Abstract
This is the final deliverable for the Version 2 Statewide Parcel Map Database Project (V2). This feature class represents a comprehensive, spatially referenced collection of parcel geometries as recognized by local-level governments within the State of Wisconsin (the feature class is aggregated from county level and municipal-level data). See the V2 Project Homepage for more detail on the parameters for how data was prepared and submitted to this project: http://www.sco.wisc.edu/images/stories/publications/V2/Submission/. Schema documentation can be found within this feature class metadata and here: http://www.sco.wisc.edu/images/stories/publications/V2/V2_Wisconsin_Statewide_Parcels_Schema_Documentation.pdf. Change logand known issuescan be found here: http://www.sco.wisc.edu/images/stories/publications/V2/V2_Wisconsin_Statewide_Parcels_Change_Log.pdf.
Purpose
This layer is intended for reference and mapping purposes, and may be used for basic applications such as viewing, querying, and map output production, or to provide a basemap to support graphical overlays and analysis with other spatial data. [The digital parcel map was created primarily for overlaying with other digital layers created by Manitowoc Countyfor internal use. The parcel map is a representation of the geometry and topology of current tax parcels in Manitowoc County. This information is intended for cartographic use, general spatial analysis, and as a spatial index to land related information. They are not intended for legal, survey, or other related uses. The tax parcel map is not a substitute for the land ownership and interest descriptions contained in individual deeds.]
Supplemental Information

Description
[Parcel linework had been added to assessment maps using manual cartography as new parcel information was recorded. These paper maps were scanned and then georeferenced to Manitowoc County's PLSS grid. If possible, parcel boundaries were COGO'd into new parcel coverages using information found on the assessment maps or the scanned images were opened in the background so boundaries could be screen-digitized into the parcel coverages. Changes since 2002 were normally entered using COGO geometry. Dataset converted to a file geodatabase in 2009.]
