Political Boundaries of NJ. nj_munis. The file has elements going back to 2001 using the DEP st_mun file. It includes updates to the various political boundaries files over the years. Many of the boundaries have been updated,, but not all. Some boundaries known coordinates are greatly divergent from the earlier files and will not be updated without approval of the State Planning Commission, or with the relase of a new state plan.

New Jersey 2012-2013 High Resolution Orthophotography, NAD83 NJ State Plane Feet, MrSID MG4

Source_Contribution:

New Jersey 2012-2013 High Resolution Orthophotography, NAD83 NJ State Plane Feet, MrSID MG4.Digital orthophotography of New Jersey in NJ State Plane Coordinate System NAD83 Coordinates, U.S. Survey Feet. The aerial photography of New Jersey was captured in March and April 2012. Multi-spectral digital orthophotography was produced at a scale of 1:2400 (1"=200') with a 1 foot pixel resolution for the entire state, totaling approximately 8,162 square miles..Digital orthophotography combines the image characteristics of a photograph with the geometric qualities of a map. Each digitized perspective aerial photograph is rectified for camera lens distortion, vertical displacement caused by terrain relief and variations in aircraft altitude and orientation.

State Owned, Protected Open Space and Recreation Areas in New Jersey, Edition 20160223 (Land_owner_openspace_state)

Source_Contribution:

This data set contains protected open space and recreation areas owned in fee simple interest by the State of New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP). Types of property in this data layer include parcels such as parks, forests, historic sites, natural areas and wildlife management areas. The data was derived from a variety of source maps including tax maps, surveys and even hand-drafted boundary lines on USGS topographic maps.

County Open Space and Recreation Areas in New Jersey, Edition 20160307 (Land_owner_openspace_county)

Source_Contribution:

This data set contains protected New Jersey open space and recreation areas that are either owned in fee simple interest by a county or are managed by a county but owned in fee by another governmental agency or nonprofit. These open space lands have either received funding through the Green Acres Local Assistance Program or are listed on a Green Acres approved Recreation and Open Space Inventory (ROSI). Types of open space property in this data layer include parks, conservation areas, preserves, historic sites, recreational fields, beaches, etc.

Source_Citation_Abbreviation: 14 Digit Hydrologic Unit Code Delineations for New Jersey
Source_Contribution:

The 14-digit hydrologic units (HUC14s) in New Jersey is a revision of the 2006 version of these units. This version corrects some boundaries to be consistent with a new hydrography coverage based on 1:2,400 aerial photographs (NJDEP, 2008). It also makes some changes to be more consistent with a new 12-digit hydrologic unit coverage (EPA, 2009). This editing process created 42 new HUC14s, deleted one inland HUC14 and five coastal HUC14s in the Delaware Bay, and changed over 100 boundaries. A report detailing these changes (Hoffman and Pallis, 2009) is available online . For programmatic reasons the 14-digit units are clipped to New Jersey's political boundary. HUC14 hydrologic units were first published by Ellis and Price (1995) and made available as a shape file by the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection soon afterword. Watershed boundaries were based on elevations and water courses from 1:24,000-scale (7.5-minute) USGS quadrangles. These were revised (NJDEP, 2006) by clipping the unit boundaries to the official NJ state boundary and addition of some additional identification information. Some boundaries were changed at that time to reflect errors found in the original coverage.

Mapping submitted by all 21 counties in the state was submitted and integrated into the plan mapping as appropriate through cross-acceptance. Mapping also has been submitted by local government in the process of completing both plan endorsem*nts and map amendments. Mapping has been submitted in both hard-copy maps as well as digital files. All mapping either hard-copy or digital is on file at the Office for Planning Advocacy.

NJDEP, Land-owner_openspace_gen: This data set contains protected open space and recreation areas administered by the State of New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP). Types of property in this data layer include parcels such as parks, forests, historic sites, natural areas, wildlife management areas and Natural Lands Trust. The data was derived from a variety of source maps including tax maps, surveys and even hand-drafted boundary lines on USGS topographic maps. These source materials vary in scale and level of accuracy. Due to the varied mapped sources and methods of data capture, this data set is limited in its ability to portray all open space lands accurately, particularly the parcels purchased prior to 1991.

NJDEP Land_owner_openspace_PADUS. The Open Space and Preservation Resources Inventory (OSPRI) database is currently comprised of state, local, nonprofit, and private open space provided by the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection, Green Acres Program and will be expanding to include other data sources in the future. The OSPRI database is submitted annually for incorporation into the USGS Gap Analysis Program, Protected Areas Database of the United States (PAD-US) and the National Conservation Easem*nt Database (NCED). This extraction from OSPRI is comprised of restrictions as well as land owned in fee, which have been aggregated to unit features. Database fields in the PAD-US and NCED schema deemed irrelevant at the state level were removed.

Process_Description:

Through the Cross-acceptance process, a series of 1:24000 film USGS quadrangle registered maps defining the Planning Area boundaries of the New Jersey State Development and Redevelopment Plan was created. Locations of the boundaries were originally refined using hardcopy orthophotouquads as produced by Markhurd Corp (1986). Later boundaries were digitized using digital orthophotos at 3-meter resolution (1991), and later still, using 1995 digital orthophotos at 1-meter resolution from USGS.
