Routes
Routes are typically unbroken geometries. In our example to the right, 16th street will be unbroken from beginning to end. The only exception would be if there is real-world interruption, like a park or a lake or something similar to that.

How is a RouteID Created?
Our route identifiers are mostly random, 8 or 9 character values which represent the unique route feature within a given quadrant.
First Digit = RoadType Code
1Â =Â Street
2Â = Service Road
3Â = RampÂ
4 = Alley Â
5Â = Driveway
6 = Trail
Second Digit = Quadrant code:
1 – NW
2 – NEÂ
3 – SE
4 – SW
5Â - Boundary
- Remaining 6 digits = Script-generated, randomized and unique numbers
