Parcels in Bucks County, Pennsylvania

Municipal boundaries for Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Maryland, Delaware, and the District of Columbia with ortho-rectified municipal boundaries for the DVRPC Region. Municipal Boundaries have been edited by DVRPC to create a more accurate, seemless regional dataset for the DVRPC region and its surrounding area. This dataset was compiled from multiple sources. Original data sources (in order of drawing rank): DVRPC - for Mercer, Burlington, Camden, Gloucester counties in NJ (an adaptation of NJOIT's Mun Bounds) and Bucks, Montgomery, Philadelphia, Chester, and Delaware counties in PA. In most cases, boundaries have been adjusted to align with parcel data. NJOIT - remaining NJ counties (2008) PennDOT - remaining PA counties (2009) DE State Office of Mgmt & Budget - Delaware municipalities (2002) MD State Hwy Administration - Maryland municipalities (2003) Washington DC - ESRI NOTE: NJ's coast has been clipped or unioned to ESRI's data CD detailed state boundaryDue to a consolidation, Princeton Twp and Princeton Boro in Mercer County, NJ in 2013, the new municipality (named "Princeton"), uses Princeton Boro's unique ID 3402160900. Princeton Township's unique ID (3402160915)no longer exists.Due to the name change from Washington Twp to Robbinsville Twp in Mercer County NJ in 2008, the unique ID (GEOID) for this municipality has changed from 3402177210 to 3402163850 . However, if you download 2000 census data from the Bureau's website, the unique ID (GEOID) for Robbinsville Township will still be 3402177210 in the census data…you will have to manually change its GEOID to 3402163850 in order to get the 2000 data to join to the MCD file correctly.Due to name change from Birmingham Twp to Chadds Ford Twp in Delaware County, PA in 1997, the unique ID (GEOID) for this municipality has changed from 4204506552 to 4204512442.

Edited in April 2021 to match PCPC's planning district boundaries and numbers dated 2013

This is layer show the geographic boundary for Montgomery County. The original source data has been edited to best match orthophotography, natural features and other known boundary markers. Boundary is for reference purposes only and not a legal surveyed boundary.

An elevation or topographic contour is a line that connects a series of points of equal elevation and is used to illustrate topography, or relief, on a map. It shows the height of ground above Mean Sea Level (M.S.L.). Numerous contour lines that are close together indicate hilly or mountainous terrain; when far apart, they represent a gentler slope. This layer consists of contours at a five foot interval for Montgomery County. Data was derived from DVRPC and was generated from an aerial topographic survey in 2005.The Delaware Valley Regional Planning Commission's (DVRPC) 9-county region is made up of the following: Bucks, Chester, Delaware, Montgomery, and Philadelphia counties in Pennsylvania; and Burlington, Camden, Gloucester, and Mercer counties in New Jersey.The regional dataset can be be accessed via rest service or downloaded from PASDA

This index represents the coverage of the scans of DVRPC's non-orthorectified, mylar, aerial photo enlargements.. These polygons were developed to define the overall extent of the imagery, and to assist users in locating the particular images of interest to them.This layer includes a "STATUS" attribute field that indicates what scans are missing, however this is not a complete inventory of missing scans.Prior to the year 2000, DVRPC’s aerial imagery consisted of mylar aerial photo enlargements or “atlas sheets”. These atlas sheets were produced from 9x9" aerial photos. The imagery dates from the years 1959, 1965, 1970, 1975, 1980, 1985, 1990, & 1995. The 1959s and 1965s primarily cover the urbanized portion of the DVRPC region (the DVRPC region is made up of nine counties: Bucks, Chester, Delaware, Montgomery, and Philadelphia in Pennsylvania; Burlington, Camden, Gloucester, and Mercer in New Jersey). Subsequent years provide full coverage of the region, minus the occasional missing scan.In order to increase the efficiency of using the historical aerial imagery, the sheets were scanned into TIFF (Tagged Image File Format) files. Each TIFF file ranges between 35-40MB in size. Unlike DVRPC’s more recent aerial imagery (2000 and later), the historical aerials are not “orthorectified” or “orthocorrected”. In other words, they are simply aerial images with no spatial reference or uniform scale. Through the process of georeferencing, the scanned images can be assigned a spatial reference which will enable them to be used more readily in a GIS environment. That said, georeferencing is not orthorectifying or orthocorrecting. What it does allow is for the scan to be displayed relative to other spatially referenced GIS layers. A georeferenced scan does not have the properties of an actual orthoimage. Whereas an orthoimage can be used for making accurate measurements, a georeferenced image cannot, as it does not have the spatial accuracy and uniform scale of an orthoimage.

Feature layer of BicyclePA Routes for use with PennDOT's PennShare and OpenData applicationsBicyclePA routes were designed by experienced bicyclists to provide those who wish to traverse the state by bicycle with a guide to some of the Commonwealth’s highways and rail-trails. Some of these routes contain bike lanes or other facilities designed specifically for bicyclists traveling within the four corners of the Commonwealth. Every bicyclist is responsible for his or her personal safety and welfare and for remaining alert and mindful of conditions on the roads or trails. There are 10 designated BicyclePA routes- A, E, G, J, JS, L, S, V, Y, and Z. A: BicyclePA Route A runs north/south from Presque Isle State Park on Lake Erie to the West Virginia border just north of Morgantown in Greene County. E: BicyclePA Route E runs north/south from the New Jersey border along the Delaware River in Morrisville, PA to the Delaware border in Marcus Hook, PA. G: BicyclePA Route G runs north/south from the New York border in Lawrenceville, Tioga County to the Maryland border in Bedford County. J: BicyclePA Route J runs north/south from the New York border in Sayre, Bradford County to the Maryland border in two places: New Freedom, York County and south of Gettysburg in Adams County. JS: BicyclePA Route JS runs east/west between Seven Valleys in York County and Gettysburg in Adams County. L: BicyclePA Route L runs north/south from the New York border south of Binghamton in Susquehanna County to the Delaware border north of Wilmington in Chester County. S: BicyclePA Route S runs east/west from the New Jersey border at the Washington Crossing Military Park on the Delaware River in Bucks County to the West Virginia border east of Wheeling in Washington County. V: BicyclePA Route V runs east/west from the New Jersey border in Portland (Northampton County) to the Ohio border in Lawrence County, roughly parallel with Interstate 80. Y: BicyclePA Route Y runs east/west from the New York border in Pike County to the Ohio border in Crawford County. Z: BicyclePA Route Z runs east/west along the shore of Lake Erie from the New York border to the Ohio border in Erie County.

Mosaic - An orthoimage is remotely sensed image data in which displacement of features in the image caused by terrain relief and sensor orientation have been mathematically removed. Orthoimagery combines the image characteristics of a photograph with the geometric qualities of a map. This project consists of the creation of 3-band, 24 bit color digital orthophoto tiles for the 5-county, Pennsylvania portion DVRPC?s region utilizing a Leica ADS40 digital imaging system. The tiles were delivered in both GeoTIFF and MrSID MG3 formats. A GeoTIFF is a TIFF file which has geographic (or cartographic) data embedded as tags within the TIFF file. The geographic data can then be used to position the image in the correct location and geometry within a geographic information system (GIS) display. MrSID (Multi-resolution Seamless Image Database) is a proprietary, wavelet-based, image compression file format (*.sid) developed and patented by LizardTech, Inc. A 20:1 compression ratio was used for the MrSIDs. The complete data set contains 1,540 full ortho tiles in Pennsylvania State Plane South coordinate system, NAD83. The individual tiles measure 5,055' x 8,745' at a 1.0' pixel size. There is no image overlap between adjacent tiles. Counties include: Bucks, Chester, Delaware, Montgomery, and Philadelphia
