Feature Names Relationship File Record Layout

Overview -- Scroll section

The Feature Names relationship file contains a record for each feature name-edge combination, and includes the feature name attributes. The edge to which a Feature Names relationship file record applies can be determined by linking to the All Lines shapefile on the permanent edge identifier (ID) attribute. Multiple Feature Names relationship table records can link to the same edge. For example, a road edge could link to U.S. Hwy 22 and Rathburn Road. The linear feature to which the feature name applies is identified by the linear feature identifier (LINEARID) attribute. Multiple feature names may exist for the same edge. Linear features are not included in the data set, but could be constructed using the All Lines shapefile and the relationship tables. Note that the FCC in this relationship file refers to the specific Feature Class Code associated with this linear feature and feature name. If the edge is both a road and a rail feature, the name associated with the rail feature will carry a rail feature FCC. If there are any address ranges on the edge, they apply only to the designated street features.
