Table 1 Road Segment Attributes Appendix A: Attribution Mapping editors can apply many attributes to features; however, a subset of attributes are required to meet the needs of the Community Map of Canada and for NG9-1-1 users. ese users include emergency service personnel, disaster and response man- agement teams, transportation (including inter-modal services such as rail and air transportation) and land use planning groups. In the following tables, we provide notation to highlight important requirements: • Attributes marked with a check mark in the NENA column are require- ments for NG9-1-1 as set by NENA. • ose marked with a red asterisk '*' denote a database domain table that contains related attribute values. All the tables representing these domains are found in Appendix B. • Finally for the sake of brevity, some attributes that repeat numerically are simply listed as (x5) to denote that attribute is repeated incremen- tally five times. A.1 Data Model Attributes is table includes attributes required for the Community Map of Canada and to also meet NENA's Standard for the NG9-1-1 GIS Data Model. e data model attri- butes and its corresponding information are current at the time of this revision; however, it is strongly recommended that the latest version of the NENA data model be consulted.
