The CountywideZoning Dataset

AIMS Coordinators Meeting

1/15/2004

Assist the public by including zoning in AIMS Internet Mapping Application – a “one-stop shopping” resource for geographic data needs across the county

Assist cities in maintaining current zoning information in a more efficient manner

Facilitate countywide communication between entities

Purpose/Reason

Background

Already have unincorporated zoning based on property_pl.shp and subparczoning.shp

Already act as a repository for Prairie Village zoning

21 entities within Johnson County all providing data with different zoning codes and formats

Digital data vs. paper maps

Data Creation

Created geographic data (shapefile) for cities that don’t have it digitally

Obtained digital data from cities that do have it – received in various formats

Able to display splits (subparcel) zoning by using a geographic approach

Developed one shapefile from all sources that “standardizes” zoning fields while keeping unique codes for each entity

Data Automation

Two part process:

Massage data into standard format – .MXD

Merge and dissolve files into one file - .APR

Zoning Database

Data Maintenance

AIMS responsibility will be to merge all datasets, act as a repository and disseminate data

For those cities that don’t keep data digitally, AIMS will update changes received by email or phone

Track different update schedules – some entities update zoning daily, others yearly

Last update is maintained in shapefile

Want to assist and encourage cities with online access to set up automated copy

Goal is to publish weekly

Final Dataset

Almost all entities have contributed – the other few have committed to sending zoning information in the near future

Available on the Internet Mapping Application under

“Other Layers”

http://aims.jocogov.org

Also available in the pub directory for those with access
