From the site: "This data set is a digital soil survey and generally is the most detailed level of soil geographic data developed by the National Cooperative Soil Survey. The information was prepared by digitizing maps, by compiling information onto a planimetric correct base and digitizing, or by revising digitized maps using remotely sensed and other information. This data set consists of georeferenced digital map data and computerized attribute data. The map data are in a soil survey area extent format and include a detailed, field verified inventory of soils and miscellaneous areas that normally occur in a repeatable pattern on the landscape and that can be cartographically shown at the scale mapped. A special soil features layer (point and line features) is optional. This layer displays the location of features too small to delineate at the mapping scale, but they are large enough and contrasting enough to significantly influence use and management. The soil map units are linked to attributes in the National Soil Information System relational database, which gives the proportionate extent of the component soils and their properties."

About the G.M. Hopkins Maps

History and Background of the Maps

Maps produced by the G.M. Hopkins Company have made a lasting impression on the boundaries of many American cities. Between 1870 and 1940, the company produced over 175 atlases and real estate plat maps that primarily covered the Eastern sea board, including cities, counties, and townships in 18 different states and the District of Columbia. In the early years, the company produced county atlases, but gradually focused on city plans and atlases. They were among the first publishers to create a cadastral atlas, a cross between a fire insurance plat and a county atlas prevalent in the 1860s-1870s. These real estate or land ownership maps (also known as plat maps) not only depict property owners, but show lot and block numbers, dimensions, street widths, and other buildings and landmarks, including churches, cemeteries, mills, schools, roads, railroads, lakes, ponds, rivers, and streams.

Originally named the G.M. Hopkins and Company, the map-making business was jointly founded in 1865 in Philadelphia, Pa., by the Hopkins brothers, G.M. and Henry. The true identity of G.M. Hopkins remains somewhat of a mystery even today. “G.M.” either stands for Griffith Morgan or George Morgan. There are three different possibilities for the confusion over his identity. “Either the compilers of the earlier [city] directories were negligent; G.M. Hopkins changed his first name; or there were two G.M. Hopkins (father and son) working for the same firm” (Moak, Jefferson M. Philadelphia Mapmakers. Philadelphia: Shackamaxon Society, 1976, p. 258).

The PA Department of Conservation and Natural Resources (DCNR) and PA Game Commission (PGC) have teamed up to create an interactive map specifically for hunters. Collectively, State Forest Land and Gamelands comprise over 3.7 million acres of public forest open to hunting in Pennsylvania. Hunters can use this map to:View public forests open to hunting.Search hunting seasons and bag limits across different parts of the state.Display hunting hours (starting/ending times) across different parts of the state.Add personal GPS data to the map (waypoints and tracklogs).View different types of wildlife habitat across public forest lands, including mature oak forests, meadows, food plots, openings, winter thermal (coniferous) cover, and young aspen forest.See where recent timber harvests have occurred on public forest lands.Get deer management assistance program (DMAP) information for state forest lands.Add map layers associated with chronic wasting disease (CWD).Identify where bear check stations are located and get driving directions.Display the elk hunting zones and get information about them.Get the location of gated roads opened for hunters on public forest lands and when those gates will be opened.Analyze graphs and trends in antlerless/antlered deer harvests and antlerless license allocations from 2004 to the present.

The Florida Department of Revenue’s Property Tax Oversight(PTO) program collects parcel level Geographic Information System (GIS) data files every April from all of Florida’s 67 county property appraisers’ offices. This GIS data was exported from these file submissions in August 2024. The GIS parcel polygon features have been joined with the real property roll (Name – Address – Legal, or NAL) file. No line work was adjusted between county boundaries, prior to the creation of the centroids.. The polygon data set represents the information property appraisers gathered from the legal description on deeds, lot layout of recorded plats, declaration of condominium documents, recorded and unrecorded surveys.The centroids were derived from the parcel polygons. Using ArcPRO, the repair geometry tool was used, followed by the feature to point tool. All centroids were created within the polygon's boundary even if the center of the irregular polygon was outside its boundary. Individual parcel data is updated continually by each county property appraiser as needed. The GIS linework and related attributions for the statewide parcel map are updated annually by the Department every August.

The goal of this project was to develop a standard Northeastern Aquatic Habitat Classification (NEAHCS) and GIS map for 13 northeastern states (ME, NH, VT, MA, RI, CT, NY, PA, NJ, DE, MD, VA, WV, and DC.) that are part of the Northeast Association of Fish and Wildlife Agencies (NEAFWA). This classification and GIS dataset was designed to consistently represent the expected natural aquatic habitat types across this region in a manner deemed appropriate and useful for conservation planning by the participating states. This product is not intended to override state classifications, but is meant to complement state classifications and provide a means for looking at aquatic biodiversity patterns across the region.Background: With the creation and implementation of State Wildlife Action Plans (SWAP) by state fisheries and wildlife agencies, the need for consistent, current digital habitat maps has grown dramatically. The implementation of the SWAPs within each state and across the Northeast region will be greatly enhanced through the development of current, consistent terrestrial and aquatic habitat geographic information systems (GIS) datasets. These habitat datasets are expected to form the foundation of state and regional conservation in the Northeastern United States. Key anticipated uses include the following: Provide common definitions and mapping of aquatic habitat types across state lines. This will allow each state to identify aquatic habitats consistently across jurisdictional borders, such as large habitat patches and watersheds that cover multiple jurisdictions. This will also improve the success of state-level actions by assisting jurisdictions that have not yet developed aquatic habitat classification and mapping tools. Facilitate a new understanding of aquatic biota and populations on a regional scale by linking biological datasets to the regional aquatic habitat types for reporting and analysis. Create a new opportunity to assess the condition and prioritize habitats at a scale broader than the individual state by linking and reporting information on dams, land use, conservation lands, impaired waters, and other condition metrics by the regional aquatic habitat types Developing an Aquatic Ecosystem Classification: Unlike terrestrial communities, no national standard aquatic community classification for the U.S. currently exists. The comprehensive biological sample data necessary to develop a classification and map of aquatic ecosystems from biological data alone is also lacking across large regions, including the northeast states. The Northeast Aquatic Habitat Classification System thus used the aquatic biophysical classification approach developed by the Nature Conservancy and recommended by the National Fish Habitat Science Panel (Olivero and Anderson 2003, Higgins et al. 2005, Beard et al. 2006). This classification approach can be implemented at regional scales and emphasizes the environmental gradients of climate, elevation, landform, and geology which are known to shape aquatic ecosystems at several spatial scales and influence the physical aquatic habitat diversity (Higgins et al. 2005). The individual variables chosen to define specific aquatic habitat types can vary between regions, and regions are encouraged to refine the classification attributes to better reflect more meaningful ecological breaks and variables within their region (Higgins et al. 2005, Beard and Whelan, 2006). The Northeastern Aquatic Habitat Classification System (NAHCS) workgroup decided to use 4 primary variables to define aquatic habitat types in northeast streams and rivers. These variables include stream size, gradient, geologic buffering capacity, and natural stream temperature regime. Please see the full report for more information on why these variables were chosen and how the classification was applied.
