Description: Data current as of July 2025; Data published October 2025This data item is maintained through the West Virginia Department of Transportation (WVDOT) Linear Referencing Systems (LRS) Service Unit within the Information Technology Division.This dataset is a subset of all dominant routes from the ALL_ROUTES dataset. All routes are assigned route dominance. If multiple routes share the same underlying geometry (centerline), route dominance rules are applied. Where concurrent routes exist, route dominance is generally assigned to the route that meets the following criteria: lowest sign system number followed by lowest route number followed by highest supplemental code. There are some exceptions where the dominant route does not follow the dominance rules.The general rule for route dominancy is: among all concurrent routes, the route with the lowest sign system code dominates. If more than one route shares the same lowest sign system code the one with the smallest route number dominates. Measures embedded in routes are derived by linear interpolation based on calibration point data collected by using a Distance Measuring Instrument (DMI) except for ramps which use the geometry length to derive measures.Data is sorted by sign system ( 0 = Municipal Non-State Route, 1 = Interstates, 2 = US Route, 3 = State Route, 04 = County Route, 06 = State Park And Forest Route, 7 = Federal Aid Non State Route (FANS), 08 = HARP Route), County Number, and District. This dataset includes all State Maintained Routes including all Interstate, State, US, and County Highways within West Virginia. This dataset does not contain any local and other routes on it. Information provided in this dataset includes RouteID, Beginning and Ending Milepoint, The Route Number Label, Street Name, Sub Routes, Sign System, Route Number, County Code.

Description: The National Hydrography Dataset (NHD) is a feature-based database that interconnects and uniquely identifies the stream segments or reaches that make up the nation's surface water drainage system. NHD data was originally developed at 1:100,000-scale and exists at that scale for the whole country. This high-resolution NHD, generally developed at 1:24,000/1:12,000 scale, adds detail to the original 1:100,000-scale NHD. (Data for Alaska, Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands was developed at high-resolution, not 1:100,000 scale.) Local resolution NHD is being developed where partners and data exist. The NHD contains reach codes for networked features, flow direction, names, and centerline representations for areal water bodies. Reaches are also defined on waterbodies and the approximate shorelines of the Great Lakes, the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans and the Gulf of Mexico. The NHD also incorporates the National Spatial Data Infrastructure framework criteria established by the Federal Geographic Data Committee.The coordinate system is UTM Zone 17(NAD83).Data as of October 2018
