Easeline.shp is an arc shape file of mapped utility easements within the City of Bellingham.
The Arc Attribute Table stores the easement line type. Note: Only item fields of interest are shown in table below. All internal fields have not been described.
| Item | Type | Length | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| length | Float | 8 | Calculated length of arc in coverage units. |
| linecode | Character | 6 | Code designated type of line; in all cases, it will be ease for this dataset |
| accuracy code | Integer | 2 | Code corresponding to a range of measurements of accuracy representing the true location of a given property line as it relates to the City of Bellingham cadastral survey base. |
| source code | Integer | 4 | Code representing the source of the information used to add or update parcel lines on the map. |
| ease type | Character | 4 | The intended use of the easement - water, sewer, storm, trail, etc. |
The coverage is a combination of two sources:
The first is from an AutoCAD drawing maintained by the Engineering Survey section. Most of the easements with a type of 'un' (unknown) are from this source. These easements have been mapped accurately by deciphering the legal descriptions and mapping using cogo and the City cadastral as a mapping base.
The second source is from an on-going easement research and mapping project being performed by a city contractor. The easements are mapped in AutoCAD and converted to ArcInfo on a section-by-section basis. Most easements that have a specific designated type are from this project.
