The original historic plat maps for Wisconsin were created between 1832 and 1866. In most cases, the UW Digital Collections Center does not record a specific creation date for the original maps. However, the collection also contains maps which correct previous editions. These more modern maps typically have a specific date or year defined.

Tax parcel map of Waupaca County, Wisconsin. The layer was derived from a variety of source maps including: mylar county parcel maps, plats of surveys, deed descriptions, subdivision maps, certified survey maps, highway right-of-way plats, and township highway right-of-way maps. These source materials were of several different scales and were from dates ranging from the early 1850's to the present. This map provides a useful representation of the geometry and topology of tax parcels and is suitable for its intended purpose. It is not, however, meant to be used for the determination of land ownership or to be in any way a substitute for the land ownership and interest descriptions contained in individual deeds. The tax parcel layer is available in a county-wide or individual layer for each township, city, or village.

This dataset contains DNR Managed Lands as parcels with local property name, and GIS and deed acreages. Parcels are symbolized as fee simple (DNR Owned), DNR easement on private land (open/restricted public access) and DNR lease on federal- and county-owned land. This dataset does not contain closed fee or easement. See metadata/data dictionary for interest (transaction type) classification.The parcels are digitized from deed legal description and based on the DNR Landnet System (Public Land Survey System), Wisconsin Transverse Mercator. This data is updated on a weekly basis.This layer represents the geometry of the real estate holdings of the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources and is not to be interpreted as representing legal property boundaries.

Tax parcel map of Wood County, Wisconsin. Parcels reference the public land survey system and are derived from a variety of sources including recorded deeds, subdivision plats, certified survey maps, right-of-way plats, and plats of surveys. These source materials were of several different scales and were from dates ranging from the early 1850's to the present. The maps are suitable for planning purposes and will be useful for assisting with land title, assessing and survey work.Parcel maps are neither a replacement for recorded documents that form the legal basis for parcel ownership nor should they replace a field survey.

The USGS Protected Areas Database of the United States (PAD-US) is the nation's inventory of protected areas, including public open space and voluntarily provided, private protected areas, identified as an A-16 National Geospatial Data Asset in the Cadastral Theme (http://www.fgdc.gov/ngda-reports/NGDA_Datasets.html). PAD-US is an ongoing project with several published versions of a spatial database of areas dedicated to the preservation of biological diversity, and other natural, recreational or cultural uses, managed for these purposes through legal or other effective means. The geodatabase maps and describes public open space and other protected areas. Most areas are public lands owned in fee; however, long-term easements, leases, and agreements or administrative designations documented in agency management plans may be included. The PAD-US database strives to be a complete “best available” inventory of protected areas (lands and waters) including data provided by managing agencies and organizations. The dataset is built in collaboration with several partners and data providers (http://gapanalysis.usgs.gov/padus/stewards/). See Supplemental Information Section of this metadata record for more information on partnerships and links to major partner organizations. As this dataset is a compilation of many data sets; data completeness, accuracy, and scale may vary. Federal and state data are generally complete, while local government and private protected area coverage is about 50% complete, and depends on data management capacity in the state. For completeness estimates by state: http://www.protectedlands.net/partners. As the federal and state data are reasonably complete; focus is shifting to completing the inventory of local gov and voluntarily provided, private protected areas. The PAD-US geodatabase contains over twenty-five attributes and four feature classes to support data management, queries, web mapping services and analyses: Marine Protected Areas (MPA), Fee, Easements and Combined. The data contained in the MPA Feature class are provided directly by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Marine Protected Areas Center (MPA, http://marineprotectedareas.noaa.gov ) tracking the National Marine Protected Areas System. The Easements feature class contains data provided directly from the National Conservation Easement Database (NCED, http://conservationeasement.us ) The MPA and Easement feature classes contain some attributes unique to the sole source databases tracking them (e.g. Easement Holder Name from NCED, Protection Level from NOAA MPA Inventory). The "Combined" feature class integrates all fee, easement and MPA features as the best available national inventory of protected areas in the standard PAD-US framework. In addition to geographic boundaries, PAD-US describes the protection mechanism category (e.g. fee, easement, designation, other), owner and managing agency, designation type, unit name, area, public access and state name in a suite of standardized fields. An informative set of references (i.e. Aggregator Source, GIS Source, GIS Source Date) and "local" or source data fields provide a transparent link between standardized PAD-US fields and information from authoritative data sources. The areas in PAD-US are also assigned conservation measures that assess management intent to permanently protect biological diversity: the nationally relevant "GAP Status Code" and global "IUCN Category" standard. A wealth of attributes facilitates a wide variety of data analyses and creates a context for data to be used at local, regional, state, national and international scales. More information about specific updates and changes to this PAD-US version can be found in the Data Quality Information section of this metadata record as well as on the PAD-US website, http://gapanalysis.usgs.gov/padus/data/history/.) Due to the completeness and complexity of these data, it is highly recommended to review the Supplemental Information Section of the metadata record as well as the Data Use Constraints, to better understand data partnerships as well as see tips and ideas of appropriate uses of the data and how to parse out the data that you are looking for.

Tax parcel boundary lines including parcel, lot, right-of way meander and water.

The Dane County Parcel Database was derived from a variety of source maps including U.S. General Land Office survey plats, deed descriptions, subdivision plats, certified survey maps and right-of-way plats. All new parcels are entered into the database using coordinate geometry (COGO). The map provides a representation of the geometry and topology of tax parcels. The attributes are derived from the Dane County Treasurers database. It is not intended to be used for the legal determination of land ownership or to be in any way a substitute for the land ownership and interest descriptions contained in individual deeds.

Parcels dated May 2005. Graphics include the basic parcel outline and the land owner name.. Additional details of each parcel, including tax information, are included as data attributes. Source: Brown County, Wisconsin.

This layer is derived from the DNR Managed Lands dataset, dissolved on PROP_CODE. This layer contains fee simple (DNR owned) land, DNR easement on private land and DNR lease on federal- and county-owned land. DNR easements on privately held property are not included. See metadata/data dictionary for interest (transaction type) classification.This dataset contains land managed by DNR represented as property. Use DNR Managed Land Parcels for the individual parcel polygons. This dataset is updated on a weekly basis.

This layer represents the geometry of the real estate holdings of DNR Managed Lands and is not to be interpreted as representing legal property boundaries.Link to the Metadata and Data Dictionary.See also the Public Access Lands interactive mapping application

This layer was originally developed alongside the development of the Wisconsin Trails Network Plan Update GIS mapping application.

This layer displays state trails in Wisconsin. State trails have been segmented into numerous smaller segments when a change in any of the listed attributes change along a state trail: Segment Name, Corridor Number (of network plan corridors), Surface Type, Trail Manager, County, Trail Pass Required, Open Status, Rail Trail, Allowed Use, or overlap with other trails. This layer was updated for with the 2023 Wisconsin Trails Network Plan Update and will receive updates as the above listed attributes change throughout the state trails. The Ice Age National Scenic Trail and North Country National Scenic Trail are not included in this layer, though it is recommended and encouraged that these are used alongside this state trails layer when working with Wisconsin state trails, due to their state trail classification. Both the Ice Age and North Country National Scenic Trails are considered to be both state trails and national scenic trails and are available for download via the links provided. Some trail segments are included in this layer that have been acquired but have not been developed yet. These segments have surface type and other attributes omitted as they are subject to change during their development process. Water Trail Disclaimer:

Water travel is potentially hazardous. There can be no guarantee whatsoever of your safety when participating in kayaking, stand up paddle boarding or other water travel. Shore, weather, and water conditions are in a constant state of change, and you must check weather, tide, currents, and flow data on your own. Be aware of warnings for segments on which you plan to travel. You may check current flow data via USGS (https://waterdata.usgs.gov/wi/nwis/rt). You should also confirm, via personal contact with or calls to government agencies, that water trail sites are still available and that conditions have not changed. You must be careful not to exceed your capabilities and must be prepared to use alternate landing spots in the event that a water trail site cannot be reached for some reason. It is your responsibility to review and plan your route before embarking and to be knowledgeable of water trail you plan to utilize. Use of the Lake Michigan State Water Trail is recommended for experience paddlers only. Launch and other fees may apply and may vary by site along the water trail and it is your responsibility to review fee requirements ahead of arrival or use. The Lake Michigan State Water Trail segment may be a simplified depictions of the water trail. As such, total mileage may vary and it is not intended for use in navigation, determining legal land ownership, or public access. It is your responsibility to verify this information before use of the water trail. It is your responsibility to learn and understand the proper techniques associated with safe water travel and to fully accept and assume all risk of damages, injury or death that may result from attempting to travel to or between the sites described on the following mapping system.Please reach out to Wisconsin DNR Parks & Recreation or Property Planning section staff with questions on this layer, or email DNRFLPropertyPlanningPublicInput@Wisconsin.gov.
