Abstract
District of Columbia Major Roads represents interstate, U.S., and state highways and other major thoroughfares within District of Columbia.
Purpose
District of Columbia Major Roads provides an invaluable reference and cartographic layer that make it easy to identify areas in other data sets. District of Columbia Major Roads overlays accurately on streets and other boundary data.

Data Quality Information
Logical Consistency Report
No duplicate features are present. The shapefile is exported using Avenue request ExportClean. This request verifies and enforces the correctness of shapes.
Completeness Report
After processing, the data set is checked for drawing display and number of records and file sizes compared with source materials.
Horizontal Positional Accuracy Report
The geospatial part of this data set was extracted from the 1990 Census Version TIGER/Line™ files (CD–ROM edition). To improve the accuracy, GDT ran a process against the entire nationwide database. The positional accuracy of this data set exceeds the positional accuracy of the TIGER/Line coordinates. The positional accuracy of the TIGER/Line coordinates varies with the source materials used but at best meets the established National Map Accuracy standards (+/- 167 feet approximately) where 1:100,000-scale maps from the USGS are the source. The Census Bureau cannot specify the accuracy of feature updates added by its field staff or of features derived from the GBF/DIME-Files or other map sources. Thus, the level of positional accuracy in the TIGER/Line files is not suitable for high-precision measurement applications such as engineering problems, property transfers, or other uses that might require highly accurate measurements of the earth's surface.
