The TIGER/Line shapefiles and related database files (.dbf) are an extract of selected geographic and cartographic information from the U.S. Census Bureau's Master Address File / Topologically Integrated Geographic Encoding and Referencing (MAF/TIGER) Database (MTDB). The MTDB represents a seamless national file with no overlaps or gaps between parts, however, each TIGER/Line shapefile is designed to stand alone as an independent data set, or they can be combined to cover the entire nation. Face refers to the areal (polygon) topological primitives that make up MTDB. A face is bounded by one or more edges; its boundary includes only the edges that separate it from other faces, not any interior edges contained within the area of the face. The Topological Faces Shapefile contains the attributes of each topological primitive face. Each face has a unique topological face identifier (TFID) value. Each face in the shapefile includes the key geographic area codes for all geographic areas for which the Census Bureau tabulates data for both the 2020 Census and the annual estimates and surveys. The geometries of each of these geographic areas can then be built by dissolving the face geometries on the appropriate key geographic area codes in the Topological Faces Shapefile.

This GIS dataset contains growth tier maps adopted by local (county and municipal) jurisdictions under SB236. Data are generally collected from county and municipal jurisdictions by the Maryland Department of Planning (Planning) or digitized by Planning in coordination with local jurisdictions. For more information about SB236, see Planning’s Septics Law Implementation Website at https://planning.maryland.gov/Pages/OurWork/SB236Implementation.aspxThis document describes standard operating procedures for aggregating growth tier map GIS data. These procedures may not apply to historical data (i.e. records for which both the SRC_DATE and GIS_SRC fields are blank). For example, Planning may have realigned historical data from local jurisdictions to parcel polygon boundaries or used different procedures to represent municipal tiers when municipalities concurred with county tier maps.Planning generally requests updated GIS data once a jurisdiction notifies Planning that a growth tier map has been amended. Aggregated data may be outdated or incomplete if Planning has not yet received or processed GIS updates from jurisdictions. Planning generally does not alter geometries received from the local jurisdictions except to divide municipal tiers at the county boundary (see JURSCODE field description). This dataset may contain overlap where multiple jurisdictions designate tiers in the same area.Fields include:JURSCODE – MdProperty Viewjurisdiction code (four-letter county or Baltimore City code). For tiers designated by counties, this is the jurisdiction responsible for designating the growth tier. For tiers designated by municipalities, this is the jurisdiction in which the growth tier is physically located. Municipal tiers that cross counties are divided at the county boundary so this field can be populated. See the MUNI field for the municipality responsible for designating a municipal tier.County – Full name of the jurisdiction represented by the JURSCODE.MUNI – The name of the municipality responsible for designating the tier. This field will be blank (‘ ‘) if the tier has been designated by a county. The MUNI field is formatted consistently with municipality names in the Planning’s municipal boundary datasets. When municipalities adopt tier maps by concurring with county tiers instead of submitting tier data independently, the MUNI field remains blank within the entire county tier map dataset. Depending on internal needs, an independent municipal tier dataset may or may not be generated by Planning and included within the aggregated tiers.TIER – Growth tier identifier used by the source jurisdiction and standardized as Tier 1, Tier 1A, Tier 2, Tier 2A, Tier 3, and Tier 4. May include additional alphabetical annotations used by the jurisdictions such as Tier 2B. If the TIER_CODE field is 99, the TIER field retains the descriptor provided by the jurisdiction, which may be a blank or null value.TIER_CODE – Integer field containing the growth tier standardized by Planning: 1 (Tier I); 11 (Tier IA or any other annotated version of Tier I, such as IB, etc.); 2 (Tier II), 22 (Tier IIA or any other annotated version of Tier II, such as IIB, etc.); 3 (Tier III); 4 (Tier IV); 44 (Areas annotated as Tier IVA for municipal greenbelts or any other annotated version of Tier IV); 99 – Areas included in the jurisdiction’s growth tier GIS data that are not assigned a tier, such as rights-of-way or water.Adopt_Date – Date growth tier map was adopted or amended. When a local jurisdiction updates its growth tier map, Planning generally requests a comprehensive GIS update to replace all existing data for the jurisdiction.Acres – GIS acres calculated by Planning in NAD83 Meters (EPSG 26985)GIS_SRC (GIS Source) – The original source of the GIS spatial and attribute information Planning obtained, which concatenates the JURSCODE field (or MUNI field for municipal tier maps), followed by a space, followed by the name of the shapefile or feature class received from the jurisdiction. Field contains “MDP” if tiers were digitized by Planning, and is blank (‘ ‘) for historical data.SRC_DATE (GIS Source Date) – The date (YYYYMMDD) the GIS data were obtained by Planning from the local jurisdiction. If the month or day is unknown, the date is YYYY0000. If Planning digitized the growth tier map in coordination with a local jurisdiction, this should be the date Planning’s edits are verified by the jurisdiction. This field will be blank (‘ ’) if Planning’s edits have not been verified or if the dataset is historical and the source is unknown.NOTE – Text field containing additional notes about the dataLast Updated: 7/26/2023This is a Maryland Department of Planning hosted service.

The MTDB represents a seamless national file with no overlaps or gaps between parts, however, each TIGER/Line shapefile is designed to stand alone as an independent data set, or they can be combined to cover the entire nation. The All Roads Shapefile includes all features within the MTDB Super Class "Road/Path Features" distinguished where the MAF/TIGER Feature Classification Code (MTFCC) for the feature in MTDB that begins with "S". This includes all primary, secondary, local neighborhood, and rural roads, city streets, vehicular trails (4wd), ramps, service drives, alleys, parking lot roads, private roads for service vehicles (logging, oil fields, ranches, etc.), bike paths or trails, bridle/horse paths, walkways/pedestrian trails, and stairways.
Baltimore County's Urban Rural Demarcation Line (URDL) has divided the county into "urban" and "rural" areas since established by the Planning Board in 1967. Developed primarily as a growth management tool, it has influenced zoning, land-use, and infrustructure decisions, and was the baseline for the Baltimore County part of Maryland's Priority Funding Area. However, this boundary (digitized at a scale of 1:24,000 where 1" represents 2,000') was became obsolete as the county's GIS data increased in resolution (to 1:2,400 where 1" represents 200'). Until recently, determining a property's status as either urban or rural was of a highly interpretative nature. A new URDL was developed to more accurately match the 1:2,400 data (parcel, street centerline, zoning, etc). This version was reviewed and modified in a series of meetings with several interested county agencies. The new URDL removes much of the old one's ambiguity while keeping its original intent. The new URDL was reviewed, modified, and subsequently approved by the Planning Board on June 19, 2003. Minor revisions were effected 9/2/04, 10/21/04, 9/4/07, 5/21/09, 10/1/09 and 11/15/12. The URDL_poly feature class is one part of the URDL feature dataset.

The Charted Territory Map (World Edition) web map provides a customized world basemap uniquely symbolized. It takes its inspiration from a printed atlas plate and pull-down scholastic classroom maps. The map emphasizes the geographic and political features in the design. The use of country level polygons are preassigned with eight different colors. It also includes the global graticule features as well as landform labels of physical features and hillshade. This basemap, included in the ArcGIS Living Atlas of the World, uses the Charted Territory vector tile layer and World Hillshade. The vector tile layer in this web map is built using the same data sources used for other Esri Vector Basemaps. For details on data sources contributed by the GIS community, view the map of Community Maps Basemap Contributors. Esri Vector Basemaps are updated monthly.Use this MapThis map is designed to be used as a basemap for overlaying other layers of information or as a stand-alone reference map. You can add layers to this web map and save as your own map. If you like, you can add this web map to a custom basemap gallery for others in your organization to use in creating web maps. If you would like to add this map as a layer in other maps you are creating, you may use the layers referenced in this map.
The TIGER/Line shapefiles and related database files (.dbf) are an extract of selected geographic and cartographic information from the U.S. Census Bureau's Master Address File / Topologically Integrated Geographic Encoding and Referencing (MAF/TIGER) Database (MTDB). The MTDB represents a seamless national file with no overlaps or gaps between parts, however, each TIGER/Line shapefile is designed to stand alone as an independent data set, or they can be combined to cover the entire nation. The Feature Names Relationship File (FEATNAMES.dbf) contains a record for each feature name and any attributes associated with it. Each feature name can be linked to the corresponding edges that make up that feature in the All Lines Shapefile (EDGES.shp), where applicable to the corresponding address range or ranges in the Address Ranges Relationship File (ADDR.dbf), or to both files. Although this file includes feature names for all linear features, not just road features, the primary purpose of this relationship file is to identify all street names associated with each address range. An edge can have several feature names; an address range located on an edge can be associated with one or any combination of the available feature names (an address range can be linked to multiple feature names). The address range is identified by the address range identifier (ARID) attribute, which can be used to link to the Address Ranges Relationship File (ADDR.dbf). The linear feature is identified by the linear feature identifier (LINEARID) attribute, which can be used to relate the address range back to the name attributes of the feature in the Feature Names Relationship File or to the feature record in the Primary Roads, Primary and Secondary Roads, or All Roads Shapefiles. The edge to which a feature name applies can be determined by linking the feature name record to the All Lines Shapefile (EDGES.shp) using the permanent edge identifier (TLID) attribute. The address range identifier(s) (ARID) for a specific linear feature can be found by using the linear feature identifier (LINEARID) from the Feature Names Relationship File (FEATNAMES.dbf) through the Address Range / Feature Name Relationship File (ADDRFN.dbf).

Urban area boundaries for 1966, part of the Baltimore-Washington Spatial Dynamics and Human Impacts dataset. The Baltimore-Washington Spatial Dynamics and Human Impacts dataset is an integrated and flexible temporal urban land characteristics database for the Baltimore-Washington metropolitan area. The compilation of this data is a collaborative effort led by the U.S. Geological Survey and the University of Maryland Baltimore County. The database provides visual and historical perspective of the urban growth experienced in the area between 1792 and 1992. Data on built-up areas exists as separate geographic layers for the dates: 1792, 1801, 1822, 1850, 1878, 1900, 1925, 1938, 1953, 1966, 1972, 1982, and 1992. Temporal urban mapping reconstructs past landscapes by incorporating historic maps, census statistics, and commerce records to generate a progressive geo-referenced picture of the past changes in a region. Contemporary mapping focuses on the use of remotely sensed data, existing digital land use data, digital census information, and a variety of earth science infrastructure data, such as Digital Line Graphs, Digital Elevation Models, and key ancillary demographic information. Different procedures were used for different time periods, more fully described for each file in the Process Step Section 2.5.2. The resulting database of temporal urban land use/land cover and demographic changes provides an ideal source of test data and information for both urban geographers and global change research scientists. While this dataset was developed by the University of Maryland Baltimore County final quality control and metadata generation was performed by the University of Vermont's Spatial Analysis Lab. Two significant problems were noted regarding this dataset. The first anomoly is that the 1801, 1822, and 1878 layers have a much smaller extent, and contain data only for Baltimore City. The second discrepancy is that there are also some very obvious positional errors causing misalignments between layers of different dates (i.e. urban areas become non-urban in a very short time period, an unlikely occurance). This is part of a collection of 221 Baltimore Ecosystem Study metadata records that point to a geodatabase. The geodatabase is available online and is considerably large. Upon request, and under certain arrangements, it can be shipped on media, such as a usb hard drive. The geodatabase is roughly 51.4 Gb in size, consisting of 4,914 files in 160 folders. Although this metadata record and the others like it are not rich with attributes, it is nonetheless made available because the data that it represents could be indeed useful.
