Boundary TWG

Please join us for the Boundary TWG on Tuesday October 11 (notice that this is one week later than originally scheduled – we did not want it to overlap with the GIS conference in Boise).  Our office is currently focused on Next Generation 9-1-1 and so we are re-visiting the Counties dataset and start work on the Zip Codes.

• Previously we determined that the Census data will be the authoritative source for County boundaries in Idaho. While ultimately this will be the case, we need to talk about the best available data for each county right now, and work with Census to get the best available information into the Census dataset.
• Zip codes are a difficult layer even though a number of different datasets exist depicting zip codes. Has your county worked on zip codes with your post masters? Are you willing to share your zip code layer, experience and help other counties obtain the most correct zip codes?

Please join us to work towards improving county boundaries and the zip code layer for Idaho.
