Key Components of the GSS-I An integrated program that utilizes a partnership program for:
• Improved address coverage
• Annual, transaction-based address and spatial feature updates
• Enhanced quality assessment and measurement

Street/Feature Updates
Quality Measurement
The GSS-I Partnership Program • Launched in October 2012 • Opportunity for tribal, state, county, and local
governments to continually exchange address & spatial data with the Census Bureau
• Recognizes local governments as a definitive authority for quality address and street data within their communities
• Leverages the Census Bureau’s broad partner network to encourage participation

Benefits of Participation
4
Expanded ROI – encourages re-use of local government geospatial data
Reduces redundant federal data collection efforts
Increases usage of high-quality local government data for multiple federal
programs
Provides maximum input into the American Community Survey and Population Estimates Program

Consists of block tallies detailing: • What the partner provided • Number of records matched or added to the Census address list • Number of records not accepted • Total number of records currently in the MAF
Interactive Review and Update
10
• Digitizers interactively review the potential new and misaligned streets using the partner data and current imagery
• In this example, the green-blue
lines indicate street updates made by the Census Bureau based on the partner data
• The Census Bureau added 39
miles of new streets and modified 115 miles of misaligned streets based on this partner’s street centerline data
Street Centerline Updates
• 1,529.4 Miles of new roads added • Washington, DC to Julesburg, CO
• 4,013.5 Miles of updated roads • Washington, DC to Fairbanks, AK
• 5,542.9 total miles of feature updates • Across the US roundtrip

What is the American Community Survey?
A large, continuous survey that:
• produces characteristics of population and housing (similar to Census 2000 long form)
• produces estimates for small areas and small population groups
• samples approximately 3.54 million resident addresses per year (about 290,000 per month)
