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.

Planning Area Boundaries are design to facilitate long range planning at the community level. Roanoke County’s community planning areas were established in the mid-1980s as part of the 1985 Comprehensive Plan. Planning area boundaries were based upon a combination of tax map limits, elementary school districts, and community characteristics. Most of the names for the planning areas are loosely based on community elementary schools and fire and rescue stations. The planning area boundaries were updated in 2011 to correspond with recent planning area studies. Planning Area Boundaries are maintained within the Administration Feature and is dissolved out weekly.Administration is a polygon feature consisting of the smallest statistical areas bounded by visible features such as roads, streams, railroad tracks, and mountain ridges, as well as by nonvisible boundaries such as jurisdictional limits, school district, public safety boundaries, voting precincts, and census blocks. This methodology allows for single stream editing to move coincidental boundaries across many aggregate datasets simultaneously. Administration is maintained though an ArcGIS topology class in conjunction with County Parcels and Zoning. The topology prevents self-intersection and gaps, while ensuring complete coverage amongst the participating features.

The Floodplain Overlay is intended to prevent hazards due to flooding, including but not limited to loss of life, property, and tax base.(A) The purpose of these floodplain provisions is to prevent the following hazards:1. The loss of life and property;2. The creation of health and safety hazards;3. The disruption of commerce and governmental services;4. The extraordinary and unnecessary expenditure of public funds for flood protection and relief; and,5. The impairment of the tax base.(B) These provisions are designed to accomplish the above purposes by:1. Regulating uses, activities, and development which, acting alone or in combination with other existing or future uses, activities, and development, will cause unacceptable increases in flood heights, velocities, and frequencies;2. Restricting or prohibiting certain uses, activities, and development from locating within areas subject to flooding;3. Requiring all those uses, activities, and developments that do occur in flood-prone areas to be protected and/or floodproofed against flooding and flood damage;4. Protecting individuals from buying lands and structures which are unsuited for intended purposes because of flood hazards.See Roanoke County Code: SEC. 30-74. - FO FLOODPLAIN OVERLAY DISTRICT.
