.gdb Feature Class: RNA_052019 with the necessary fields for ATD's CIP feature class. Once the bounds and attributes have been QA-ed, they can be brought into ATDs CIP feature class.
