This project consists of two datasets. The first is a GIS shapefile of Flint Community Schools that are open as of Fall 2016. The second is a GIS shapefile of City of Flint service line connections.
The Unpublished Digital Geologic-GIS Map of the Cave Creek School Quadrangle, Texas is composed of GIS data layers and GIS tables in a 10.1 file geodatabase (ccsc_geology.gdb), a 10.1 ArcMap (.mxd) map document (ccsc_geology.mxd), individual 10.1 layer (.lyr) files for each GIS data layer, an ancillary map information document (lyjo_geology.pdf) which contains source map unit descriptions, as well as other source map text, figures and tables, metadata in FGDC text (.txt) and FAQ (.pdf) formats, and a GIS readme file (lyjo_geology_gis_readme.pdf). Please read the lyjo_geology_gis_readme.pdf for information pertaining to the proper extraction of the file geodatabase and other map files. To request GIS data in ESRI 10.1 shapefile format contact Stephanie O'Meara (stephanie.omeara@colostate.edu; see contact information below). Presently, a GRI Google Earth KMZ/KML product doesn't exist for this map. The data were completed as a component of the Geologic Resources Inventory (GRI) program, a National Park Service (NPS) Inventory and Monitoring (I&M) Division funded program that is administered by the NPS Geologic Resources Division (GRD). Source geologic maps and data used to complete this GRI digital dataset were provided by the following: Texas Bureau of Economic Geology, University of Texas at Austin. Detailed information concerning the sources used and their contribution the GRI product are listed in the Source Citation section(s) of this metadata record (ccsc_geology_metadata.txt or ccsc_geology_metadata_faq.pdf). Users of this data are cautioned about the locational accuracy of features within this dataset. Based on the source map scale of 1:24,000 and United States National Map Accuracy Standards features are within (horizontally) 12.2 meters or 40 feet of their actual location as presented by this dataset. Users of this data should thus not assume the location of features is exactly where they are portrayed in ArcGIS or other software used to display this dataset. All GIS and ancillary tables were produced as per the NPS GRI Geology-GIS Geodatabase Data Model v. 2.3. (available at: http://science.nature.nps.gov/im/inventory/geology/GeologyGISDataModel.cfm). The GIS data projection is NAD83, UTM Zone 14N. The data is within the area of interest of Lyndon B. Johnson National Historical Park.
The First International Workshop on Historical GIS was held on Aug 23rd - 24th, 2001 at Fudan University, Shanghai, China. The Workshop was hosted by the Center for Historical Geographical Studies at Fudan, and organized by: Jianxiong GE (Fudan University), Peter Bol (Harvard University), Ruth Mostern (U.C. Berkeley) , and Lex Berman (Harvard University). RELATED WEBSITE: https://sites.fas.harvard.edu/~chgis/pages/agendas/shanghai_2001.html

Prof. Robert Hartwell (1932 - 1996) created his China Historical GIS under the auspices of his company Chinese Historical Studies. His estate left the data to Harvard University. These materials include functional GIS datasets for the Chinese Dynasties, from Tang to Ming, which were based on the concept of "co-location," or the use of GIS representations of modern county-level administrative units as building blocks to depict the approximate shapes of historical areas. Making use of county boundary data for 1992, (obtained from Crissman's ACASIAN data), Hartwell represented historical units that occupied roughly the same areas by merging or splitting the 1992 counties. Where the contemporary boundaries could not be "co-located" in this fashion, Hartwell drew in approximate line boundaries to divide the contemporary units to fit the historical situations and therefore provide an approximation of the historical unit's area. Although the resulting boundaries are, in many cases, problematic representations, the GIS remains an interesting hueristic GIS tool for sorting, querying, and creating digital maps for selected areas within the major dynasties up to the Ming. Harvard University released the original Hartwell datasets on April 2nd, 2001, in conjunction with the CHGIS project, as a useful means of generating approximate spatial entities correlating to historical administrative units. For Version 5, the Hartwell Datasets were renamed according to a filenaming convention (described above) and projected to match the CHGIS V5 standard (2014).
Group quarters are owned or managed by an entity or organization providing housing and/or services for the residents. People living in group quarters are usually not related to each other including such places as college residence halls, nursing homes and correctional facilities.The data in this map is compiled from a variety of publicly available sources to support US Census Bureau related activities in Tennessee including the 2020 Census and preparation of annual estimates of population and housing units.This dataset is under development and currently includes adult and juvenile corrections facilities in the state. Work is ongoing to add additional facility types and is scheduled to be complete by May 2019.

GIS shape files, building information, and project plans and other data collected and compiled for campus mapping of Bethune-Cookman University.
The data were collected and created in 2014.
This dataset attempts to represent the point locations of every educational program in the state of Minnesota that is currently operational and reporting to the Minnesota Department of Education. It can be used to identify schools, various individual school programs, school districts (by office location), colleges, and libraries, among other programs. Please note that not all school programs are statutorily required to report, and many types of programs can be reported at any time of the year, so this dataset is by nature an incomplete snapshot in time.
Maintenance of these locations are a result of an ongoing project to identify current school program locations where Food and Nutrition Services Office (FNS) programs are utilized. The FNS Office is in the Minnesota Department of Education (MDE). GIS staff at MDE maintain the dataset using school program and physical addresses provided by local education authorities (LEAs) for an MDE database called "MDE ORG". MDE GIS staff track weekly changes to program locations, along with comprehensive reviews each summer. All records have been reviewed for accuracy or edited at least once since January 1, 2020.
Note that there may remain errors due to the number of program locations and inconsistency in reporting from LEAs and other organizations. In particular, some organization types (such as colleges and treatment programs) are not subject to annual reporting requirements, so some records included in this file may in fact be inactive or inaccurately located.
Note that multiple programs may occur at the same location and are represented as separate records. For example, a junior and a senior high school may be in the same building, but each has a separate record in the data layer. Users leverage the "CLASS" and "ORGTYPE" attributes to filter and sort records according to their needs. In general, records at the same physical address will be located at the same coordinates.
This data is now available in CSV format. For that format only, OBJECTID and Shape columns are removed, and the Shape column is replaced by Latitude and Longitude columns.

Maps of California's Wildland Urban Interface (WUI) generated using the Time Step Moving Window (TSMW) method outlined in the paper "Remapping California's Wildland Urban Interface: A Property-Level Time-Space Framework, 2000-2020".
Please cite the original paper:
Berg, Aleksander K, Dylan S. Connor, Peter Kedron, and Amy E. Frazier. 2024. “Remapping California’s Wildland Urban Interface: A Property-Level Time-Space Framework, 2000–2020.” Applied Geography 167 (June): 103271. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.apgeog.2024.103271.
WUI maps were generated using Zillow ZTRAX parcel level attributes joined with FEMA USA Structures building footprints and the National Land Cover Database (NLCD).
All files are geotiff rasters with WUI areas mapped at a ~30m resolution. A raster value of null indicates not WUI, raster value of 1 indicates intermix WUI, and a raster value of 2 indicates interface WUI.
Three WUI maps were generated using structures built on of before the years indicated below:
2000 - "CA_WUI_2000.tif"
2010 - "CA_WUI_2010.tif"
2020 - "CA_WUI_2020.tif"

ANILCA gave the state of Alaska the right to make contingent selections, or top-filing, where land is subject to a federal restriction or withdrawal that prevents the lands adjudication as an entitlement selection. In the event the restriction is lifted, a state selection is automatically attached to the land. It is thus a future interest in a selection for the State, but not considered an actual selection until the relevant withdrawal is lifted. The States ability to make top-filings is closed.
