The boundaries of the four designated pilot areas included in the Philly Rising program. Philly Rising focuses on areas with chronic quality of life concerns and works with residents and community groups to address neighborhood issues.

View metadata for key information about this dataset.The PSA boundaries replaced a much smaller boundary, Sectors in 2009. In several Districts, PSA's split Sector boundaries and therefore a historical comparison would not necessarily be accurate. These polygon features were created by the Crime Mapping & Analysis Unit and they represent an initiative by the Philadelphia Police Department that started in 2009. A Police District can have up to 4 PSA's and as few as 2. There is a Police Lieutenant assigned to each PSA and officers are limited to patrol their specific boundary with the goal of familiarity with the area residents and businesses.See also the related datasets:Police DistrictsPolice DivisionsFor questions about this dataset, contact publicsafetygis@phila.gov.

Municipal boundaries for DVRPC Region with Philadelphia's County Planning Areas. Municipal Boundaries have been edited by DVRPC to create a more accurate, seemless regional dataset for the DVRPC region and its surrounding area. This dataset was compiled from multiple sources. Original data sources (in order of drawing rank): DVRPC - for Mercer, Burlington, Camden, Gloucester counties in NJ (an adaptation of NJOIT's Mun Bounds) and Bucks, Montgomery, Philadelphia, Chester, and Delaware counties in PA. In most cases, boundaries have been adjusted to align with parcel data. Due to the name change from Washington Twp to Robbinsville Twp in Mercer County, the unique ID (GEOID) for this municipality has changed from 3402177210 to 3402163850 . However, if you download 2000 census data from the Bureau's website, the unique ID (GEOID) for Robbinsville Township will still be 3402177210 in the census data…you will have to manually change its GEOID to 3402163850 in order to get the 2000 data to join to the MCD file correctly. Edited in April 2021 to match PCPC's planning district boundaries and numbers dated 2013

This polygon layer establishes the administrative boundaries of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, United States, otherwise known as the study area. These data are part of the Atlas of Urban Expansion.

Data from the Department of License and Inspections, Planning, Parks and Recreation, Heath, etc, can be viewed on this interactive map. Preset maps can be selected containing datasets from the following categories: Bike Network, Business, Construction, Gun Permit Appeals, Rental Licenses, Vacancy, Violations, and Zoning. Users can also overlay districts on the map, such as Census Tracts or Sanitation Districts. Additional datasets will be added over time.

This EnviroAtlas dataset describes the breakdown of the land cover classes with each Census Block Group. In this community, forest is defined as Trees & Forest, Orchards, and Woody Wetlands. Green space is defined as Trees & Forest, Shrubs, Grass & Herbaceous, Agriculture, Orchards, Woody Wetlands, and Emergent Wetlands. Agriculture is defined as Agriculture and Orchards. Wetlands are defined as Woody Wetlands and Emergent Wetlands. This dataset also includes the area per capita for each block group for some land cover types. This dataset was produced by the US EPA to support research and online mapping activities related to EnviroAtlas. EnviroAtlas (https://www.epa.gov/enviroatlas) allows the user to interact with a web-based, easy-to-use, mapping application to view and analyze multiple ecosystem services for the contiguous United States. The dataset is available as downloadable data (https://edg.epa.gov/data/Public/ORD/EnviroAtlas) or as an EnviroAtlas map service. Additional descriptive information about each attribute in this dataset can be found in its associated EnviroAtlas Fact Sheet (https://www.epa.gov/enviroatlas/enviroatlas-fact-sheets).

This dataset represents a species habitat distribution map for Philadelphia Vireo (Vireo philadelphicus) within the conterminous United States (CONUS) based on 2001 ground conditions. This habitat map was created by applying a deductive habitat model to remotely-sensed data layers within the species' known range. See Gap Analysis Project Species Habitat Maps at https://www.sciencebase.gov/catalog/item/527d0a83e4b0850ea0518326 for more information regarding model process and user constraints. For species specific model information, see the attached Species Habitat Model Report at https://www.sciencebase.gov/catalog/item/58fa530ee4b0b7ea545252af. This habitat map was edited by Mason, Bruce and Girard, Inc.; and reviewed by Steve Williams.

The TIGER/Line shapefiles and related database files (.dbf) are an extract of selected geographic and cartographic information from the U.S. Census Bureau's Master Address File / Topologically Integrated Geographic Encoding and Referencing (MAF/TIGER) Database (MTDB). The MTDB represents a seamless national file with no overlaps or gaps between parts, however, each TIGER/Line shapefile is designed to stand alone as an independent data set, or they can be combined to cover the entire nation. Face refers to the areal (polygon) topological primitives that make up MTDB. A face is bounded by one or more edges; its boundary includes only the edges that separate it from other faces, not any interior edges contained within the area of the face. The Topological Faces Shapefile contains the attributes of each topological primitive face. Each face has a unique topological face identifier (TFID) value. Each face in the shapefile includes the key geographic area codes for all geographic areas for which the Census Bureau tabulates data for both the 2020 Census and the annual estimates and surveys. The geometries of each of these geographic areas can then be built by dissolving the face geometries on the appropriate key geographic area codes in the Topological Faces Shapefile.

This EnviroAtlas dataset describes the percentage of a 15-m riparian buffer that is forested. In this community, tree cover is defined as Trees & Forest, and Woody Wetlands. There is a potential for decreased water quality in areas where the riparian buffer is less forested. The displayed line represents the center of the analyzed riparian buffer. The water bodies analyzed include hydrologically connected streams, rivers, connectors, reservoirs, lakes/ponds, ice masses, washes, locks, and rapids within the EnviroAtlas community area.

A scope of work was developed in response to a request by the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers, Philadelphia District. The request was to perform a topographic change grid analysis for the Frankford 7.5-minute quadrangle, 1:24,000-scale topographic map, which includes the Wissinoming neighborhood, and the Germantown 7.5-minute quadrangle, which includes the Logan and Feltonville neighborhoods of the City of Philadelphia. The following tasks were performed under this scope of work: A GPS-corrected GIS grid analysis for each quadrangle was completed and is accompanied by documentation that describes procedures and provides metadata of the informational content of the GIS. A high-resolution global positioning system (GPS) survey was conducted for each topographic quadrangle in order to evaluate and correct systematic discrepancies in elevation between the modern and historic surveys. Prior to release, the fully documented GPS-corrected GIS grid analysis for each quadrangle was reviewed for (1) com-pleteness of documentation and for (2) appropriate analysis and discussion of uncertainties. The following report is in fulfillment of the tasks outlined in this scope of work and was performed by the U. S. Geological Survey for the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers, Philadelphia District under MIPR agreement number: W25PHS93358288.
