Multi-level Linear Referencing Systems: Managing Transportation Data
Effectively 

Combining information from different data sources within a department of
transportation has been an information processing concern.  Spatial
data, whether in the form of a mile marker, literal description or other
location component, has varied in the many different databases used over
the years. Since a vast majority of the data collected is referenced to
the Earth in some manner, the use of spatial location and Geographic
Information System products is the logical choice to accomplish this
integration. The Linear Reference System (LRS) aligns the linear
reference points in all databases so information from crash statistics,
pavement management and other business data can be accurately mapped and
data more easily analyzed. Through this integration, the LRS improves
data integration and access, improves accuracy, minimizes redundancy in
the databases, minimizes data maintenance activities and includes all
public roads.
