Prior to this effort, many parks in the Northeast Region did not have documented transportation asset location data. While individual parks throughout the region may have had disaggregated information on their transportation assets and their locations, such information was not available in full as a single GIS shapefile for NPS employees to access. The complete geocoded dataset resulting from this project will help ensure the Long Range Transportation Plan (LRTP) update for the NER to be accurate and up-to-date, allowing for the measurement and monitoring of all transportation assets in the region. This report provides details on the data collection process of these missing transportation assets and manipulating this data to be mapped in GIS format
