| Description | |||
| Abstract: Represents the current corporation line for the City of Richmond, Virginia. | |||
| Purpose: Used to map the shared City boundaries with Henrico County to the north and Chesterfield County to the south. All thematic GIS areas are to adhere to this commonly used boundary. | |||
| Supplemental Information: In 2002, a GIS regionalization project was carried out as an effort involving Richmond, Chesterfield and Henrico counties, for the purpose of defining the shared corporation line without conducting a very expensive field survey. The goal was to create a ‘seamless,’ agreed-upon boundary between Richmond and its adjacent jurisdictions, for use in our GIS systems. As part of the process in defining the City Boundary GIS data source, the City of Richmond parcel lines were corrected to best possible accuracy using both Chesterfield and Henrico Counties where parcels share boundaries. The following source data were used in the process to maintain the best synthesis between relative positional accuracy and aesthetics of Richmond parcel lines and the adjacent jurisdictions. Source Data: Assessor of Real Estate -Map Block Cards (keycards) -Existing surveys and plats on file -Deeds on file -Parcel record information entered into CAMA / Proval Public Works -Block folders containing surveys, descriptions and plats -Baseline sheets -DPW drawings -DPW had in their possession the legal document of 1942 corporation line agreement between Richmond and Henrico County -DPW had in their possession the legal document of 1970 corporation line agreement between Richmond and Chesterfield County. -1999 and 2002 Orthophotography Chesterfield County GIS -Parcels shapefile -Hydrology shapefile -County Boundary shapefile -Easements shapefile Henrico County GIS -Parcels shapefile -Hydrology shapefile -County boundary shapefiles City of Richmond Real Estate Assessor: http://www.richmondgov.com/Assessor/index.aspx | |||
