This dataset is designed to represent and identify the property boundaries in Lexington-Fayette County. The original dataset was created in late 1990's by a third party that converted existing paper maps to digital GIS files. The data has since been updated by georeferencing recorded plats for corrections and new additions. In cases where the plats do not appear accurate, aerial photos are utilized in attempt to properly locate the property lines. The only except for this process are changes to highway right-of-way in which calls are run from deeds. The geometry of this data is not of survey quality and should not be used for survey purposes. The data is intended for general reference purposes only.As part of the basemap data layers, the parcel boundary map layer is an integral part of the Lexington Fayette-Urban County Government Geographic Information System. Basemap data layers are accessed by personnel in most LFUCG divisions for basic applications such as viewing, querying, and map output production. More advanced user applications may focus on thematic mapping, summarization of data by geography, or planning purposes (including defining boundaries, managing assets and facilities, integrating attribute databases with geographic features, spatial analysis, and presentation output).

GIS data layers are accessed by personnel in most LFUCG divisions for basic applications such as viewing, querying, and map output production.This dataset is designed to represent and identify the urban service area in Lexington-Fayette County. The urban service area is the part of the county where urban services (city garbage collection, street lights, street sweeping) are provided and a higher density for development is allowed. The boundary is defined by Lexington-Fayette Urban County Council Ordinance. The boundary was originally approved in 1958 and has been occasionally modified. Any expansion to the boundary is considered during Division of Planning's comprehensive plan review process, but the recommendation from Planning must receive Urban County Council approval for alteration. After UCG Council approval is received the ordinance is forwarded to the GIS Office for inclusion in the dataset.The data is in ESRI feature class format, but can be exported to any number of supported formats, including shapefile and dxf. The native projection for the data is Kentucky State Plane North (NAD83), but may have been reprojected for use in other applications. Please check metadata to determine current projection.

This cached web mapping service provides access to a seamless version of the Kentucky Topographic Map Series, also know as KyTopo. The Kentucky-specific map series has newly generated contours, spot elevations, and hillshade based on the KyFromAbove LiDAR-derived DEM. Quadrangle names were developed utilizing a USGS methodology that focuses on the most prominent map features. Public domain data from a variety of state and federal agencies was leveraged to create the map series. All layers utilized during production are available on the KyGeoNet as downloadable data or web mapping services. Updates to this map service will be made on a periodic basis.
