Summary

A nearest neighbor analysis of the Incorporated Areas (cities) in Three County Area: Snohomish;Pierce;King providing the neighboring city names for each city.

Used to determing neighboring city polygons for each city in the 3 county area.

The Polygons must be touching.

i.e. Select src_NAME = 'Seattle" and you will get 3 neighboring cites: Shoreline, Burien, and Tukwila.

Description

The table is derived from the compilation of city jurisdictional information from three counties: King, Pierce and Snohomish.

Uses the best available information from each of the 3 counties to produce the composite product.

Updated whenever changes are made to any one of the source data sets.

For King County this will be whenever CITY_AREA (parent is CITY_ANNEX) is updated to Spatial Data Warehouse.

Pierce and Snohomish updates are shared with King County on quarterly to semi-annual basis.

Updates are made so that the King County portion of this composite is synchronous with the information in the master King County jurisdiction layer.

Final wrapup script is used to create: CITY_3CO_AREA - cities only across three counties CITY_3CO_UNINC_AREA - cities and unincorporated area across three counties CITY_3CO_JURISDICTION - unpulblished versioin of CITY_3CO_UNINC_AREA that is used by DOT-Transit for internal applications.

4/1/2008

Built first edition from new workflow.

Published to SDW.

Data currency valid as: King County - 200802 Snohomish County - 200712 Pierce County - 200710.
4/1/2008

Workflow was revamped to incorporate automated data import, appending and dissolve.

Though this automated method does not produce as clean a data set as the previous manual effort, the new method allows more frequent updates that can be tied directly to when any of the source data is republished.

In addition, as the Pierce and Snohomish County source data do not include a unincorporated polygon this information is not longer maintained as part of the composite.

The main steps of the routine are: 1.

Import the source components, dropping all items except for jurisdiction name.

Standardizing NAME item and standardizing case of values.

2.

Append the modified components to a single target template.

3.

Dissolve on NAME to remove boundaries within cities that cross county boundaries.
