Title:

Parcel Groups (35 Acres and Above) in New Jersey [New Jersey]

Description:

This data was generated to help promote solar installations that provide economic and environmental benefits. Landfills are well-suited for the development of large solar generation projects. Large-scale solar development can offset the costs to cap or remediate these sites and should be encouraged. Other innovative, large-scale solar installations are on the horizon and should be considered in addition to, not in lieu of, smaller-scale, grid-connected applications. This layer contains available New Jersey statewide parcels or parcel groups greater than 35 acres in size selected by their affiliation with solid waste landfill sites. This data will provide basic information regarding property location and ID for parcels, or groups of parcels based upon the above critieria. Important information concerning parcel data in New Jersey: The feature class retains the selected attributes from the updated statewide Municipality boundary data and selected attributes from MODIV tabular information received from the counties. This combined layer gives users the ability to have not only basic block and lot data from the parcels, but county and municipality identifiers from the Municipality layer and block/lot ownership data from the MODIV. Please note that attempts will be made to keep the data current, but users should be made aware that more updated information may reside directly with the counties. Any question as to the currentness of the data should be confirmed with the associated county entity. The statewide composite of parcels (cadastral) data for New Jersey was developed during a Parcels Normalization Project in 2009 by the New Jersey Office of Information Technology, Office of GIS (OGIS). The normalized parcels data are compatible with the New Jersey Department of Treasury Property Assessment Management System (PAMS) in development, and the MOD IV system currently used by Tax Assessors. Parcels data in New Jersey currently exist countywide for 19 of 21 counties, and for 8 additional municipalities. This (nearly) statewide composite of parcels data will serve as one of New Jersey's framework GIS data sets. Stewardship and maintenance of the data will continue to be the purview of county and municipal governments, but the statewide composite will be maintained by OGIS. Normalization of the parcels data utilized 2008 statewide municipal boundaries data, provided by OGIS, as the spatial framework within which to align the parcel data. The resulting, normalized parcels data accurately and correctly edgematch at and across municipal boundaries. Improvements to the municipal boundaries data were made during this process. New municipal, county and state boundaries data sets will be released by OGIS once all parcels data have been normalized. Parcel attributes were normalized to a standard structure, specified in the New Jersey GIS Parcel Mapping Standard, to store parcel information and provide a PIN (parcel identification number) field common to the PIN stored in the PAMS database. The standard is available for viewing and download at https://njgin.nj.gov/NJParcelStandards/NJGISParcelMappingStandard.pdf. When complete, 19 countywide and 8 municipal parcel data sets will be available for download from the New Jersey Geographic Information Network (NJGIN) web site download page at https://njgin.state.nj.us/NJ_NJGINExplorer/DataDownloads.jsp. Please note that these parcel data sets are not intended for use as tax maps. They are intended to provide reasonable representations of parcel boundaries for planning and other purposes.
