Description: The linework layer is one of the core components of the Seattle Campus GIS base maps produced by Engineering Services. It deliniates the various pathways, roads, landscape parcels and buildings on campus. In this way it demarcates the physical features on the campus. This is not a topographic layer. The base linework was extracted from AutoCAD and the background map that the Engineering Services Civil Engineer updates on a semiannual basis. All of the GIS base components (annotations, buildings and linework) originate in CAD and are brought into GIS.

Description: The building layer is one of the base components of the Seattle Campus GIS base maps that are produced by Engineering Services. It serves as a reference layer to orient map users by providing the location of buildings on campus. Unlike the other base components the building layer includes buildings from all UW campuses not just the Seattle Campus. In addition, the building layer is used to display a multitide of department specific information through spatial views.For the Seattle Campus buildings the spatial locations are produced in AutoCAD by the Engineering Services Civil Engineer and are then pulled into GIS on a semiannual basis.
