- Title:
- Sussex County Open Space [New Jersey]
- Description:
- This data set contains protected open space and recreation areas within the boundaries of Sussex County, NJ. Types of property in this data layer include parcels such as parks, forests, trails, natural areas and wildlife management areas. The data was derived from tax information by parcel with property classes of 15A (Public School Property), 15B Other School Property, 15C (Public Property), 15D (Church & Charitable Property), 15E (Cemeteries & Graveyards) and 15F (Other Exempt). Parcels were linked with MOD4 records using a Unique ID. Queries were created based on the property classes listed above, which resulted in the base open space layer. For QA purposes, the Open Space .shp file was cross-referenced and verified using the online NJACTB tax database (https://www.njactb.org/) as well as park, wildlife management area, natural lands trust and wildlife refuge maps. Using the same process, facility names were also identified and added to the open space .shp file. Within the 15C classifications, there were several parcel types that were not included in the Open Space layer, including forclosed or tax lien properties, government buildings, offices, garages etc. Within the 15D classification churches were not included; for 15F rescue services (Fire Houses, Ambulance Squads) and disabled veterans were not included.
