The creation of the contour data was executed to capture the existing ground conditions at a specific point in time for the purpose of GIS mapping and analysis. Contour information is used for plannimetric mapping and for creating TINs and RASTERs, which support 3D mapping and ground/slope visualization. TINs and RASTERs of elevation data support spatial analyses related to slopes, viewsheds, water runoff, and other map algebra-based applications.Although the contract with VGIN (VA Geographic Information Network) was initiated in 2006, due to the late signing of the contact between the State and their contractor, there was not a long-enough "leaf-off" period to complete state-wide orthophotograhy mapping; the City of Richmond was one of many localities postponed until the Winter of 2007.

This map provides information on speed limits that are posted on state-maintained roadways in Virginia. Cities and towns set their own speed limits and these are not available to show on the map. Zoom in on the map to display the speed limits. Speed limits exist for all roads however; where this information is not available for mapping, they are not displayed. Most roads where speed limits are not shown are either rural, secondary roads (routes numbered 600 or greater) where a statutory 55 mph speed limit typically applies, or subdivision streets where a statutory 25 mph speed limit usually applies. These statutory speed limits are often are not posted on these roads. Click on any roadway to display the speed limit information.

THIS MAP SHOWS THE FOLLOWING:Designated Highways on the state-maintained system. The National Network and Virginia Qualifying Highways include all interstates and certain other highways respectively, with one road-mile of access permissible off these routes to access terminals, fuel, food, rest, and repairs (except in cities and towns, or in Henrico and Arlington Counties where permission is required from those localities). The Virginia Access portion includes certain other primary and secondary routes where no access is allowed off the system. LIMITATIONS & EXCLUSIONS REGARDING TRUCK ROUTES & RESTRICTIONS PROVIDED ON THIS MAP1. The information presented applies only to the highway systems maintained by the Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT). Additional STAA access or restrictions may apply in incorporated cities and towns, and on secondary roads (numbered 600 or higher) in Henrico and Arlington Counties.2. Access to, or restrictions on, the indicated routes for the specified vehicles is applicable unless other restrictions or limitations apply due to weight, height, or width; incidents or construction; or as otherwise indicated by signs on the highway.3. To the best of our knowledge the information provided is updated on a weekly basis or as received from Districts. It is the responsibility of the highway user to ensure their information is current and correct.A permit for additional access off the state maintained system may be requested by contacting the Department of Motor Vehicles at (804) 497-7135. For additional access in cities and towns and in Henrico and Arlington Counties contact officials in those localities.

This preliminary experimental lithogeochemical map shows the distribution of rock types in the Virginia and Maryland parts of the Chesapeake Bay watershed. The map was produced digitally by classifying geologic-map units according to composition, mineralogy, and texture; rather than by age and stratigraphic relationships as shown on traditional geologic maps. This map differs from most lithologic maps in that the lithogeochemical unit classification distinguishes those rock units having key water-reactive minerals that may induce acid neutralization, or reduction, of hosted water at the weathering interface. The validity of these rock units, however, is independent of water chemistry, because the rock units are derived from geologic maps and rock descriptions. Areas of high soil carbon content, and sulfide metal deposits are also shown. Water-reactive minerals and their weathering reactions yield five lithogeochemical unit classes: 1) carbonate rock and calcareous rocks and sediments, the most acid-neutralizing; 2)carbonaceous-sulfidic rocks and sediments, oxygen-depleting and reducing; 3) quartzofeldspathic rocks and siliciclastic sediments, relatively weakly reactive with water; 4) mafic silicate rocks/sediments, oxygen consuming and high solute-load delivering; and, 5) the rarer calcareous-sulfidic (carbonaceous) rocks, neutralizing and reducing. Earlier studies in some parts of the map area have related solute loads in ground and stream waters to some aspects of bedrock lithology. More recent preliminary tests of relationships between four of the classes of mapped lithogeochemical units and ground water chemistry, in the Mid-Atlantic area using this map, have focused on and verified the nitrate-reducing and acid-neutralizing properties of some bedrock and unconsolidated aquifer rock types. Sulfide mineral deposits and their mine-tailings effects on waters are beginning to be studied by others. Additional testing of relationships among the lithogeochemical units and aspects of ground and surface water chemistry could help to refine the lithogeochemical classification, and this map. The testing could also improve the usefulness of the map for assessing aquifer reactivity and the transport properties of reactive contaminants such as acid rain, and nitrate from agricultural sources, in the Chesapeake Bay watershed.

This tile layer is utilized by Richmond National Battlefield Park (RICH) and is embedded as a layer within the "RICH Chimborazo Hill Historic Maps Web Map". This tile layer features a high-resolution georeferenced image of a 1906 map of Chimborazo Hill in Richmond, Virginia. A portion of Chimborazo Hill is preserved and managed by RICH at the Chimborazo Hospital unit. This map was georeferenced in ArcGIS Pro and exported as a web layer to ArcGIS Online (AGOL). The data herein is maintained in the "RICH Chimborazo Hill" Portal User Group; this data is current as of March 2025.Source: https://rosetta.virginiamemory.com/delivery/DeliveryManagerServlet?dps_pid=IE3527344Creator :Saunders, Clyde W.

To define/describe the extent and boundaries of the Old and Historic Districts for use in GIS. This GIS layer is used to relate properties (hence addresses) to the correlating City Historic District/Site for use in the City's data warehousing and address systems. The City Zoning division regularly researches to see if addresses/properties are within these districts, as they are subject to zoning ordinances.
