Vector polygon map data of property parcels from City of Providence, Rhode Island containing 44,135 features.

Property parcel GIS map data consists of detailed information about individual land parcels, including their boundaries, ownership details, and geographic coordinates.

Property parcel data can be used to analyze and visualize land-related information for purposes such as real estate assessment, urban planning, or environmental management.

Available for viewing and sharing as a map in a Koordinates map viewer. This data is also available for export to DWG for CAD, PDF, KML, CSV, and GIS data formats, including Shapefile, MapInfo, and Geodatabase.

Abstract: This digitized collection contains approximately 90,000 images of Residential Assessment Records (a.k.a. “field cards”) created by the Tax Assessors Department of the City of Providence, Rhode Island. These cards contain information on structural conditions of buildings (e.g., grades of condition for foundations, walls, roofs, building materials, etc.) organized by, street address, and plat & lot number within the City of Providence. The verso of these cards contains structural diagrams, land valuations, and cost computations.

Providence City Field Assessment Records

Series 1: 1940

Creator: Providence City Archives

Language of materials: English

Repository: Providence City Archives

Record Group Number: RG 131.3

Scope and Content: The field cards were developed as a measure to accurately grade the value of a structure for tax purposes within the City of Providence. The strength of the collection, contemporarily, concerns the sections under “Land Valuation” on the verso of the digitized documents, particularly the status for which a building was zoned for (eg., house, apartment, industrial, or commercial structure, etc.). This information helps distinguish the maximum amount of tenants a residential building can have within code. Other areas of interest include quality assessments from building materials to structural condition (eg., cost computation of values before and after deductions of existing conditions and improvements of a structure).

Arrangement: The field cards are digitized and arranged in the Socrata database system accessed by address + plat/lot.

Access to the collection: There are no restrictions to access.

Use of materials: The materials are within public domain. However, researchers are kindly asked to cite the Providence City Archives if reproduced.

Preferred citation: Residential Assessment Records, RG131.3, Providence City Archives.

Polygon vector map data covering city boundaries for City of Providence, Rhode Island containing 1 feature.

Boundary GIS (Geographic Information System) data is spatial information that delineates the geographic boundaries of specific geographic features. This data typically includes polygons representing the outlines of these features, along with attributes such as names, codes, and other relevant information.

Boundary GIS data is used for a variety of purposes across multiple industries, including urban planning, environmental management, public health, transportation, and business analysis.

These data provide an accurate high-resolution shoreline compiled from imagery of PORT OF PROVIDENCE, RI . This vector shoreline data is based on an office interpretation of imagery that may be suitable as a geographic information system (GIS) data layer. This metadata describes information for both the line and point shapefiles. The NGS attribution scheme 'Coastal Cartographic Object Attribute Source Table (C-COAST)' was developed to conform the attribution of various sources of shoreline data into one attribution catalog. C-COAST is not a recognized standard, but was influenced by the International Hydrographic Organization's S-57 Object-Attribute standard so the data would be more accurately translated into S-57.

Last updated 3/9/2016. In 2006, a complete inventory of all the City’s street trees, including trees located within sidewalks, between sidewalks and curbs, or within 6 feet of the street if no sidewalk existed was conducted. One hundred volunteers were trained to record address, location, tree species, tree diameter, condition, and other related information. Trees located in parks and other public property were not included. Approximately 25,000 street trees were counted and the data was loaded into a tree database that the Forestry Division uses daily to manage the trees, track tree work, and record constituent concerns.

This dataset contains property tax information for the calendar year 2021. Taxes are calculated from property values, and billed in Fiscal Year 2022, which runs from July 1, 2021 to June 30, 2022. The properties include Residential, Commercial and Publicly Held parcels and structures.

For decades governments have mapped and monitored their infrastructure to support effective management of cities. That mapping has primarily focused on gray infrastructure, features such as roads and buildings. The Tree Canopy Assessment protocols were developed by the USDA Forest Service to help communities develop a better understanding of their green infrastructure through tree canopy mapping and analytics. Tree canopy is defined as the layers of leaves, branches and stems that provide tree coverage of the ground when viewed from above. When integrated with other data, such as land use or demographic variables, a Tree Canopy Assessment can provide vital information to help governments and residents chart a green future. Tree Canopy Assessments have been carried out for over 80 communities in North America. This study assessed tree canopy for the City of Providence over the 2011 – 2018 time period.
