  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Building and Maintaining a Statewide Transportation Framework Author: Dueker, Kenneth, Bender, Paul Year: 2002 Creating and maintaining up-to-date sharable Geographic Information SystemsTransportation (GIS-T) data is challenging. Many states are working on Transportation Framework efforts to build a complete, consistent, and current transportation data layer in conjunction with the NSDI and Geospatial One-Stop efforts. This paper summarizes an effort that systematically re-examined transportation data sharing issues as part of the development of a Transportation Framework for the State of Washington. Business needs were assessed in terms of spatial and temporal accuracy needs of stakeholders and users of a state-wide Transportation Framework. A conceptual model was developed for a Transportation Framework with emphasis on data flows to update and maintain it and other transportation databases. The paper concludes with a synthesis of issues, including determining the desired robustness of the Transportation Framework and cost allocation principles for possible add-on enhancements.
