San Mateo County Datsets

In 2018, the Golden Gate National Parks Conservancy (Parks Conservancy) (https://parksconservancy.org), non-profit support partner to the National Park Service (NPS) Golden Gate National Recreation Area (GGNRA), initiated a fine scale vegetation mapping project in Marin County. The GGNRA includes lands in San Francisco and San Mateo counties, and NPS expressed interest in pursuing fine scale vegetation mapping for those lands as well. The Parks Conservancy facilitated multiple meetings with potential project stakeholders and was able to build a consortium of funders to map all of San Mateo County (and NPS lands in San Francisco). The consortium included the San Francisco Public Utilities Commission (SFPUC), Midpeninsula Regional Open Space District (MROSD), Peninsula Open Space Trust (POST), San Mateo City/County Association of Governments, and various County of San Mateo departments including Parks, Agricultural Weights and Measures, Public Works/Flood Control District, Office of Sustainability, and Planning and Building. Over a 3-year period, the project, collectively referred to as the “San Mateo Fine Scale Veg Map”, has produced numerous environmental GIS products including 1-foot contours, orthophotography, and other land cover maps. A 106-class fine-scale vegetation map was completed in April 2022 that details vegetation communities and agricultural land cover types, including forests, grasslands, riparian vegetation, wetlands, and croplands. The environmental data products from the San Mateo Fine Scale Veg Map are foundational and can be used by organizations and government departments for a wide range of purposes, including planning, conservation, and to track changes over time to San Mateo County''s habitats and natural resources.Development of the San Mateo fine-scale vegetation map was managed by the Golden Gate National Parks Conservancy and staffed by personnel from Tukman Geospatial (https://tukmangeospatial.com/), Aerial Information Systems (AIS; http

Aerial imagery map service of San Mateo County. Acquired in 2017.Spatial Reference: 102643 (2227) Pixel Size X: 0.5Pixel Size Y: 0.5The raw geotiff or sid files are not readily available for download. If you need access to the source files please contact the San Mateo County GIS Team at countygis@smcgov.org

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. The Address Ranges Feature Shapefile (ADDRFEAT.dbf) contains the geospatial edge geometry and attributes of all unsuppressed address ranges for a county or county equivalent area. The term "address range" refers to the collection of all possible structure numbers from the first structure number to the last structure number and all numbers of a specified parity in between along an edge side relative to the direction in which the edge is coded. Single-address address ranges have been suppressed to maintain the confidentiality of the addresses they describe. Multiple coincident address range feature edge records are represented in the shapefile if more than one left or right address ranges are associated to the edge. The ADDRFEAT shapefile contains a record for each address range to street name combination. Address range associated to more than one street name are also represented by multiple coincident address range feature edge records. Note that the ADDRFEAT shapefile includes all unsuppressed address ranges compared to the All Lines Shapefile (EDGES.shp) which only includes the most inclusive address range associated with each side of a street edge. The TIGER/Line shapefile contain potential address ranges, not individual addresses. The address ranges in the TIGER/Line Files are potential ranges that include the full range of possible structure numbers even though the actual structures may not exist.

This shapefile contains tax rate area (TRA) boundaries in San Mateo County for the specified assessment roll year. Boundary alignment is based on the 2021 county parcel map. A tax rate area (TRA) is a geographic area within the jurisdiction of a unique combination of cities, schools, and revenue districts that utilize the regular city or county assessment roll, per Government Code 54900. Each TRA is assigned a six-digit numeric identifier, referred to as a TRA number. TRA = tax rate area number

This polyline shapefile depicts an extract of selected geographic and cartographic information, including water, railroad and road features, for the County of San Mateo from the United States Census Bureau Master Address File / Topologically Integrated Geographic Encoding and Referencing (MAF/TIGER) Database (MTDB) for 2014. The MTDB represents a seamless national file with no overlaps or gaps between parts, however, each TIGER/Line File is designed to stand alone as an independent data set, or they can be combined to cover the entire nation. Edge refers to the linear topological primitives that make up MTDB. This "All Lines" shapefile contains linear features such as roads, railroads, and hydrography. Additional attribute data associated with the linear features found in the "All Lines" shapefile are available in relational (.dbf) files that users must download separately. The "All Lines" shapefile contains the geometry and attributes of each topological primitive edge. Each edge has a unique TIGER/Line identifier (TLID) value. This layer is part of a collection of GIS data for San Mateo County, California.

The California Association Local Agency Formation Commissions defines a sphere of influence (SOI) as "a planning boundary outside of an agency’s legal boundary (such as the city limit line) that designates the agency’s probable future boundary and service area." This feature set represents the SOIs of the incorporated jurisdictions for the San Francisco Bay Region.The Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC) updated the feature set in late 2019 as part of the jurisdiction review process for the BASIS data gathering project. Changes were made to the growth boundaries of the following jurisdictions based on BASIS feedback and associated work: Antioch, Brentwood, Campbell, Daly City, Dublin, Fremont, Hayward, Los Gatos, Monte Sereno, Newark, Oakland, Oakley, Pacifica, Petaluma, Pittsburg, Pleasanton, San Bruno, San Francisco (added to reflect other jurisdictions whose SOI is the same as their jurisdiction boundary), San Jose, San Leandro, Santa Clara, Saratoga, and Sunnyvale.Notes: With the exception of San Mateo and Solano Counties, counties included jurisdiction (city/town) areas as part of their SOI boundary data. San Mateo County and Solano County only provided polygons representing the SOI areas outside the jurisdiction areas. To create a consistent, regional feature set, the Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC) added the jurisdiction areas to the original, SOI-only features and dissolved the features by name.Because of differences in base data used by the counties and the MTC, edits were made to the San Mateo County and Solano County SOI features that should have been adjacent to their jurisdiction boundary so the dissolve function would create a minimum number of features.Original sphere of influence boundary acquisitions:Alameda County - CityLimits_SOI.shp received as e-mail attachment from Alameda County Community Development Agency on 30 August 2019Contra Costa County - BND_LAFCO_Cities_SOI.zip downloaded from https://gis.cccounty.us/Downloads/Planning/ on 15 August 2019Marin County - 'Sphere of Influence - City' feature service data downloaded from Marin GeoHub on 15 August 2019Napa County - city_soi.zip downloaded from their GIS Data Catalog on 15 August 2019City and County of San Francisco - does not have a sphere of influenceSan Mateo County - 'Sphere of Influence' feature service data downloaded from San Mateo County GIS open data on 15 August 2019Santa Clara County - 'City Spheres of Influence' feature service data downloaded from Santa Clara County Planning Office GIS Data on 15 August 2019Solano County - SphereOfInfluence feature service data downloaded from Solano GeoHub on 15 August 2019Sonoma County - 'SoCo PRMD GIS Spheres Influence.zip' downloaded from County of Sonoma on 15 August 2019
