         <abstract>The TIGER/Line shapefiles and related database files (.dbf) are an extract of
            selected geographic and cartographic information from the U.S. Census Bureau's Master
            Address File / Topologically Integrated Geographic Encoding and Referencing (MAF/TIGER)
            Database (MTDB). The MTDB represents a seamless national file with no overlaps or gaps
            between parts, however, each TIGER/Line shapefile is designed to stand alone as an
            independent data set, or they can be combined to cover the entire nation. The All Roads
            Shapefile includes all features within the MTDB Super Class "Road/Path Features"
            distinguished where the MAF/TIGER Feature Classification Code (MTFCC) for the feature in
            MTDB that begins with "S". This includes all primary, secondary, local neighborhood, and
            rural roads, city streets, vehicular trails (4wd), ramps, service drives, alleys,
            parking lot roads, private roads for service vehicles (logging, oil fields, ranches,
            etc.), bike paths or trails, bridle/horse paths, walkways/pedestrian trails, and
            stairways.</abstract>
         <purpose>In order for others to use the information in the Census MAF/TIGER database in a
            geographic information system (GIS) or for other geographic applications, the Census
            Bureau releases to the public extracts of the database in the form of TIGER/Line
            Shapefiles.</purpose>

      <logic>There may be some inconsistencies in feature names along features. An anomaly exists
         with the sporadic occurrence of road segments comprising a complete chain with different
         MAF/TIGER Feature Census Class Code (MTFCC) values assigned. This problem could affect
         applications that use the MTFCC values for network analysis, routing, or for assigning
         symbology to a feature when creating a map. The Census Bureau performed automated tests to
         ensure logical consistency and limits of shapefiles. Node/geometry and topology
         relationships are collected or generated to satisfy topological edit requirements. These
         requirements include: (1) Complete chains must begin and end at nodes. (2) Complete chains
         must connect to each other at nodes. (3) Complete chains do not extend through nodes. (4)
         Left and right polygons are defined for each complete chain element and are consistent
         throughout the extract process. (5) The chains representing the limits of the files are
         free of gaps.</logic>

         <horizpa>
            <horizpar>The Census Bureau uses Global Positioning System (GPS) coordinates at road
               centerline intersections to evaluate the horizontal spatial accuracy of source files
               that may be used to realign road features in the MAF/TIGER database and test the
               horizontal spatial accuracy of the road features in the TIGER/Line Shapefiles. The
               test compares a survey-grade GPS coordinate to its associated road centerline
               intersection in the TIGER/Line Shapefiles. The test is based on an independent
               collection of GPS coordinates for a random sample of road intersections from a
               centerline file that meet certain criteria. The points are referred to as the sample
               points and are gathered through a private contractor working for the Census Bureau.
               Since the collection method uses survey-quality GPS-based field techniques, the
               resulting control points are considered 'ground truth' against which the TIGER road
               centerline intersection coordinates are compared. The distances between the
               coordinates are calculated and the Census Bureau determines the Circular Error 95%
               (CE95). That is, the accuracy of the file in meters with 95% confidence. The CE95 can
               be calculated from the mean and standard deviation by using the formula: mean of
               differences plus (2.65 times the standard deviation). CE95 results reported for each
               file tested are determined using a spreadsheet with embedded statistical formula. The
               use and applicability of the spreadsheet and its embedded formula have been verified
               by Census Bureau statisticians. The basis of the calculation is the use of the root
               mean square error (RMSE). This is the method as stated in the U.S. Government's
               Federal Geographic Data Committee Standard FGDC-STD-007.3-1998, Geospatial
               Positioning Accuracy Standards. Part 3: National Standard for Spatial Data Accuracy.
               The results of using this measure of accuracy are in compliance with Federal Spatial
               Data requirements. In terms of the Census Bureau application, the dataset coordinate
               values are those taken from the centerline file and the coordinate values from an
               independent source of higher accuracy are those acquired through the Census Bureau's
               contractor. Please note that the horizontal spatial accuracy, where reported, refers
               only to the realigned road features identified as matched to the positionally
               accurate source file with that accuracy. It is not the spatial accuracy of the
               TIGER/Line Shapefile as a whole.</horizpar>
