Spartanburg Area Transportation Planning Geospatial and Data Analysis Maps 

Browse geospatial data that is part of the SPATS collection. SPATS uses geospatial analysis to assist us in long and short-range planning decision making. Transportation planning requires the use of many databases, both public and private, to study transportation facilities and networks, flows of people, goods, and vehicles over the transportation networks; and social, economic, and environmental conditions that affect or are affected by transportation networks. Please feel free to use this analysis for visualization and analysis purposes in your projects with your own tools.
