I am in the process of teaching myself techniques and methods of network-based analysis and representation, and I've stumbled into a problem that I haven't been able to solve through googling and reading.
Software Available:
- ArcGIS 10.4.1
- QGIS 2.14.1
- ArcGIS Pro 1.4.0
Data:
- Texas Department of Transportation's RHiNO dataset: http://www.txdot.gov/inside-txdot/division/transportation-planning/roadway-inventory.html
Problem:
Because the data is a centerline road network, there are visual gaps in the data when displayed as-is. There are attributes in the associated table for road width, offset, number of lanes, etc. that would probably be useful in depicting the road network more accurately. For example, I want IH-10 to display as a split double line to represent both directions of travel with the appropriate offset based on the attributes in the table, similar to how Google Maps, Apple Maps, and OpenStreetMaps display their data.
Methods Attempted:
- Symbol Levels
- Cartographic Representation
First, is this possible? Second, what is it called? I would imagine that I'd be able to find information on it with the correct process name, but I haven't been able to find anything yet.
