Digital map (FGDB and/or GML) of the HK road network with road classifications
Dear Highways Department,
Referring to Appendix G, H and J of Annual Traffic Census 2021 (https://www.td.gov.hk/filemanager/en/con...), I would like to enquire if you have the digital map (FGDB and/or GML) of the HK road network with road classifications ie. EX - Expressway, UT- Urban Trunk Road, LD - Local Distributor etc.
I have searched extensively in Road Network Data (https://data.gov.hk/en-data/dataset/hk-t...) but do not contain such fields.
I have also read through all the data dictionaries of iB series Digital Map (https://open.hkmapservice.gov.hk/OpenDat...) and they do not contain such information on road types under road classifications.
I would be grateful if you could provide the digital map (FGDB and/or GML) of the HK road network with road classifications ie. EX - Expressway, UT- Urban Trunk Road, LD - Local Distributor etc.
Yours faithfully,
N Cheung
