K-42 (Kansas Highway)
K-42 is a east–west state highway in the U.S. state of Kansas. Its western terminus is at U.S. Route 281 (US-281) in Sawyer and the eastern terminus is at Interstate 235 (I-235) in Wichita. Along the way K-42 intersects K-14, a major north–south highway, in Rago and K-2 east of Norwich. The highway is a two-lane highway for most of its length with the exception of the section within Wichita, which is a four-lane divided highway. K-42 was first designated as a state highway in 1926, and at that time extended from east of Coates east to US-81 west of Belle Plaine. By 1928, K-42 was realigned to turn north by Milton, then continue to slightly west of Clearwater where it turned northeast and ended in Wichita. Also by 1928, K-8 was realigned to the east to go through Sawyer instead of Coats, which truncated K-42's western terminus to Sawyer. By 1939, K-8 was renumbered as US-281. The entire length was paved by 1957. K-2 overlapped K-42 from east of Norwich to its ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

Geographic Names Information System
The Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) is a database of name and locative information about more than two million physical and cultural features throughout the United States and its territories, Antarctica, and the associated states of the Marshall Islands, Federated States of Micronesia, and Palau. It is a type of gazetteer. It was developed by the United States Geological Survey (USGS) in cooperation with the United States Board on Geographic Names (BGN) to promote the standardization of feature names. Data were collected in two phases. Although a third phase was considered, which would have handled name changes where local usages differed from maps, it was never begun. The database is part of a system that includes topographic map names and bibliographic references. The names of books and historic maps that confirm the feature or place name are cited. Variant names, alternatives to official federal names for a feature, are also recorded. Each feature receives a per ...

Federal Information Processing Standards
The Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) of the United States are a set of publicly announced standards that the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has developed for use in computer systems of non-military, American government agencies and contractors. FIPS standards establish requirements for ensuring computer security and interoperability, and are intended for cases in which suitable industry standards do not already exist. Many FIPS specifications are modified versions of standards the technical communities use, such as the American National Standards Institute (ANSI), the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), and the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). Specific areas of FIPS standardization The U.S. government has developed various FIPS specifications to standardize a number of topics including: * Codes, e.g., FIPS county codes or codes to indicate weather conditions or emergency indications.

Area Code 316
Area code 316 is the telephone area code in the North American Numbering Plan (NANP) for the city of Wichita, Kansas, and surrounding communities. The area code was one of the original NANP area codes and formerly served all of southern Kansas. Today it is an enclave area code, in that it is surrounded by area code 620. History Despite its relatively modest population, Kansas was divided into two numbering plan areas (NPAs) when the original North American Numbering Plan was established in 1947. Under a preliminary plan, area codes were to be assigned sequentially based on geography and Kansas received area codes 617 and 618. When the final plan was adopted In October 1947, Kansas' two numbering plan areas were redrawn. The southern half (Wichita, Dodge City, Emporia, Garden City) received 316, while the northern half (Kansas City, Topeka, Lawrence, Salina, Hays) got 913. Long-distance dialing by subscribers using area codes would not be implemented until late 1951 in New Jers ...

North American Numbering Plan
The North American Numbering Plan (NANP) is a telephone numbering plan for twenty-five regions in twenty countries, primarily in North America and the Caribbean. This group is historically known as World Zone 1 and has the international calling code ''1''. Some North American countries, most notably Mexico, do not participate in the NANP. The NANP was originally devised in the 1940s by the American Telephone and Telegraph Company (AT&T) for the Bell System and the independent telephone operators in North America. The goal was to unify the diverse local numbering plans that had been established in the preceding decades and prepare the continent for direct-dialing of calls by customers without the involvement of telephone operators. AT&T continued to administer the numbering plan until the breakup of the Bell System, when administration was delegated to the North American Numbering Plan Administrator (NANPA), a service that has been procured from the private sector by the Fede ...

Platted
In the United States, a plat ( or ) (plan) is a cadastral map, drawn to scale, showing the divisions of a piece of land. United States General Land Office surveyors drafted township plats of Public Lands Surveys to show the distance and bearing between section corners, sometimes including topographic or vegetation information. City, town or village plats show subdivisions broken into blocks with streets and alleys. Further refinement often splits blocks into individual lots, usually for the purpose of selling the described lots; this has become known as subdivision. After the filing of a plat, legal descriptions can refer to block and lot-numbers rather than portions of sections. In order for plats to become legally valid, a local governing body, such as a public works department, urban planning commission, or zoning board must normally review and approve them. In gardening history, in both varieties of English (and in French etc), a "plat" means a section of a formal part ...
