A web map used to visualize available digital parcel data for Organized Towns and Unorganized Territories throughout the state of Maine. Individual towns submit parcel data on a voluntary basis; the data are compiled by the Maine Office of GIS for dissemination by the Maine GeoLibrary, and where available, the web map also includes assessor data contained in the Parcels_ADB related table.This web map is intended for use within the Maine Geoparcel Viewer Application; it is not intended for use as a standalone web map.Within Maine, real property data is maintained by the government organization responsible for assessing and collecting property tax for a given location. Organized towns and townships maintain authoritative data for their communities and may voluntarily submit these data to the Maine GeoLibrary Parcel Project. Maine Parcels Organized Towns and Maine Parcels Organized Towns ADB are the product of these voluntary submissions. Communities provide updates to the Maine GeoLibrary on a non-regular basis, sometimes many years apart, which affects the currency of Maine GeoLibrary parcels data. Another resource for real property transaction data is the County Registry of Deeds, although organized town data should very closely match registry information, except in the case of in-process property conveyance transactions.

This feature layer provides digital tax parcels for the Organized Towns of the State of Maine. Within Maine, real property data is maintained by the government organization responsible for assessing and collecting property tax for a given location. Organized towns and townships maintain authoritative data for their communities and may voluntarily submit these data to the Maine GeoLibrary Parcel Project. "Maine Parcels Organized Towns Feature" and "Maine Parcels Organized Towns ADB" are the product of these voluntary submissions. Communities provide updates to the Maine GeoLibrary on a non-regular basis, which affects the currency of Maine GeoLibrary parcels data. Another resource for real property transaction data is the County Registry of Deeds, although organized town data should very closely match registry information, except in the case of in-process property conveyance transactions. In Unorganized Territories (defined as those regions of the state without a local government that assesses real property and collects property tax), the Maine Revenue Service is the authoritative source for parcel data. "Maine Parcels Unorganized Territory Feature" is the authoritative GIS data layer for the Unorganized Territories. However, it must always be used with auxiliary data obtained from the online resources of Maine Revenue Services (https://www.maine.gov/revenue/taxes/property-tax) to compile up-to-date parcel ownership information. Property maps are a fundamental base for many municipal activities. Although GIS parcel data cannot replace detailed ground surveys, the data can assist municipal officials with functions such as accurate property tax assessment, planning and zoning. Towns can link maps to an assessor's database and display local information, while town officials can show taxpayers how proposed development or changes in municipal services and regulations may affect the community. In many towns, parcel data also helps to provide public notices, plan bus routes, and carry out other municipal services.

This dataset contains municipality-submitted parcel data along with previously developed parcel data acquired through the Municipal Grants Project supported by the Maine Library of Geographic Information (Maine GeoLibrary). Grant recipient parcel data submissions were guided by standards presented to the Maine GeoLibrary Board on May 21, 2005, which are outlined in the "Standards for Digital Parcel Files" document available on the Maine GeoLibrary publications page (https://www.maine.gov/geolib/policies/standards.html). This dataset also contains municipal parcel data acquired through other sources; the data sources are identified (where available) by the field “FMSCORG”. Note: Join this feature layer with the "Maine Parcels Organized Towns ADB" table (https://maine.hub.arcgis.com/maps/maine::maine-parcels-organized-towns-feature/about?layer=1) for available ownership information. A date field, “FMUPDAT”, is attributed with the most recent update date for each individual parcel if available. The "FMUPDAT" field will not match the "Updated" value shown for the layer. "FMUPDAT" corresponds with the date of update for the individual data, while "Updated" corresponds with the date of update for the ArcGIS Online layer as a whole. Many parcels have not been updated in several years; use the "FMUPDAT" field to verify currency.

This Esri File GeoDatabase (FGDB) contains digital tax parcel data for Maine Organized Towns and includes the following: Parcels (feature layer); Parcels_ADB (table); and GEOCODES (table).Within Maine, real property data is maintained by the government organization responsible for assessing and collecting property tax for a given location.

The Digital Geologic-GIS Map of Mount Desert Island and Vicinity, Acadia National Park, Maine is composed of GIS data layers and GIS tables, and is available in the following GRI-supported GIS data formats: 1.) an ESRI file geodatabase (acad_geology.gdb), a 2.) Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) geopackage, and 3.) 2.2 KMZ/KML file for use in Google Earth, however, this format version of the map is limited in data layers presented and in access to GRI ancillary table information. The file geodatabase format is supported with a 1.) ArcGIS Pro 3.X map file (.mapx) file (acad_geology.mapx) and individual Pro 3.X layer (.lyrx) files (for each GIS data layer). The OGC geopackage is supported with a QGIS project (.qgz) file. Upon request, the GIS data is also available in ESRI shapefile format. Contact Stephanie O'Meara (see contact information below) to acquire the GIS data in these GIS data formats. In addition to the GIS data and supporting GIS files, three additional files comprise a GRI digital geologic-GIS dataset or map: 1.) a readme file (acad_geology_gis_readme.pdf), 2.) the GRI ancillary map information document (.pdf) file (acad_geology.pdf) which contains geologic unit descriptions, as well as other ancillary map information and graphics from the source map(s) used by the GRI in the production of the GRI digital geologic-GIS data for the park, and 3.) a user-friendly FAQ PDF version of the metadata (acad_geology_metadata_faq.pdf). Please read the acad_geology_gis_readme.pdf for information pertaining to the proper extraction of the GIS data and other map files. Google Earth software is available for free at: https://www.google.com/earth/versions/. QGIS software is available for free at: https://www.qgis.org/en/site/. Users are encouraged to only use the Google Earth data for basic visualization, and to use the GIS data for any type of data analysis or investigation. 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). For a complete listing of GRI products visit the GRI publications webpage: https://www.nps.gov/subjects/geology/geologic-resources-inventory-products.htm.

Source geologic maps and data used to complete this GRI digital dataset were provided by the following: Maine Geological Survey. Detailed information concerning the sources used and their contribution the GRI product are listed in the Source Citation section(s) of this metadata record (acad_geology_metadata.txt or acad_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 1:50,000 and United States National Map Accuracy Standards features are within (horizontally) 25.4 meters or 83.3 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 Google Earth, ArcGIS Pro, QGIS 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: https://www.nps.gov/articles/gri-geodatabase-model.htm).

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.

This dataset contains boundary layers for Rachel Carson National Wildlife Refuge: Biddeford Pool Division.

National Wildlife Refuges are federal lands managed by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS). The primary source for boundary information is the USFWS Realty program (status maps, legal surveys). An effort by the USFWS Region 5 (northeast states - ME,NH,VT, MA, RI, CT, NY, PA, NJ, MD, DE, WV, VA) Realty Division, Cartography and Spatial Data Services Branch has resulted in digital refuge boundaries for all refuges in the northeast at a scale of 1:24,000.

The intended application of the data is to serve as a spatial reference of refuge boundaries for other data layers in GIS and mapping applications. It is specifically not intended to be used as a land survey or representation of land for conveyance or tax purposes.

Status maps were registered to geographic coordinates, boundaries were digitized and labeled. Digital files were updated using survey and collateral data, then stepped through 3 levels of quality-control review for spatial and thematic accuracy.

Park Boundary polygons for Acadia National Park, Maine. Use attributes to distinguish between lands in fee-ownership, lands still to be acquired in fee-ownership in accordance with Public Law 99-420 or Public Law 97-335 (inholdings or acquisition parcels), or conservation easements. Conservation easement lands held by the NPS are still in private ownership and are generally not open to public access; please observe landowner rights. NOTE: for official land status information, please contact the NPS Lands Office. This layer is produced, maintained, and used by Acadia National Park for cartographic purposes because it fits well with other local data. It does not represent an official or surveyed boundary and should not be used for land transaction purposes. Lines representing the current fee-ownership boundary (approximate) for Acadia National Park. USERS PLEASE NOTE: Lines are considered estimates only and should not be used for transactions and/or legal descriptions, only for general depictions of land holdings. This data layer, for cartographic purposes, has been adjusted to match local municipal tax parcel maps which are of varying accuracy and may not match survey information where it exists. Data layers are provided in shapefile format.

Within Maine, real property data is maintained by the government organization responsible for assessing and collecting property tax for a given location. Organized towns and townships maintain authoritative data for their communities and may voluntarily submit these data to the Maine GeoLibrary Parcel Project. Maine Parcels Organized Towns and Maine Parcels Organized Towns Aux Data are the product of these voluntary submissions. Communities provide updates to Maine GeoLibrary on a non-regular basis, which affects the currency of Maine GeoLibrary parcels data. Another resource for real property transaction data is the County Registry of Deeds, although organized town data should very closely match registry information, except in the case of in-process property conveyance transactions.To provide a statewide digital tax parcel dataset for Maine. Property maps are a fundamental base for many municipal activities. Although GIS parcels data cannot replace detailed ground surveys, the data can assist municipal officials with functions such as accurate property tax assessment, planning and zoning. Towns can link maps to an assessor's database and display local information.

In many towns, parcels data also helps to provide public notices, plan bus routes, and carry out other municipal services.This dataset contains municipal parcels data along with previously developed parcel data acquired through the municipal grants project by Maine Library of Geographic Information (MLGI). Submission of the municipal grant recipient parcels data was guided by standards presented to the MLGI Board, May 21, 2005, "Standards for Digital Parcel Files" A date field FMUPDAT is attributed with the most recent update date. This dataset also contains municipal parcel data acquired through other sources, the data sets are differenciated by the item FMSCORG.

Maine Statewide Orthoimagery Project - During the spring of 2022 the Woolpert team acquired new 4-band (R, G, B, and NIR). The imagery was acquired covering the entire project area using UltraCam Eagle digital camera systems. All imagery was collected during the 2022 spring flying season during leaf-off conditions for deciduous vegetation in the State of Maine. The sun angle shall be 25-degrees or greater, and streams should be within their normal banks, unless otherwise negotiated. During flight planning and acquisition, a significant effort is made to limit clouds, snow (please note: small amounts of snow such as piles in parking lots, extreme shaded areas, within dense evergreens or unpopulated northern facing slopes may be acceptable), fog, haze, smoke, or other ground obscuring conditions in the imagery. In no case will the maximum cloud cover exceed 5% per image. Within the immediate areas of power plants, factories, or controlled agricultural burns some steam or smoke and/or shadows may be visible on imagery. Woolpert produced new 8-bit, 4-band stacked color digital orthoimagery files in GeoTIFF format with TFW “world file” at a 7.5cm (3-inch) and 15cm (6-inch).

This parcel map viewer primary use is to identify ones parcel information such as taxes, property pics, assessor value and etc.

Point locations of domestic wells reported to the Maine Geological Survey. This dataset is based on an original survey of well drillers in the 1970s, a voluntary well driller reporting program in the mid-1980s, and the present mandatory reporting program which relies on the submission of well information by drillers. Wells have been located using GPS coordinates submitted by the drillers, e911 address information submitted by the drillers and/or ownership data and tax records.

This dataset contains cemetery locations represented by point features located in the approximate center of each cemetery where determined. Cemetery names were added where locations matched MOCA information. Cemeteries that were included in US Board of Geographic Names (GNIS) were also used as well as digital parcel data coded as Cemetery. Cemetery submissions are accepted from the public and through the Maine Cemetery Viewer. http://www.maine.gov/megis/maps/

Polygons representing current and historic lobster pounds in Maine. Lobster pounds are structures where large volumes of lobsters are held before being marketed. Pounds are usually constructed as permeable structures that close off the entrance of a cove.Since 1998, DMR has mapped lobster pounds for use in Environmental Sensitivity Indices that would be utilized during an oil spill response. Pounded lobsters could become contaminated during a spill, and the permeability of pounds can make oil recovery difficult.Pounds were initially mapped in 1998 as points. Pound locations were largely based on local knowledge and telephone calls. In 2010, pound locations were updated using aerial imagery.The current revision represents pounds as polygons, delineating approximately 270 acres of pounds in current and historic use. Pound boundaries were digitized from aerial imagery; the landward extent of pounds was represented using the 2018 Maine Highest Astronomical Tide line. Attribute information was based on a variety of sources, including company websites, licensing data, current/historical imagery, tax records, and local/departmental knowledge.
