Transportation data provides consultants, planners, resource managers and other county staff with information on the location of pavement centerlines and right-of-way lines within Columbia County. The information contained in this coverage is one of Wisconsin Land Information Program's foundational elements and supports the county's goals and objectives relating to land information as well as the county's information technology vision, mission, goals, strategies and plan.

Attribute accuracy is tested by digital comparison of the source data with display of the digital data attributes and the 1995 Digital Orthophotos. The Columbia County Land Information Office Geospatial Technologies Section checked 100% of the data for attribute accuracy.
This data set is topological structured for arcs for the entire Columbia County area. The geographic data represented by this coverage is stored according to a vector based data type. With a vector data structure, geographic entities are represented as point, lines, and areas depicted on a 2-dimensional surface. Each point is identified by a single x-y location; lines are identified by a sequence of x-y coordinates.
The features represented in this data set are, to the best knowledge of the Columbia County Land Information Office, representative of all administrative boundaries of this type represented in Columbia County. Data is updated continually using documents recorded with the Columbia County Register of Deeds.
Accuracy of this digital data is dependent upon the scale, date, and origin of the source material used to create this geographic data set.
Feature Lines and Attribute Data
Railroads centerlines in Columbia County were derived from the 1995 digital orthophotography project. The location of tracks that have been removed were determined first from the Tax Parcel maps as maintained by the Land Information Department and then by other sources of public records such as certified surveys, plats, and other documents of legal records. Location of non-existing tracks was then derived from the 1995 digital orthophotography were visible.
