Abstract:
This dataset contains the boundaries of Critical Environmental and Historic Sites (CEHS2) of the NJ State Development and Redevelopment Plan (NJSDRP). CEHS's are areas, generally less than one square mile, which include one, or more, environmentally or historically sensitive features and are recognized by the State Planning Commission. CEHS locations were submitted by county and local entities. All sites submitted were accepted, with minimal requirement for documentation. Refer to the NJSDRP for further description of the geographic nature of CEHS's.
Purpose:
The CEHS2 file was created to help implement the goals of the New Jersey State Plan. To protect and manage the state's large areas of natural and environmentally significant resources, the Sate Plan Policy Map relies on the Environmentally Sensitive/Rural Planning Area and the Environmentally Sensitive Planning Area to direct development into Centers. But there are many environmentally sensitive features and landscapes of historic or aesthetic significance that are less than one square mile in extent or whose configuration does not readily permit application of the Policy Objectives of these Planning Areas. Additionally, many sites of historic, cultural, scenic or environmental sensitivity lie within developed areas or within Metropolitan, Suburban or Fringe Planning Areas. The Critical Environmental Sites (CES) and Historic and Cultural Sites (HCS) designations are used to help organize planning for new development or redevelopment by singling out the elements of natural systems, small areas of habitat, historic sites, and other features that should continue to be expressed in the future landscape through protection and restoration. The presence of CES and HCS gives land owners and developers important advance information on how to shape their proposals for development of the land around them, focusing on including them within the design and function of the development whenever possible, while protecting them from adverse impacts. Designating a site as a CES or an HCS means that the site is of local, regional or statewide significance and that its protection and enhancement is of primary importance. Refer to the NJSDRP for further description of the geographic nature of Critical Environmental Sites and Historic and Cultural Sites. This file is used for making maps illustrating the NJSDRP, for analyzing the NJSDRP and for comparison to other GIS files and mapping. The State Plan is not itself a regulation but a statement of State policy that has been adopted by the State Planning Commission pursuant to statute to guide State, regional and local agencies in the exercise of their statutory authority.

Political Boundaries of NJ. nj_munis. The file has elements going back to 2001 using the DEP st_mun file. It includes updates to the various political boundaries files over the years. Many of the boundaries have been updated,, but not all. Some boundaries known coordinates are greatly divergent from the earlier files and will not be updated without approval of the State Planning Commission, or with the relase of a new state plan. Updated versions were used as they became availabale.

New Jersey 2012-2013 High Resolution Orthophotography, NAD83 NJ State Plane Feet, MrSID MG4. Digital orthophotography of New Jersey in NJ State Plane Coordinate System NAD83 Coordinates, U.S. Survey Feet. The aerial photography of New Jersey was captured in March and April 2012. Multi-spectral digital orthophotography was produced at a scale of 1:2400 (1"=200') with a 1 foot pixel resolution for the entire state, totaling approximately 8,162 square miles..Digital orthophotography combines the image characteristics of a photograph with the geometric qualities of a map. Each digitized perspective aerial photograph is rectified for camera lens distortion, vertical displacement caused by terrain relief and variations in aircraft altitude and orientation.

State of New Jersey Composite of Parcels Data (2016), New Jersey State Plane NAD83
Source_Contribution:
The statewide composite of parcels (cadastral) data for New Jersey was developed during the Parcels Normalization Project in 2008-2014 by the New Jersey Office of Information Technology, Office of Geographic Information Systems (OGIS). The normalized parcels data are compatible with the New Jersey Department of Treasury MOD-IV system currently used by Tax Assessors. This composite of parcels data serves 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.
Multiple temporal iterations of this file have been used over the years. Elements of older, less precise boundaries exist in the file.

Mapping submitted by all 21 counties in the state was submitted and integrated into the plan mapping as appropriate through cross-acceptance. Mapping also has been submitted by local government in the process of completing both plan endorsements and map amendments. Mapping has been submitted in both hard-copy maps as well as digital files. All mapping either hard-copy or digital is on file at the Office for Planning Advocacy.

Process_Step:
Process_Description:
Through the Cross-acceptance process, a series of 1:24000 film USGS quadrangle registered maps defining the CEHS boundaries of the New Jersey State Development and Redevelopment Plan was created. Locations of the boundaries were originally refined using hardcopy orthophotouquads as produced by Markhurd Corp (1986). Later boundaries were digitized using digital orthophotos at 3-meter resolution (1991), and later still, using 1995 digital orthophotos at 1-meter resolution from USGS. Updated orthophotos were used as they became available.
