I get the concept, but I'm having trouble setting up my tables for the routes, and I don't know how to connect the routes with the base road data. This is a pavement assessment project, where I have 4 segments of a street that have been assigned a rating, based on distant increments (see matrix image). I do not have any route or events set yet, because I don't know how. Everytime I try I'm getting error messages about the length from the road file. I'll be available to communicate any time if anyone online is able to help.</P><P>Thank you,</P><P>Joshua</P><P></P><P><IMG alt="Pavement ratings and _to/_from distances." class="jive-emoji image-1 jive-image j-img-original" src="/legacyfs/online/473425_Pavement matrix.PNG" /></P><P><IMG alt="Road shape file given by county" class="jive-emoji jive-image image-2 j-img-original" src="https://community.esri.com/legacyfs/online/473441_roads.PNG" /></P><P><A href="https://community.esri.com/migrated-users/284587">Vikhyat Gupta</A>‌ (I was given your name by one of our GIS guys saying you were very helpful)</P></BODY></HTML> Thu, 14 Nov 2019 20:26:01 GMT JoshuaHoynes 2019-11-14T20:26:01Z Linear Referencing beginner help https://community.esri.com/t5/roads-and-highways-questions/linear-referencing-beginner-help/m-p/797863#M75 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>I've never used linear referencing, and I've gone through all of the online tutorials/videos, and I'm still having trouble wrapping my mind around it.
