Working in collaboration with the Kansas Legislative Research Division and the US Census Bureau, DASC led the collection of voting district boundary updates from county clerks across the state. Updates were obtained in both paper and digital formats. Counties maintaining a voting districts layer in their GIS system simply provided a copy of their digital data. Counties that didn't have a GIS file were provided a large-format plot and asked to annotate the boundary updates on the map. DASC was responsible for integrating the changes into the Census Bureau database and submitting them for review. As of the date of this report, all county updates have been processed, submitted, and approved the Census Bureau.

The final verification phase of the project, scheduled for January — February, 2010, will provide an opportunity for the county clerks to review their voting district boundaries to ensure the updates were made correctly.
