Abstract
This polygon data layer represents tax parcels for Waupaca County, Wisconsin in 2013. It is a feature class within the geodatabase, Waupaca_Parcels_2013.gdb. [Tax parcel map of Waupaca County, Wisconsin. The layer was derived from a variety of source maps including: mylar county parcel maps, plats of surveys, deed descriptions, subdivision maps, certified survey maps, highway right-of-way plats, and township highway right-of-way maps. These source materials were of several different scales and were from dates ranging from the early 1850's to the present. This map provides a useful representation of the geometry and topology of tax parcels and is suitable for its intended purpose. It is not, however, meant to be used for the determination of land ownership or to be in any way a substitute for the land ownership and interest descriptions contained in individual deeds. The tax parcel layer is available in a county-wide or individual layer for each township, city, or village.]
Purpose
This layer is intended for reference and mapping purposes, and may be used for basic applications such as viewing, querying, and map output production, or to provide a basemap to support graphical overlays and analysis with other spatial data. [This information is intended to be used primarily for the base layer for overlaying all of the digital layers that were digitized in the parcel conversion efforts of Waupaca County. The primary use of the digital parcel layer is to assist the Waupaca County Property Listing Office in their daily activities and is the official tax parcel map source.]
