A collection of water resource layers in Anoka County.

This dataset includes all 7 metro counties that have made their parcel data freely available without a license or fees.

This dataset is a compilation of tax parcel polygon and point layers assembled into a common coordinate system from Twin Cities, Minnesota metropolitan area counties. No attempt has been made to edgematch or rubbersheet between counties. A standard set of attribute fields is included for each county. The attributes are the same for the polygon and points layers. Not all attributes are populated for all counties.

NOTICE: The standard set of attributes changed to the MN Parcel Data Transfer Standard on 1/1/2019.
https://www.mngeo.state.mn.us/committee/standards/parcel_attrib/parcel_attrib.html

See section 5 of the metadata for an attribute summary.

Detailed information about the attributes can be found in the Metro Regional Parcel Attributes document.

The polygon layer contains one record for each real estate/tax parcel polygon within each county's parcel dataset. Some counties have polygons for each individual condominium, and others do not. (See Completeness in Section 2 of the metadata for more information.) The points layer includes the same attribute fields as the polygon dataset. The points are intended to provide information in situations where multiple tax parcels are represented by a single polygon. One primary example of this is the condominium, though some counties stacked polygons for condos. Condominiums, by definition, are legally owned as individual, taxed real estate units. Records for condominiums may not show up in the polygon dataset. The points for the point dataset often will be randomly placed or stacked within the parcel polygon with which they are associated.

The polygon layer is broken into individual county shape files. The points layer is provided as both individual county files and as one file for the entire metro area.

In many places a one-to-one relationship does not exist between these parcel polygons or points and the actual buildings or occupancy units that lie within them. There may be many buildings on one parcel and there may be many occupancy units (e.g. apartments, stores or offices) within each building. Additionally, no information exists within this dataset about residents of parcels. Parcel owner and taxpayer information exists for many, but not all counties.

This is a MetroGIS Regionally Endorsed dataset.

Additional information may be available from each county at the links listed below. Also, any questions or comments about suspected errors or omissions in this dataset can be addressed to the contact person at each individual county.

This data set contains polygons representing the parcel boundaries in Anoka County. The parcel lines are initially drawn by the Anoka County Surveyor's Office using coordinate geometry. The parcel lines are then converted to polygons and added to the GIS parcel basemap where there are given attributes. Parcels are split and merged based on PIN number. Right-of-way (ROW) polygons are removed from the data set so the road right-of-ways are open spaces.

This dataset is a compilation of tax parcel polygon and point layers from the seven Twin Cities, Minnesota metropolitan area counties of Anoka, Carver, Dakota, Hennepin, Ramsey, Scott and Washington. The seven counties were assembled into a common coordinate system. No attempt has been made to edgematch or rubbersheet between counties. A standard set of attribute fields is included for each county. (See section 5 of the metadata). The attributes are the same for the polygon and points layers. Not all attributes are populated for all counties.

This is an annual version of the MetroGIS Regional Parcel Dataset that can be used with other annual versions to do change analysis and time series investigations. This dataset is intended to contain all updates to each county's parcel data through the end of 2004. It was originally published as the 'January 1, 2005' version of the dataset. See the Currentness Reference below and the Entity and Attribute information in Section 5 for more information about the dates for specific aspects of the dataset.

The polygon layer contains one record for each real estate/tax parcel polygon within each county's parcel dataset. Some counties will polygons for each individual condominium, and others do not.

This dataset is a compilation of address point data from Minnesota suppliers that have opted-in for their address point data to be included in this dataset.

It includes the following 44 suppliers that have opted-in to share their data openly as of the publication date of this dataset: Aitkin County, Anoka County, Benton County, Carver County, Cass County, Chippewa County, Chisago County, Clay County, Cook County, Dakota County, Douglas County, Fillmore County, Grant County, Hennepin County, Houston County, Isanti County, Itasca County, Koochinching County, Lac qui Parle County, Lake County, Le Sueur County, Lyon County, Marshall County, McLeod County, Morrison County, Mower County, Murray County, Otter Tail County, Pipestone County, Polk County, Pope County, Ramsey County, Renville County, Rock County, Saint Louis County, Scott County, Sherburne County, Stearns, Stevens County, Waseca County, Washington County, Wright County, and Yellow Medicine County.

The two sources of address point data are the Minnesota Next Generation 9-1-1 (NG9-1-1) Program, in collaboration with local data suppliers, and the MetroGIS Metro Address Points Dataset which is on the Minnesota Geospatial Commons:

The Minnesota NG9-1-1 Program enterprise database provides the data outside of the Metro Region which is provide by the suppliers. The data have been aggregated into a single dataset which implements the MN NG9-1-1 GIS Data Model (https://ng911gis-minnesota.hub.arcgis.com/documents/79beb1f9bde84e84a0fa9b74950f7589/about ).

Only data which have meet the requirements for supporting NG9-1-1 are in the statewide aggregate GIS data. MnGeo extracts the available data, applies domain translations, and transforms it to UTM Zone 15 to comply with the GAC Address Point attribute schema: https://www.mngeo.state.mn.us/committee/address/address_standard.html.

The MetroGIS Metro Address Points Dataset was created by a joint collaborative project involving the technical and managerial GIS staff from the ten Metropolitan Counties (Anoka, Carver, Chisago, Dakota, Hennepin, Isanti, Ramsey, Scott, Sherburne, and Washington), the Metropolitan Emergency Services Board, MetroGIS and the Metropolitan Council. The data are pulled in from the Minnesota Geospatial Commons: https://gisdata.mn.gov/dataset/us-mn-state-metrogis-loc-address-points

‘Supplier’ is a term used throughout this document. A supplier will typically be a county, but it could also be a public safety answering point (PSAP), region, or tribal nation. The supplier is the agency which provides the individual datasets for the aggregated dataset. The loc_addresses_open_metadata feature layer will contain the geometry/shape of the supplier boundaries, supplier name, supplier type, and feature count.

Aggregation Process:
1. Transfer NG9-1-1 data from the DPS Enterprise database.
2. Download the latest data from the Geospatial Commons for MetroGIS.
3. Extract, Translate, and Load (ETL) the data to the GAC Address Point Standard schema.
4. Combine NG9-1-1 data with MetroGIS data.
5. Filter the data for the Opt-In suppliers

The USGS Topo base map service from The National Map is a combination of contours, shaded relief, woodland and urban tint, along with vector layers, such as geographic names, governmental unit boundaries, hydrography, structures, and transportation, to provide a composite topographic base map. Data sources are the National Atlas for small scales, and The National Map for medium to large scales.

This shapefile represents the School District Boundaries of Anoka County. The data was derived from the Anoka County COGO Parcel data layer using the Levy Code field from the property records tax extract.

This map features recent high-resolution National Agriculture Imagery Program (NAIP) imagery for the United States and is optimized for display quality and performance. The map also includes a reference layer.This NAIP imagery is from the USDA Farm Services Agency. The NAIP imagery in this layer has been visually enhanced and published as a tile layer for optimal display performance.NAIP imagery collection occurs on an annual basis during the agricultural growing season in the continental United States. Approximately half of the US is collected each year and each state is typically collected every other year. The NAIP program aims to make the imagery available to governmental agencies and to the public within a year of collection.This layer will be updated each year, as the latest imagery is received and processed. Currently, it is primarily composed of NAIP imagery from 2018 and 2019.Use the NAIP Imagery Metadata layer as an overlay to access detailed information about each image in this tile layer. With the metadata layer, a user can point and click any location within the continental US to access information such as collection date and resolution for the imagery at that location.While this tile layer is intended for visualization, the Living Atlas also provides the following NAIP layers for image analysis:USA NAIP Imagery: Natural ColorUSA NAIP Imagery: Color InfraredUSA NAIP Imagery: NDVI

The GIS middle school attendance boundary is a digital representation of the middle school attendance boundary lines in Anoka County. This dataset was initially built from coordinate geometry (COGO) line work originating in the Anoka County Surveyors office. Updates and changes are initiated in the GIS office when boundaries have been changed by individual school districts. The attendance boundary line work is edited as needed. Last edit: 11/2013.

This data set contains polygons representing the city parks in Anoka County. The data includes parks, trail corridors, natural areas and open space. A comprehensive update of this data set is typically done with each new aerial flight. Changes to the data set are verified with local parks staff.

A County Geologic Atlas (CGA) project is a study of a county's geology, and its mineral and ground-water resources. The information collected during the project is used to develop maps, data-base files, and reports. This same information is also produced as digital files. The map information is formatted as geographic information system (GIS) files with associated data bases. The maps and reports are also reproduced as portable document files (PDFs) that can be opened on virtually any computer using the free Acrobat Reader from Adobe.com. All of the digital files for the CGA's can be downloaded from the University of Minnesota Digital Conservancy. The majority of the files can also be viewed and queried through the use of this Story Map.Atlas information is commonly used in planning and environmental protection programs, as an educational resource, and by industries involved in water and mineral resources. It represents a comprehensive, detailed compilation of geologic data and interpretations within a county. The distribution and character of geologic materials determine how and where water enters the earth, and where it is stored in aquifers that can supply our needs. Geologic maps are a key element in delineating those flow paths and in relating land use to water quality. The atlas also provides a framework and terminology to support more detailed, site-specific studies. The records of water wells drilled in the area are an important source of data for constructing the maps and for understanding the distribution and use of ground water in the county. A data base of the information from those wells is one of the atlas products, and it can be queried with the GIS files to yield valuable insights for managing the ground-water resource.The atlas is also useful to non-professionals who simply wish to learn more about the geology of the county. It is a one-stop, comprehensive collection of information in a variety of forms and styles that should be useful to anyone with an interest in earth science or the county.The geologic data and maps are produced and distributed by the Minnesota Geological Survey (MGS) as Part A of an Atlas. The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources follows with an investigation of the quantity, quality, and pollution sensitivity of ground water. Their products are distributed as Part B of the atlas, at a later date. If necessary, a report with additional information that was not possible to include on the limited space of the printed maps is produced by MGS as Part C of, or included as a supplement to, an atlas. The Atlas CD or DVD, which is available online at the Digital Conservancy, includes all the atlas products developed by the Minnesota Geological Survey.
