This Layer shows all streams in York County Pennsylvania. The connected network of streams and waterways of York County are indicated as single lines in this coverage. Waterways are given connected topology to show the direction of flow from the headwaters of the stream through the watershed to the extent of the coverage. With ARC Network data can be used for watershed modelling. This Layer was originated from a Layer from PA DEP. York County has made updates to it as the county staff saw fit. With most nobable update being the hidden field used if it was hidden from view in the 2008 PA Map Aerial. Other Aerials used was the 2003 PA Map Aerial and 2015 York County Orthophoto.

The Unique Features GIS layer represents spatially distinct or rare geographic elements within York County, Pennsylvania. This dataset includes features of ecological, cultural, historical, geological, or land use significance that are not commonly found elsewhere in the region.

The layer supports land use planning, environmental assessment, resource management, and conservation efforts by highlighting locations of particular value or rarity.

This data set is a digital soil survey and generally is the most detailed level of soil geographic data developed by the National Cooperative Soil Survey. The information was prepared by digitizing maps, by compiling information onto a planimetric correct base and digitizing, or by revising digitized maps using remotely sensed and other information.

This Parks GIS Layer is a geospatial dataset that provides comprehensive information on public parks and recreational areas within York County, Pennsylvania. This layer includes the spatial boundaries of parks, along with key attribute data such as park names, locations, sizes (area), ownership (e.g., city, county, state), and available amenities (e.g., playgrounds, trails, sports facilities). It serves as a critical resource for urban planning, environmental analysis, public engagement, and recreational planning. The data is regularly updated to reflect changes in park boundaries and facilities and is intended for use by government agencies, planners, researchers, and the general public.

The Roads GIS layer provides a comprehensive spatial dataset representing the road network within a York County, Pennsylvania. This layer includes various types of roads such as highways, primary roads, secondary roads, and local streets, enabling detailed analysis and mapping for transportation planning, navigation, infrastructure management, and urban development. Attributes typically include road classification, surface type, road length, connectivity, and traffic information where available. The Roads GIS layer serves as a critical foundation for geographic information systems used by government agencies, urban planners, engineers, and researchers to support decision-making and improve transportation systems.

This data set represents the extent, approximate location and type of wetlands and deepwater habitats in the conterminous United States. These data delineate the areal extent of wetlands and surface waters as defined by Cowardin et al. (1979). Certain wetland habitats are excluded from the National mapping program because of the limitations of aerial imagery as the primary data source used to detect wetlands. These habitats include seagrasses or submerged aquatic vegetation that are found in the intertidal and subtidal zones of estuaries and near shore coastal waters. Some deepwater reef communities (coral or tuberficid worm reefs) have also been excluded from the inventory. These habitats, because of their depth, go undetected by aerial imagery. By policy, the Service also excludes certain types of "farmed wetlands" as may be defined by the Food Security Act or that do not coincide with the Cowardin et al. definition. Contact the Service's Regional Wetland Coordinator for additional information on what types of farmed wetlands are included on wetland maps.

This GIS layer represents the geographic boundaries of Agricultural Security Areas (ASAs) within York County, Pennsylvania, which are designated regions within a municipality where agriculture is encouraged and protected. ASAs are established under state or local legislation to promote the continued use of farmland for agricultural production and to limit non-agricultural development that may negatively impact farming operations. This dataset includes spatial information such as parcel boundaries, ASA designations, and associated attributes (e.g., approval dates, municipalities, landowner participation). The layer supports land use planning, farmland preservation initiatives, and policy development by providing critical spatial context for assessing agricultural viability and development pressures.

The Zoning GIS Layer provides a comprehensive spatial representation of zoning districts within the jurisdictional boundaries of York County, Pennsylvania. This dataset delineates zoning classifications as defined by the local zoning ordinance, including but not limited to residential, commercial, industrial, mixed-use, and special-purpose zones. Each polygon feature is attributed with relevant zoning codes, descriptions, and regulatory references to support land use planning, development review, policy analysis, and public inquiry. The layer is maintained by the York County Planning Commission (YCPC) and is updated regularly to reflect approved zoning changes, amendments, and corrections. This layer is intended for use by planners, developers, government officials, and the general public for decision-making, permitting, and long-range planning purposes.

This Zipcode GIS Layer is a spatial dataset that outlines the boundaries of ZIP code areas across York County, Pennsylvania. This layer is used in Geographic Information Systems (GIS) to support mapping, analysis, and decision-making based on location. Each ZIP code area is represented as a shape on the map and includes basic information such as the ZIP code, city, and state. This data is useful for a wide range of applications including business planning, public services, marketing, transportation, and emergency response. The Zipcode GIS Layer allows users to visualize and analyze geographic patterns, such as population distribution, service coverage, and regional trends. It can be used on its own or combined with other spatial data for more detailed studies.

This Fire Stations GIS Layer provides a geospatial representation of fire station locations within York County, Pennsylvania. It includes precise coordinates, station names, operational details, and coverage zones, enabling effective emergency response planning, resource allocation, and public safety management. By integrating spatial data with demographic and infrastructure information, this layer supports urban planning, risk assessment, and disaster management efforts. The dataset is regularly updated to reflect changes in station status and infrastructure, ensuring accurate and timely information for first responders, planners, and policymakers.
