- Abstract
- The active tax parcel boundaries for all of Tompkins County for a given year. The boundaries represent the one-to-one match with the parcel boundaries shown on the final paper maps for a given year.
- Purpose
- The parcel boundaries represent legal descriptions of property ownership, as recorded in various public documents in the Tompkins County Clerk's Office.
- Supplemental Information
- Properties that are tracked by an account number (utilities, railroads, etc.) may be shown as several separate tax parcel boundaries, with different tax map print keys, even though they are tracked in the Real Property Services (RPS) database under the same account number and treated as one single parcel. The parcel region will show these account-number properties as one tax parcel boundary, while the printkey region will show each separate tax parcel boundary that is a part of the account number. As of 2000, the tax parcel boundaries have not been edge-matched by municipality, except for Villages within their respective Town. This shapefile data set is derived from the printkey region of all tax parcel data sets in Tompkins County and is maintained as a shapefile because it can be manipulated much faster in ArcView than an Arc/Info data set. All Individual Tompkins County Tax Parcels can be found in PDF Format: http://www.tompkins-co.org/gis/maps/tax.html In addition, New York State GIS also has Tompkins County Tax Parcel Information: http://www.nysgis.state.ny.us/repository/counties/tompkins.htm
- Temporal Extent
- Currentness Reference
- The data represents an entire tax year, which begins July 1st of the previous tax year and ends June 30th of the current tax year. (For example, taxparcels2000 would represent the 2000 tax year roll, from July 1, 1999 to June 30, 2000). The data is "published" each July 1st as a "frozen file" in conjunction with a "frozen file" for the Real Property Services (RPS) database.

- Other Citation Details
- Tompkins County ITS GIS Division is responsible for creating the extract and converting it to a format that is compatible with the County's GIS.
- Data Quality Information
- Attribute Accuracy Report
- See Entity and Attribute Information
- Logical Consistency Report
- The Printkey region from each municipality's tax map data set is appended into one County-wide data set. This data set's topology is then created using the CLEAN command, then converted to an ArcView shapefile. All error checking is done in the source data sets.
- Completeness Report
- Complete coverage for entire County.
- Horizontal Positional Accuracy Report
- Varies, depending on source of parcel boundary (survey, deed, aerial photo, raw conversion from paper maps). The accuracy of the data set is limited to the accuracy of the 1991 Tompkins County Planimetric Base Map series.

- Entity Type Label
- TAXPARCELS
- Entity Type Definition
- Polygons provide the basis for all other area layers (regions), which are produced from attributes of the polygons. The polygons are the source layer for information about the accuracy of the area boundaries.
