Description: This dataset is a polygon representation of the parcels for the City of Quincy, Massachusetts. Edits to a base parcel file were made to the spatial and tabular data in order to bring the file in compliance with November 2010 MassGIS Level III Standards for Digital Parcel Files. These edits included ensuring that the parcel fabric was continuous and closed with no gaps or overlaps. Additionally, parcels were snapped to the legislatively approved MassGIS TOWNSSURVEY_ARC town boundary datalayer and compared against the 2008 30 cm MassGIS Ortho Imagery. Polygons were assigned a LOC_ID that links to the M243Assessor table and other fields were populated where they were known and applicable.

Description: <DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><DIV><P><SPAN>The political boundary datalayer is a polygon representation of town boundaries created from arcs developed from survey coordinates extracted from the 68-volume Harbor and Lands Commission Town Boundary Atlas for the 351 communities (cities and towns) in Massachusetts. The Atlas was published in the early 1900's and is maintained by the Survey Section of Massachusetts Highway Department. For communities with a coastal boundary, MassGIS has collaborated with Massachusetts Water Resources Authority and the Department of Environmental Protection to complete a 1:12000 scale coastline. The boundary for the coastline was defined as being the upland side of tidal flats and rocky inter-tidal zones. Note that the 351 communities are the official municipal names, not including "villages" or other sections of towns. The TOWNSSURVEY_POLYM layer was created by dissolving the TOWNSSURVEY_POLY feature class; a subset of the attribute table was retained, and the AREA and SQUARE_MILES fields were calculated for the entirety of each town.</SPAN></P></DIV></DIV></DIV>
