Puerto Rico MapRaid

Welcome to the Puerto Rico MapRaid. I would like to first apologize there is no wiki for Puerto Rico, as there have been no real local editors. 2nd, I would also like to apologize for the lack of StreetView on the island. 3rd, I would like to apologize for the not so great SATIMG on the island, as well. 4th, I would like to apologize there is no good GIS map for PR, either.

Editing

The primary languages of Puerto Rico are English and Spanish. Everything should be in Spanish, unless noted otherwise.

Please use your best guess as to roads in the trees; turning on the GPS Points layer may help.

Map Resources

• ArcGIS Viewer (requires Microsoft Silverlight)
• Connect Puerto Rico
• For additional GIS resources, as well as ESRI (if it's available).

Places

All places are to be drawn fence line to fence line, as is the standard for the United States

Places should primarily be in Spanish and an alternative name for places of importance such as local airports, universities and hospitals.

City/Town Naming

• Official listing of local city/county municipalities

Places of Interest/Schools

• National Park Service registry of historic sites *
• Official listing of schools

* Not a thorough listing of historical sites. Additional sites may be found via National Register of Historic Places Program

Locking Standard

Place Lock Level Standards

PLACE TYPE	LOCK LEVEL
Hospitals / Urgent Care	5
Schools / Universities / Colleges	5
Military Installation / Airport	4
National & State Parks and Monuments	4
Police & Fire Dept	3
Gas Stations	3
Government Buildings / Consulates	3
City and Local Parks	2

All Places that have complete information (to include, at a minimum, address/city, phone number) are to be locked at Level 2. This is to prevent loss of data due to automatic acceptance of Place Update submissions from Trusted Users, or Place Update Request approvals from other editors without careful examination.

If you do not have a high enough enough rank to lock the place as indicated, please lock it as high as you can, and notify a higher rank AM, SM, CM, or Champ to lock it higher.

Roads

There is no FC for PR

All freeways are set to ground level. If two freeways cross each other, look at the actual intersection to discover the layers of the intersection

Any road that acts, looks, & feels like a freeway should be set to Freeway road type

In Puerto Rico MapRaid we have a set minimum standard for locking roads based on segment type. Any road of a certain segment type must be locked at least to the rank (level) in the chart below. Roads may be locked higher for protection and special situations (areas with construction, tricky design, frequent mistakes, imaging inaccuracies, and the like), but should not be locked lower. A great time to implement these locks is while bringing the road types of an area into compliance with the current US road type standards (FC and highway systems). Lock the roads based on type after they've been set to current US road type standards.

Puerto Rico MapRaid Minimum Locking Rank Standard

Segment Type	Statewide
Freeway	5
Ramp	Highest rank of connected segments
Major Highway	3
Minor Highway	3
Primary Street	2
Street	1 (Auto)
Private Road	1 (Auto)
• • • • Ferry • • • •	5
|-|-|-|-|-|-|-|-|-| Railroad |-|-|-|-|-|-|-|-|-|	2

Note: Do Not Mass Edit just to update locks to these standards, these can be adjusted as you find them while editing other aspects of the segments such as FC, speed limits, naming, etc.

Some segments still warrant higher locks and care should be taken when setting segment lock to these standards to look for and protect these special setups with higher locks. Some examples; segments which are part of BDP, U-turn prevention, or using micro-doglegs, or other complex intersection setups.
