Re: [CTPP] Question about OMB initiative on combining statistical areas

by Nanda Srinivasan

OMB issued a Federal Register Notice for the new definition of MSAs in December 2000. This called for the creation of metropolitan, and micropolitan areas.

Re: [CTPP] TAZ geography

by Chuck Purvis

Martha: Yes, the TAZ boundaries from the Census Bureau's web site are "generalized" boundaries, intended for mapping at a very small scale, say, 1:1000000. Where TAZ boundaries tend to zig-zag, the Bureau has removed both the zig and the zag. Again, this is OK for mapping at very small scales, but could be a problem when zooming into a particular county or community. The accurate boundaries can be derived from TIGER/Line files, and won't have the generalizations and "smoothing out" of boundaries. You can get these from ESRI's web site at: http://www.esri.com/data/download/census2000_tigerline/index.html (Note: the link from geographynetwork.com now points to this ESRI page.) Chuck Purvis, MTC >>> Martha Kile <mkile(a)mwcog.org> 09/30/02 03:26PM >>> Has anyone had problems using the shape files or E00 files for TAZ boundaries available on the Census website? We have noticed that some of our TAZ boundaries look strange, as if there is a problem with collapsing polygons. Do I need to create the TAZ boundaries myself from the TIGER files? Any guidance on this would be greatly appreciated.

Re: [CTPP] TIP/STIP management application

by Daryl Scott

I started the thread about the TIP/STIP management application, and I want to put it to an end. I apologize for my poor judgement. The CTPP list serve is intended for CTPP and Census data matters. I included Elaine Marakami's message to the CTPP list serve about the Association of Metropolitan Planning Organizations (AMPO) list serve. If anyone on this list serve wants to continue the discussion about the TIP/STIP application, please use the AMPO list serve instead. Details are below.

For lack of another electronic forum, the CTPP listserv has become a place for people to discuss MPO issues unrelated to Census data. However, we would like to keep the CTPP listserv focused on CTPP and Census data.
