Roads Need Zero Ranges

The Roads Need Zero Ranges quality control (QC Quality Control) check identifies and removes address range values from roads and replaces those values with 0. The user must flag the segment to be updated with a 701 or 702 exception code in their exception code field.

The 701 and 702 exception codes work as follows.

  • The 701 exception code replaces the road’s left side ranges with 0.

  • The 702 exception code replaces the road’s right side ranges with 0.

  • When both the 701 and 702 exception codes are used, the road's left and right sides are both replaced with 0.

    Note that the records are zeroed out before any data validation QC checks run.

This QC check may be required when your data contains placeholder range values due to the needs of other consuming applications such as CAD Computer-aided Dispatch. A computer-based system that aids Public Safety Answering Point (PSAP) staff by automating selected dispatch and record keeping activities. systems, but in reality the road range itself should be represented by a zero address range for Next Generation 9-1-1 purposes.
