Description: 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 GIS (NJOGIS.) 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 NJOGIS.
Known as: Parcels and Mod-IV Composite of New Jersey (Cad_parcel_mod4)

Description: This New Jersey Open Space dataset contains Green Acres encumbered and unencumbered protected open space and recreation areas. The Green Acres encumbered lands are owned in fee simple interest by either the state, county, municipality, or a nonprofit agency and have either received funding through the Green Acres State or Local Assistance Program or are listed on a Green Acres approved Recreation and Open Space Inventory (ROSI). The unencumbered open space lands do not fall under Green Acres rules and regulations and therefore have a lesser level of protection. Types of open space property in this data layer include parks, conservation areas, preserves, historic sites, recreational fields, beaches, etc. The data was derived from a variety of mapped sources which vary in scale and level of accuracy. These sources are inclusive of but not exclusive of tax maps, surveys, deeds, digital aerial photography, as well as USGS topographic maps.

Description: The polygons represent selected features from the New Jersey State Farmland Preservation Program (NJSFPP) that are available for public distribution. Included in this dataset are all farms that have been preserved in the NJSFPP; and farms that have received final approval for funding to the NJSFPP. The NJFPP dataset represents the status of the Program from January 23, 1983, inception of the program, through the current publication date.
The geodetic accuracy and precision of the GIS data contained in this file and map shall not be, nor are intended to be, relied upon in matters requiring delineation and location of true ground horizontal and/or vertical controls as would be obtained by an actual ground survey conducted by a licensed Professional Land Surveyor.
