Parks in Wake County, NC with amenities.This dataset is updated as Wake County GIS is made aware of new parks. It is maintained by Wake County GIS.GIS metadata is available here.

This dataset provides a spatial representation of Greenway trails and structures within the City of Raleigh. Each segment is represented as a non-survey grade line feature. Segments that have been deemed abandoned or removed have been omitted from this layer. This dataset is suitable for cartographic representation and as an input for further analysis. For example:Style based on Material (MATERIAL) values to show which segments are paved with asphalt, concrete, some other material, or nothing. Combine with Census data to estimate the number of residents who live within 1/2 mile of a Greenway.Use FEMA floodplain boundaries to determine the number of miles of Greenway in a 100 Year flood zone.Overlay upon a digital elevation model to generate an elevation profile along a given segment of Greenway.* This dataset replaced the existing Raleigh Greenway Trails and Greenway Trail Structures datasets as of 8/21/2018. If you are using the API for the datasets that were replaced (Raleigh Greenway Trails: https://maps.raleighnc.gov/arcgis/rest/services/Parks/Greenway/MapServer/0 and Greenway Trail Structures: https://maps.raleighnc.gov/arcgis/rest/services/Parks/Greenway/MapServer/1) please change to use the API of this current dataset. API for the old datasets will no longer work after 9/21/2018.Field Information:

The Digital Geomorphic-GIS Map of Fort Raleigh National Historic Site (1:24,000 scale 2007 mapping), North Carolina is composed of GIS data layers and GIS tables, and is available in the following GRI-supported GIS data formats: 1.) a 10.1 file geodatabase (fora_geomorphology.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 map file (.mapx) file (fora_geomorphology.mapx) and individual Pro layer (.lyrx) files (for each GIS data layer), as well as with a 2.) 10.1 ArcMap (.mxd) map document (fora_geomorphology.mxd) and individual 10.1 layer (.lyr) 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 10.1 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 GIS readme file (caha_fora_wrbr_geology_gis_readme.pdf), 2.) the GRI ancillary map information document (.pdf) file (caha_fora_wrbr_geomorphology.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 (fora_geomorphology_metadata_faq.pdf). Please read the caha_fora_wrbr_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: For a complete listing of GRI products visit the GRI publications webpage: https://www.nps.gov/subjects/geology/geologic-resources-inventory-products.htm. For more information about the Geologic Resources Inventory Program visit the GRI webpage: https://www.nps.gov/subjects/geology/gri,htm. At the bottom of that webpage is a "Contact Us" link if you need additional information. You may also directly contact the program coordinator, Jason Kenworthy (jason_kenworthy@nps.gov). Source geologic maps and data used to complete this GRI digital dataset were provided by the following: North Carolina 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 (fora_geomorphology_metadata.txt or fora_geomorphology_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 1:24,000 and United States National Map Accuracy Standards features are within (horizontally) 12.2 meters or 40 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, 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).

A Stormwater account exists to facilitate public payments into a fund to prevent stormwater damage that naturally arises from water runoff that accumulates as a result of our built environment. This damage comes in the form of flooding of our roads and private property and water quality damage to our river/stream ecosystem. The amount of pavement and other hard surfaces, also known as "impervious surfaces," on each property contributes to potential stormwater damage risks. Therefore, each property owner pays a small fee according to the amount of impervious surface on their property or property for which it shares some obligation.

This contains the full inventory of land under the purview of City of Raleigh Parks, Recreation and Cultural Resources (PRCR). The records within this dataset represent those pieces of land that are developed parks, undeveloped land held by PRCR for future parks, and open spaces maintained by PRCR.This dataset is suitable for cartographic representation and as an input for further analysis. For example:Filter values in the Development Status (DEVELOPED) field to create a map depicting undeveloped park properties.Style based on Park Type (PARK_TYPE) values to show whether a feature represents a neighborhood park, community park, mini park, or nature preserve.Combine with Census data to estimate the number of residents who live within a mile of a park.* This dataset replaced an existing Raleigh Parks dataset as of 8/21/2018. If you are using the API for the dataset that was replaced (https://maps.raleighnc.gov/arcgis/rest/services/Parks/Greenway/MapServer/5 ) please change to use the API of this current dataset. API for the old dataset will no longer work after 9/21/2018.
