Description: A geographic representation of the municipal boundaries updated by SanGIS when notified by LAFCO of a recorded annexation or detachment. The revised layer is published as needed once changes are made and verified. Adjustments are also made to this dataset from ongoing landbase maintenance activities.SanGIS will add individual polygons for annexations to a municipal jurisdiction but will not maintain a separate polygon for the agency losing territory. That is, a polygon will be created for the "gain" but the "loss" will be reflected only by modifying the existing boundary. On an annual basis, SanGIS will reconcile the JUR_MUNICIPAL layer with the JUR_MUNICIPAL_ASR layer developed by the Assessor. This will happen when the Assessor publishes the annual TRA updates. SanGIS will accept the Assessor layer as is and use it as the basis for new annexations/detachments going forward. Individual polygons that have been created in the past year will be incorporated into the municipal boundary as shown on the Assessor's TRA updates. NOTE: The County Assessor's Office JUR_MUNICIPAL_ASR layer is the official Municipal Boundary layer; however, it is created for tax purposes and is only updated on an annual basis as required by state law.

Description: <DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><DIV><P><SPAN>This dataset comprises polygons of census tracts for San Diego County. A census tract is a geographic region defined for the purpose of taking a census. Usually these coincide with the limits of cities, towns or other administrative areas and several tracts commonly exist within a county. In unincorporated areas, these are often arbitrary, except for coinciding with political lines. Census tracts are subdivided into block groups and census blocks.</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>The TIGER/Line Files are shapefiles and related database files (.dbf) that are an extract of selected geographic and cartographic information from the U.S. Census Bureau's Master Address File / Topologically Integrated Geographic Encoding and Referencing (MAF/TIGER) Database (MTDB). The MTDB represents a seamless national file with no overlaps or gaps between parts, however, each TIGER/Line File is designed to stand alone as an independent data set, or they can be combined to cover the entire nation. Census Blocks are statistical areas bounded on all sides by visible features, such as streets, roads, streams, and railroad tracks, and/or by nonvisible boundaries such as city, town, township, and county limits, and short line-of-sight extensions of streets and roads. Census blocks are relatively small in area; for example, a block in a city bounded by streets. However, census blocks in remote areas are often large and irregular and may even be many square miles in area. A common misunderstanding is that data users think census blocks are used geographically to build all other census geographic areas, rather all other census geographic areas are updated and then used as the primary constraints, along with roads and water features, to delineate the tabulation blocks. As a result, all 2010 Census blocks nest within every other 2010 Census geographic area, so that Census Bureau statistical data can be tabulated at the block level and aggregated up to the appropriate geographic areas. Census blocks cover all territory in the United States, Puerto Rico, and the Island Areas (American Samoa, Guam, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, and the U.S. Virgin Islands). Blocks are the smallest geographic areas for which the Census Bureau publishes data from the decennial census. A block may consist of one or more faces.</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>The Census Tracts dataset is based on the TIGER dataset and may be edited by SANDAG and further edited by SanGIS to reflect local boundary datasets. However, SanGIS edits the CENSUS_BLOCK layer and then derives the CENSUS_TRACT layer from the blocks.</SPAN></P></DIV></DIV></DIV>
