- Abstract
- The active tax parcel boundaries for all of Tompkins County for a given year. The boundaries represent the one-to-one match with the parcel boundaries shown on the final paper maps for a given year.
- Purpose
- The parcel boundaries represent legal descriptions of property ownership, as recorded in various public documents in the Tompkins County Clerk's Office. This is the database of property ownership and information in Tompkins County, as mandated by New York State. This database can be related to the New York State Office of Real Property Services (RPS) database extract using either the SWISPRINTK field or the PARCELKEY field.
- Supplemental Information
- Properties that are tracked by an account number (utilities, railroads, etc.) may be shown as several separate tax parcel boundaries, with different tax map print keys, even though they are tracked in the RPS database under the same account number and treated as one single parcel. The parcel region will show these account-number properties as one tax parcel boundary, while the printkey region will show each separate tax parcel boundary that is a part of the account number. As of 2005, the tax parcel boundaries have not been edge-matched by municipality, except for Villages within their respective Town. This data set is derived from the tax parcel region of all tax parcel data sets in Tompkins County and is maintained as a geodatabase featureclass by municipality. For property ownership information please contact the Tompkins County Assessment Department.

- Data Quality Information
- Attribute Accuracy Report
- See Entity and Attribute Information
- Logical Consistency Report
- The taxparcel region from each municipality's tax map data set is appended into one County-wide data set. This data set's topology is created real-time using ArcGIS map and geodatabase topology rules, then converted to an ArcView shapefile. All error checking is done in the source data sets.
- Completeness Report
- Complete parcels for the entire County.
- Horizontal Positional Accuracy Report
- Varies, depending on source of parcel boundary (survey, deed, aerial photo, raw conversion from paper maps). The accuracy of the data set is limited to the accuracy of the 1991 Tompkins County Planimetric Base Map series.

- PARCELKEY
- Real Property Services (RPS) Database parcel key

on the GIS extract of the final-roll RPS database. This field can be
used to relate to the RPS database. (string)

- SWISPRINTK
- Concatenation of SWIS code, "-", and the PRINTKEY field, for
those polygons without an account number (ie, a blank ACCOUNTNUM), or
a concatenation of SWIS code, "-", and the ACCOUNTNUM field (at least
for some polygons with an account number). This field is easily
reproducible within the Real Property Services database extract, and
is used as the primary relate (key) field to the RPS extract from the
parcel data sets. This field is used to create the Print Key region in
this data set. (string)
