StreetPro releases to date have incorporated feature type coding that is consistent but not necessarily related to a recognized standard. Precisely with an objective to align to recognized standards and add more 'depth' and 'intelligence' to its coding has developed a coding system that is progressively being applied to its range of data products globally - the micode schema.
This schema is a variation of the feature-coding schema in MIL-STD-2408, DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE STANDARD PRACTICE: MAPPING, CHARTING & GEODESY GLOSSARY OF FEATURE AND ATTRIBUTE DEFINITIONS (21 APR 95). The schema has been modified to be an eight- digit/three-part schema with its own definitions for the use of values within each part. The eight-digit code is made up of a two-digit Category code, followed by a two-digit Sub- category code, and then a four-digit Sub-feature code.
For example: Category + Subcategory + Sub-feature
10+07+0200 (This micode refers to POIs category with subcategory of Business Locations and sub-features as Hotel/Motel)
A MapInfo format micode lookup table is supplied with StreetPro.
