Five-foot contour interval topographic coverage of almost half the County. Coverage is generally along the Roanoke County line, most of the Henry County line, and all of the Bedford County line. It also includes the SW corner of the County, plus the mid-section from Rocky Mount, east to Smith Mountain Lake, with much of the surrounding area in between.

This is a general representation of the known County boundary descriptions dating back to the original 1786 county description as well we subsequent modifications around the county. This boundary is not necessarily coincident with any of our neighbors, the US Census Bureau, the USGS, or any other agency. It is, however, the boundary that we are currently using until we nominate and adopt an official digital County Boundary.

The Virginia Geographic Information Network (VGIN) is coordinating the development of a consistent, seamless, statewide digital road centerline file with address, road name, and route number attribution, as part of the Virginia Base Mapping Program (VBMP). The Road Centerline Project (RCL) leverages the investment in the VBMP digital orthophotography and is focused on creating a single statewide, consistent digital road file. The RCL data layer will be a dynamic dataset supported and maintained by the local and state governments. VBMP RCL is extracted and provided in three geographic datasets; State, Regional, & Local. This data set only contains those roads that are deemed critical for Franklin County E911.
A collection of topographic and elevation layers.

This layer contains the boundaries of the VDOT Area Headquarters (AHQ) zones of responsibility. These areas are important as they designate which AHQ is responsible for road maintenance in that area. Additionally, in certain areas of Virginia (the Virginia independent cities, and Arlington and Henrico Counties), maintenance responsibility of local roads is devolved to the local government. These areas have been been removed.July 2016 changes - changed Residency and Residency Codes for the AHQ's in the new Residencies of Louisa and AbingdonChanges made in July 2015 to change several Area HQ boundaries for Leesburg Residency / Loudoun County. These changes result in some non-contiguous island and donut polygons. These are necessary to transfer certain unpaved routes from one Area to another. Changes made in Franklin Co.
This layer includes only parcels where final elevation certificates are available, with elevations reported in the vertical datum provided on the elevation certificate (NAVD 1988 or NGVD 1929).Elevation certificates were collected from the following 10 localities: (1)Chesapeake, (2)Franklin, (3)Hampton, (4)James City County, (5)Newport News, (6)Norfolk, (7)Portsmouth, (8)Southampton County, (9)Virginia Beach, and (10)York County. All elevation certificate information was entered by HRPDC staff. Localities included in the current inventory were able to provide digital elevation certificate copies. This inventory is not complete for the region, and elevation certificates will continue to be added to the database when available. Building attributes and parcels are courtesy of the Hampton Roads Regional Parcels layer and locality GIS departments. Created 2/8/2019

This layer includes only parcels where final elevation certificates are available, with all elevations reported in NAVD 1988. Where necessary, conversions from NGVD 1929 to NAVD 1988 were completed using the VERTCON v2.1 program (NOAA NGS, 2018). Elevation certificates were collected from the following 10 localities: (1)Chesapeake, (2)Franklin, (3)Hampton, (4)James City County, (5)Newport News, (6)Norfolk, (7)Portsmouth, (8)Southampton County, (9)Virginia Beach, and (10)York County.

The process of drawing in building footprints for all buildings having or needing an E911 address began in 2004/2005 using the 2002 Virginia Ortho Photos from VGIN. Once the 2006 Virginia Ortho Photos were processed and received from VGIN the areas that had not yet been completed using the 2002 photos were completed using the 2006 Virginia Ortho Photos. While these were in progress and since they were completed all new buildings have been drawn in using GPS points taken on the front left and right corners of the new building footers when they are inspected by the building inspections department, and assigned an address using the a GPS point taken at the access point. The Franklin County Building Inspection Department is using Trimble GeoXT units with Sub meter Accuracy and the points were differentially corrected using Trimble Pathfinder Office software. If footers points were missed or unusable the new building foot print was drawn in from the driveway of the new structure using a field laptop and car mounted GPS Unit.
Once all the building footprints had been completed the process of matching the E911 addresses to the building polygons started and is still in the process.
This is the map showing the location of the approved special use cases and variances to established zoning regulations. Conditions may be associated with both, and should be marked in the table if that is the case.
This is the map showing the location of the different zoning classifications and contains data as to when areas were rezoned. The most recent case number and date approved by the Board of Supervisors are included for those area that have be rezoned and the three previous most recent case numbers
