This service provides visual representation of North Carolina Municipal Boundaries defined through the 2021-2022 Powell Bill.This service was created to assist governmental agencies and others in making resource management decisions through use of a Geographic Information System (GIS). Municipal boundaries are recognized as a base cartographic layer for location analysis. This data is current for the fiscal year 2021 - 2022. Municipal boundaries updated this year were based on towns that reported annexation changes to the NC Office of Secretary of State. This may not be representative of all towns with boundary changes this year.The Municipal Boundaries service is based on the Powell Bill Program maps for the 2021-2022 fiscal year. Municipalities in North Carolina participating in the Powell Bill Program are required to submit to NCDOT on a regular basis. These datasets include incorporated municipalities in North Carolina that participate in the Powell Bill Program. Boundaries of municipalities which do not participate in the Powell Bill Program are also included in this data. Sources for the boundaries vary in scale and format as provided by the individual Municipalities.For more detailed information about the Powell Bill Program: https://connect.ncdot.gov/municipalities/State-Street-Aid/pages/default.aspxThe Spatial Data Operations Group at the North Carolina Department of Information Technology-Transportation, GIS Unit serves as the data steward of this service, on behalf of the North Carolina Department of Transportation, Powell Bill (State Street-Aid) Program Unit.

A Stormwater account exists to facilitate public payments into a fund to prevent stormwater damage that naturally arises from water runoff that accumulates as a result of our built environment. This damage comes in the form of flooding of our roads and private property and water quality damage to our river/stream ecosystem. The amount of pavement and other hard surfaces, also known as "impervious surfaces," on each property contributes to potential stormwater damage risks. Therefore, each property owner pays a small fee according to the amount of impervious surface on their property or property for which it shares some obligation.

Urban heat islands are small areas where temperatures are unnaturally high - usually due to dense buildings, expansive hard surfaces, or a lack of tree cover or greenspace. People living in these communities are exposed to more dangerous conditions, especially as daytime high and nighttime low temperatures increase over time. NOAA Climate Program Office and CAPA Strategies have partnered with cities around the United States to map urban heat islands. Using Sentinel-2 satellite thermal data along with on-the-ground sensors, air temperature and heat indexes are calculated for morning, afternoon, and evening time periods. The NOAA Visualization Lab, part of the NOAA Satellite and Information Service, has made the original heat mapping data available as dynamic image services.Dataset SummaryPhenomenon Mapped: heat indexUnits: degrees Fahrenheit Cell Size: 30 metersPixel Type: 32 bit floating pointData Coordinate Systems: WGS84 Mosaic Projection: WGS84 Extent: cities within the United StatesSource: NOAA and CAPA StrategiesPublication Date: September 20, 2021What can you do with this layer?This imagery layer supports communities' UHI spatial analysis and mapping capabilities.
