Roads
Description
As the roads were not categorized by their road type, a calculated field was needed to generate the road type for the roads based on the name of the road. The cartographic technique used to categorize the roads by the RD_DESC was hue. That is because the RD_DESC data is nominal. To represent the roads on the map, lines are the best way to pinpoint the exact location of the roads.
