Chapter 12: Administrative Data

Anchor: #i1012280

Section 1: Key Points to Know

Anchor: #i1012285

Administrative Data Defined

Administrative data are attributes related to federal funding or state jurisdiction. This chapter describes the administrative data classes, their values, and TRM input instructions.

Anchor: #i1012299

Administrative Data Classes

Administrative attributes are either continuous or non-continuous length data and represent various roadbed classes.

Anchor: #i1012312

Offices of Responsibility

TPP and the TRM section of each District office are the Offices of Primary Responsibility (OPR) for inputting and maintaining all administrative data.

This table lists each administrative attribute, its data class, and its roadbed class for which TPP is responsible:

Anchor: #i1017837TPP Administrative Data Classes

Attribute Name	Data Class	Roadbed Class
Administrative System	Continuous Length	CMR+F
Census Place Number	Continuous Length	CMR+F
City Number	Continuous Length	CMR+F
Control-Section	Continuous Length	CMR+F
County Number	Continuous Length	CMR+F
District Id	Continuous Length	CMR+F
FIPS Urban Area Number	Continuous Length	CMR+F

HPMS Current ID	Continuous Length	CMR+F
Metropolitan Planning Area	Continuous Length	CMR+F
Rural/Urban Values	Continuous Length	CMR+F
Secondary Route Designation	Non-continuous Length	CENTERLINE

This table lists each administrative attribute, its data class, and its roadbed class for which districts are responsible:

Anchor: #i1018125District Administrative Data Classes

Attribute Name	Data Class	Roadbed Class
Maintenance Status	Continuous Length	CMR+F
