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 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 dataset represents the official boundaries of municipalities within York County. It is a polygon layer delineating the spatial extent of incorporated cities, towns, and other municipal entities. The data is compiled from authoritative sources including local government records, cadastral data, and legal boundary descriptions. It is maintained to support land-use planning, emergency response, infrastructure development, taxation, and general governance activities. Each polygon includes attributes such as the municipality name, type (e.g., city, town, borough), unique identifier codes (such as FIPS or local codes), and relevant administrative information. The dataset is intended for use in Geographic Information System (GIS) applications and is accurate to 1:2400 scale. This dataset is updated as needed and reflects the most recent boundary changes. Users are advised to consult with the respective municipal planning departments for the most up-to-date legal boundaries.
The PA Department of Conservation and Natural Resources (DCNR) and PA Game Commission (PGC) have teamed up to create an interactive map specifically for hunters. Collectively, State Forest Land and Gamelands comprise over 3.7 million acres of public forest open to hunting in Pennsylvania. Hunters can use this map to:View public forests open to hunting.Search hunting seasons and bag limits across different parts of the state.Display hunting hours (starting/ending times) across different parts of the state.Add personal GPS data to the map (waypoints and tracklogs).View different types of wildlife habitat across public forest lands, including mature oak forests, meadows, food plots, openings, winter thermal (coniferous) cover, and young aspen forest.See where recent timber harvests have occurred on public forest lands.Get deer management assistance program (DMAP) information for state forest lands.Add map layers associated with chronic wasting disease (CWD).Identify where bear check stations are located and get driving directions.Display the elk hunting zones and get information about them.Get the location of gated roads opened for hunters on public forest lands and when those gates will be opened.Analyze graphs and trends in antlerless/antlered deer harvests and antlerless license allocations from 2004 to the present.
