The H-GAC ZIP code coverage includes polygons and their attributes for Harris, Fort Bend, Brazoria, Galveston, Chambers, Liberty, Montgomery, Waller, Austin, Colorado, Matagorda Wharton and Walker County. It was primarily created from the census 2002 ZIP code boundary data with secondary source data coming from Centerpoint ZIP code, Esri 2009 ZIP code, address point data from centerpoint and counties, CRIS ( Carrier Route Information System) data, US Postal Services Online site ( Look up a ZIP code) and parcels. Must Not Overlap and Must Not have Gaps topology rules have been used in order to create an accurate ZIP code layer. The layer represents physical ZIP codes and a few PO BOX ZIP codes are included rural areas . PO BOX ZIP codes can be identifying by "zip_type" field in the attribute table.

This layer is a component of Zipcodes.

Vector polygon map data of city limits from Houston, Texas containing 731 features.

City limits GIS (Geographic Information System) data provides valuable information about the boundaries of a city, which is crucial for various planning and decision-making processes. Urban planners and government officials use this data to understand the extent of their jurisdiction and to make informed decisions regarding zoning, land use, and infrastructure development within the city limits.

By overlaying city limits GIS data with other layers such as population density, land parcels, and environmental features, planners can analyze spatial patterns and identify areas for growth, conservation, or redevelopment. This data also aids in emergency management by defining the areas of responsibility for different emergency services, helping to streamline response efforts during crises..

This city limits data is available for viewing and sharing as a map in a Koordinates map viewer. This data is also available for export to DWG for CAD, PDF, KML, CSV, and GIS data formats, including Shapefile, MapInfo, and Geodatabase.
