"""District boundaries: When the zoning map shows a zoning district boundary as following a particular feature, or reflects a clear intent that the boundary follows the feature, the boundary will be construed as following that feature as it actually exists.Map interpretations: Where any uncertainty exists about a zoning boundary, the actual location of the boundary will be determined by the Zoning Administrator using the following rules of interpretation.(1) A boundary shown on the zoning map as approximately following a river, stream, lake or other watercourse will be construed as following the actual centerline of the watercourse. If, subsequent to the establishment of the boundary, the centerline of the watercourse should move as a result of natural processes (flooding, erosion, sedimentation, etc.), the boundary will be construed as moving with the centerline of the watercourse.(2) A boundary shown on the zoning map as approximately following a ridge line or topographic contour line will be construed as following the actual ridge line or contour line. If, subsequent to the establishment of the boundary, the ridge line or contour line should move as a result of natural processes (erosion, slippage, subsidence, etc.), the boundary will be construed as moving with the ridge line or contour line.(3) A boundary shown on the zoning map as approximately following lot lines or other parcel boundaries assigned by the Will County Supervisor of Assessments will be construed as following such lot lines or parcel boundaries.(4) A boundary shown on the zoning map as approximately following a street or railroad line will be construed as following the centerline of the street or railroad right-of-way.(5) A boundary shown on the zoning map as approximately following the boundary of an adjacent municipality will be construed as following that boundary.(6) A boundary shown on the zoning map as approximately parallel to, or as an apparent extension of, a feature described above will be construed as being actually parallel to, or an extension of, the feature.(7) Zoning boundaries that do not coincide with a property line, parcel boundary, landmark or particular feature will be determined with a scale.(8) It is the intent that the entire unincorporated area of the county, including all land and water areas, rivers, streets, alleys, railroads, and other right-of-ways, be included in the districts established by this zoning ordinance. If any area is not shown on the zoning map as being included in a zoning district, it will be deemed to be classified in the E-1 district until otherwise reclassified by a zoning map amendment in accordance with chapter 155-16.30."""

Boundaries of designated high quality ADID wetlands established as a result of a formal process under the direction of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. Part 404(b)(1) of the Clean Water Act authorizes the USEPA and the US Army Corps of Engineers to identify in advance of specific permit requests aquatic sites which will be considered as areas generally unsuitable for disposal of dredged or fill material. This process is called an Advanced Identification or ADID. Under the ADID process identification of an area as generally unsuitable for fill does not prohibit applications for permits to fill in these areas. Therefore the ADID designation of unsuitability is advisory not regulatory. An ADID designation lets a potential applicant know in advance that a proposal to fill such a site is not likely to be consistent with the 404(b)(1) guidelines, and the USEPA will probably request permit denial. ADID wetland information is also useful in watershed planning, land use planning, public land acquisition programs, natural resource studies and other purposes. The wetland selection criteria and methodology are documented in the publication entitled "Advanced Identification (ADID) Study, Lake County, Illinois. Final Report, November 1992" which is included in this download. Boundaries were delineated by the ADID project team on orthophotograph background with an intended usage scale of 1" = 400', a scale ratio of 1:4800.

'This file is a digital geospatial Environmental Systems Research Institute (Esri) ArcGIS polygon feature class of the tile index for Cook, DuPage, Grundy, Kane, Kendall, Lake, McHenry, and Will County, Illinois. Each tile is 2,500' on a side, and covers an area of 6,250,000 square feet or 143 acres. There are a total of 18,905 tiles, and each tile represents the boundary or extent of each ortho image. This dataset includes a coordinate based tile identification number, a delivery area number, and a project tile category. The delivery area numbers and project tile attributes are a proprietary classification that are unique to this project. This dataset is stored within an ArcGIS 10.1 geodatabase. This dataset is projected using the Transverse Mercator map projection. The grid coordinate system used is the Illinois State Plane Coordinate System, East Zone (Zone Number Zone 3776, FIPS 1201), NAD 83 NSRS2007 (horizontal datum), with ground coordinates expressed in U.S. Survey Feet.'An orthoimage is remotely sensed image data in which displacement of features in the image caused by terrain relief and sensor orientation have been mathematically removed. Orthoimagery combines the image characteristics of a photograph with the geometric qualities of a map. There is no image overlap between adjacent files. Data received at Earth Resources Observation and Science Center (EROS) were reprojected from: Projection: NAD_1983_HARN_StatePlane_Illinois_East_FIPS_1201 Resolution: 6 inch Type: 4 Band to: Standard Product Projection: NAD_1983_UTM_Zone_16N Standard Product Resolution: 0.1500 m Rows: 10000 Columns: 10000 and resampled to align to the U.S. National Grid (USNG) using The National Map. The naming convention is based on the U.S. National Grid (USNG), taking the coordinates of the SW corner of the orthoimage. The metadata were imported and updated for display through The National Map at http://nationalmap.gov/viewer.html Chip-level metadata are provided in HTML and XML format. Data were compressed utilizing IAS software. The compression was JPEG2000 Lossy Compressed. The file format created was .jp2.
