Mapping Resources - GIS Data

GIS Data for 81 of Tennessee's 95 counties can be found on the state property viewer website. In addition, the counties listed in the table below maintain their own GIS websites. Some of these counties are not available on the state website, while a few can be viewed on both the state site as well as on their own site.

Speed Limits

According to Tennessee Code Annotated 55-8-152, the following maximum speed limits apply in Tennessee, with individual counties and municipalities setting lower speeds on individual roads as needed:

Interstates and limited access freeways (urban and rural): 70 MPH
Divided highways: 65 MPH
Undivided and two-lane roads: 55 MPH
Residential streets: 30 MPH

Before verifying a speed limit in the editor, it MUST be confirmed either with the street view reticle in WME, reports from "on the ground", or using data provided by individual municipalities if available.

A list of speed limit data collected by editors can be found on this page.

-{{RootPage2}} has adopted a '''1/4/10 day''' schedule when responding to Update Requests.
+=== Traffic and Construction Sources ===
-[[Image:Request pin open-low.png|left]] New URs should be responded to as soon as possible. If the solution is obvious, then fix the issue, leave a comment, and close out the report as "'''Solved'''". Otherwise, if there's '''ANY''' ambiguity to the problem, then leave a comment asking for further clarification. This starts the UR response clock.
-{{clear}}
-[[Image:Request pin open-med.png|left]] If the reporter hasn't responded within '''4 days''' of your initial comment, then leave a gentle reminder to the reporter that you will close the report soon if you don't get a response.

-[[Image:Request pin open-med.png|left]] If the reporter does respond to your initial comment, then the response clock starts over as you continue the conversation.
-{{clear}}
-[[Image:Request pin open-high.png|left]] If the reporter still hasn't responded after '''10 days''', then leave a comment letting them know that you're closing the issue, and close the report as "'''Not identified'''".
-{{clear}}
-[[Image:Request pin open-high.png|left]] If you come across a UR that is older than 10 days that has not been touched by another editor (common in more rural areas), apologize for the late response and see if the reporter still remembers anything about the problem. If they can't, or they don't respond after 4 days, close the report as "'''Not identified'''".
+*[http://www.fhwa.dot.gov/trafficinfo/tn.htm Tennessee Traffic and Road Conditions]
-Other things to remember about handling URs:
+=== Mapping Resources - GIS Data ===
-* Keep responses short; some folks might be responding in the Waze app and reading long responses can be a pain!
+GIS Data for 81 of Tennessee's 95 counties can be found on the [http://tnmap.tn.gov/assessment/ state property viewer website]. In addition, the counties listed in the table below maintain their own GIS websites. Some of these counties are not available on the state website, while a few can be viewed on both the state site as well as on their own site.
-* You should '''always''' leave a comment on a UR, even if you're just closing out old reports.
-* Plugins such as [http://wiki.waze.com/wiki/Scripts#UR_Overview_Plus_.28URO.2B.29 URO+], [http://wiki.waze.com/wiki/Scripts#UR_Comments UR Comments], and [http://www.waze.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=819&t=125216 UR-MP Tracking] can make responding to URs much easier. Check them out!
-* Be sure to review the Wiki documentation on [[Update_Requests_in_Waze_Map_Editor|Handling Update Requests]], especially the section about [[Update_Requests_in_Waze_Map_Editor#The_resolution_process_.2F_Etiquette|Response Etiquette]].

-While {{RootPage2}} does not have any specific laws concerning speed limits (other than not exceeding them), we've decided to mark the speed limits '''at the sign'''. This means that, wherever there is a regulatory speed limit sign, the segment should be split at that point and the new speed limit marked on the new segment just beyond the sign, as specified in the [[Speed_limits/USA#Where_speed_limits_change|national standard]].

+| Bradley || no || [http://maps.bradleygis.net/taxparcelviewer/ GIS viewer]
-Also, though {{RootPage2}} does define default speed limits for "business or residence districts" (25mph), speed limits should only be set on a segment if there is an enforceable speed limit sign somewhere on that road. Do '''NOT''' set default speed limits on roads with no speed limit signs, as this could cause confusion among drivers.
