This parcels data set is a spatial representation of municipal tax lots for Hudson County, New Jersey that have been extracted from the NJ statewide parcels composite by the NJ Office of Information Technology, Office of GIS (NJOGIS). Parcels at county boundaries have been modified to correspond with the NJ county boundaries and the parcels in adjacent counties.Each parcel contains a field named PAMS_PIN based on a concatenation of the county/municipality code, block number, lot number and qualification code. Using the PAMS_PIN, the dataset can be joined to the MOD-IV database table that contains supplementary attribute information regarding lot ownership and characteristics. Due to irregularities in the data development process, duplicate PAMS_PIN values exist in the parcel records. Users should avoid joining MOD-IV database table records to all parcel records with duplicate PAMS_PINs because of uncertainty regarding whether the MOD-IV records will join to the correct parcel records. There are also parcel records with unique PAMS_PIN values for which there are no corresponding records in the MOD-IV database tables. This is mostly due to the way data are organized in the MOD-IV database.The polygons delineated in the dataset do not represent legal boundaries and should not be used to provide a legal determination of land ownership. Parcels are not survey data and should not be used as such.The MOD-IV (Tax Assessor's) table for the county is packaged together with the parcels as one download. The MOD-IV system provides for uniform preparation, maintenance, presentation and storage of property tax information required by the Constitution of the State of New Jersey, New Jersey Statutes and rules promulgated by the Director of the Division of Taxation. MOD-IV maintains and updates all assessment records and produces all statutorily required tax lists for property tax bills. This list accounts for all parcels of real property as delineated and identified on each municipality's official tax map, as well as taxable values and descriptive data for each parcel. Tax List records were received as raw data from the Taxation Team of NJOIT which collected source information from municipal tax assessors and created the statewide table. This table was subsequently processed for ease of use with NJ tax parcel spatial data and split into an individual table for each county.***NOTE*** For users who incorporate NJOGIS services into web maps and/or web applications, please sign up for the NJ Geospatial Forum discussion listserv for early notification of service changes.

The New Jersey Office of Information Technology (OIT), Office of GIS (OGIS) has enhanced the previously published NJ Department of Transportation (DOT) Roadway Network GIS data set to create a fully segmented Road Centerlines of New Jersey feature class. This dataset includes fully parsed address information and additional roadway characteristics. It provides the geometric framework for display and query of relevant non-spatial data published as separate tables that can be joined to the feature class. The enhancement process included integration of multiple data sets, primarily those developed and maintained by county agencies in New Jersey and the US Census Bureau.At the present time, there are known issues with the linear referencing systems contained within this data. The most prevalent issues appear to be with the Parent linear referencing system. It is strongly recommended that users utilize the NJDOT Roadway Network data for linear referencing at this time. The NJ Office of GIS is currently working to correct the linear referencing issues.

AnalysisFEMA's National Flood Hazard Layer (NFHL) and the CDC's Social Vulnerability Index (SVI) were cross referenced to produce a Place Vulnerability Analysis for Hudson County, NJ. Using ArcGIS Pro, the location of interest (Hudson County) was first determined and the Flood Hazard and SVI layers were clipped to this extent. A new feature class, intersecting the two, was then created using the Intersect Tool. The output of this process was the Hudson County Place Vulnerability Layer. Additional Layers were added to the map to assess important special needs infrastructure, community lifelines, and additional hazard risks within the most vulnerable areas of the county.LayersWildfire Hazard Potential: Shows the average wildfire hazard potential for the US on a scale of 1-5.

Three classes of impervious surfaces--buildings, roads, and other impervious--were mapped for New Jersey through a semi-automated process developed using eCognition software. The automated feature extraction workflow used a Geographic Object-Oriented Image Analysis (GEOBIA) framework to extract the three impervious classes from the source datasets which include digital imagery, LiDAR point clouds and several vector data sets including Land use/land cover, road centerlines and hydrographic features, using a rule-based expert system.

This geodatabase contains the highest publicly accessible natural elevations ("high points") in each county in New Jersey. Five of New Jersey's 21 counties have landfills as their highest elevation. Due to the fact that these elevations can change substantially over short periods of time, they are not regarded as absolute high points in the dataset.

Additionally, some of the highest points are on private land. These points were excluded from the dataset because the public do not have access to these high points. The list of counties where the highest point is a landfill or on private property include:

Atlantic County, Hammond Town-Private Property 147 feet Burlington County, Woodland Township-Private Property 224 feet Camden County, Gloucester Township-Landfill Cape May County, Woodbine Township-Landfill Cumberland County, Deerfield Township-Landfill Gloucester County, Woolwich Township-Landfill Hudson County, Guttenberg- Private Property 264 feet Hunterdon County, Lebanon Township- Private Property 1,072 feet Monmouth County, Marlboro Township & Holmdel Township- Private Property Salem County, Upper Pittsgrove Township-Landfill 176 feet Somerset County, Bernardsville Borough-Private Property 856 feet Union County, Berkeley Heights Township-Private Property 565 feet

The data for this map is populated using the 2022 Blue Star Memorial Locations Excel file Statewide. This file is updated as needed (new marker installations requires updating at the time of dedication) when staff verifies locations and conditions. This is a Statewide program and therefore encompasses the entire state of NJ. Currently the only County without plans for a Blue Star is Hudson. This data set provides the coordinates of all Blue Star locations within the State of New Jersey and provides a short description of each site with photos.The data are stored as a point features in an enterprise geodatabase and published as an ArcGIS Online Feature Layer.
