This data set is a digital soil survey and generally is the most detailed level of soil geographic data developed by the National Cooperative Soil Survey. The information was prepared by digitizing maps, by compiling information onto a planimetric correct base and digitizing, or by revising digitized maps using remotely sensed and other information. This data set consists of georeferenced digital map data and computerized attribute data. The map data are in a soil survey area extent format and include a detailed, field verified inventory of soils and miscellaneous areas that normally occur in a repeatable pattern on the landscape and that can be cartographically shown at the scale mapped. A special soil features layer (point and line features) is optional. This layer displays the location of features too small to delineate at the mapping scale, but they are large enough and contrasting enough to significantly influence use and management. The soil map units are linked to attributes in the National Soil Information System relational database, which gives the proportionate extent of the component soils and their properties.

This layer provides information on municipal, county, and state boundary monuments located throughout the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. For more information on this layer, you can use the Data Dictionary available in Spreadsheet format. This layer is for use in PennDOT's Open Data Portal. PennDOT is actively updating and maintaining this spatial data. The following sources were used to digitize geometry and populate attributes: USGS Historical Topographic Maps – provided by USGS and ESRI was used as a primary source in geolocating boundary monument points throughout the Commonwealth. Municipal, County, and State boundary monuments are symbolized distinctly within historical USGS Topographic maps. https://www.waymarking.com – provided secondary source information for locating boundary monument point locations, photos, and information. The site is utilized primarily by volunteers and hobbyists who geolocate and catalog physical constructs such as boundary monuments.Google Maps and Google Earth were used to locate boundary monuments and for image acquisition with street view.And with the help of additional DOT departments and agencies such as:Franklin County GIS, Potter County, Tioga County, RETTEW, Professional Survey Societies of NY and PA, Wetmore Surveying, JMT, West Virginia Surveyors Historical Society, National Geodetic SurveyQuestions, comments, or corrections – please contact: Mark Leitzell - mleitzell@pa.govWilliam Havrilchak - wihavrilch@pa.gov

The PA Department of Conservation and Natural Resources (DCNR) and PA Game Commission (PGC) have teamed up to create an interactive map specifically for hunters. Collectively, State Forest Land and Gamelands comprise over 3.7 million acres of public forest open to hunting in Pennsylvania. Hunters can use this map to:View public forests open to hunting.Search hunting seasons and bag limits across different parts of the state.Display hunting hours (starting/ending times) across different parts of the state.Add personal GPS data to the map (waypoints and tracklogs).View different types of wildlife habitat across public forest lands, including mature oak forests, meadows, food plots, openings, winter thermal (coniferous) cover, and young aspen forest.See where recent timber harvests have occurred on public forest lands.Get deer management assistance program (DMAP) information for state forest lands.Add map layers associated with chronic wasting disease (CWD).Identify where bear check stations are located and get driving directions.Display the elk hunting zones and get information about them.Get the location of gated roads opened for hunters on public forest lands and when those gates will be opened.Analyze graphs and trends in antlerless/antlered deer harvests and antlerless license allocations from 2004 to the present.
