Process Description:
The Bureau of Transportation Statistics files were downloaded from the National Transportation Atlas Databases 1999 disk. These files were converted to Arcview shapefiles using the ntadconv.avx extension that is contained on the disk. The additional attribute tables that were included on the disk were joined to the tables of the original shapefiles. These joins were characterized by both 1:1 and 1:many relationships.
