Description: This data set is intended to contain the centerlines with and for a short distance around the City of Buena Park. It was created with the intention of being fully compatible with the current NENA standards for address points. See "NENA Standard for NG9-1-1 GIS Data Model," document NENA-STA-006.1.1-2020 available at: https://www.nena.org/page/NG911GISDataModel Please contact Please contact the Buena Park GIS Division for any questions about this data set. Information on the NENA NG9-1-1 Project can be found on their website. A brief extract from the project is below:In the past 20 years, advancements in modern communications technology have created the need for a more advanced system to access emergency care. While the existing 9-1-1 system has been a success story for more than 30 years, it has been stretched to its limit as technology advances. New wireless and IP-based communications devices are being developed at a rapid rate, offering capabilities such as text and video messaging. Unfortunately, the current 9-1-1 system was never intended to receive calls and data from these new and emerging technologies.As a result, through cumbersome adaptations, E9-1-1 is being asked to perform functions it was not designed to handle. In short, the nation’s 9-1-1 systems are in need of a significant overhaul.NENA identified this need in 2000, published the Future Path Plan in 2001, and began development activities toward this end in 2003.
