Shapefile & Oslfile Data Model

To understand how the various Shapefile files are linked and inter-related, refer to the MultiNet® Oracle & Shapefile Relational Data Model included in your delivery. The following explains the meaning of the possible relations between tables indicated by relational arrows in the Shapefile Data Model.

Figure: Relational Arrows

Example: Consider the Relation between the Signpost Table (sg) and the Signpost Information Table (si):

Figure: Signpost Table and Signpost Information Relation

The above relation means that every element of sg is related to multiple elements in si, and every element in si is related to exactly one element in sg. In other words, each Signpost can contain one or more sections of information: an airport pictogram and a parking pictogram. Each pictogram is a different record in si. However, each pictogram in si refers to exactly one Signpost.

File Definitions

Brief descriptions of MultiNet® Shapefile files are provided in this user guide. File identifiers are in parenthesis next to the file names. Attribute descriptions are included in the MultiNet® Shapefile Specification document on this documentation DVD. Note that in Shapefile and OSL formats:
  • If a feature attribute is not captured for a geographical area, the field in the .dbf file is empty.
  • If an entire feature is not captured for a geographical area (e.g., *a3, *a4 for the United States), the files are delivered, but will contain no data.
  • Extended file field definitions below appear under <FIELD NAME> text.
