Parcel

This dataset is designed to represent and identify the property boundaries in Lexington-Fayette County. The original dataset was created in late 1990's by a third party that converted existing paper maps to digital GIS files. The data has since been updated by georeferencing recorded plats for corrections and new additions. In cases where the plats do not appear accurate, aerial photos are utilized in attempt to properly locate the property lines. The only except for this process are changes to highway right-of-way in which calls are run from deeds. The geometry of this data is not of survey quality and should not be used for survey purposes. The data is intended for general reference purposes only. As part of the basemap data layers, the parcel boundary map layer is an integral part of the Lexington Fayette-Urban County Government Geographic Information System. Basemap data layers are accessed by personnel in most LFUCG divisions for basic applications such as viewing, querying, and map output production. More advanced user applications may focus on thematic mapping, summarization of data by geography, or planning purposes (including defining boundaries, managing assets and facilities, integrating attribute databases with geographic features, spatial analysis, and presentation output).本数据集旨在表征并识别列克星敦-费耶特县（Lexington-Fayette County）的地产地界。原始数据集于20世纪90年代末由第三方机构创建，该机构将现有纸质地图转换为数字地理信息系统（Geographic Information System, 缩写GIS）文件。此后，相关人员通过对已备案的地块图进行地理配准以修正数据并补充新增内容，完成了该数据集的更新。若地块图存在不准确的情况，则会利用航空影像尝试精准定位地产边界。本流程的唯一例外情形为公路用地范围的变更，此类变更需依据契约文书调取相关信息进行处理。本数据集的几何精度未达到测绘质量标准，不得用于测绘工作，仅可用于通用参考场景。作为底图数据图层的组成部分，地块边界地图图层是列克星敦-费耶特城市县政府（Lexington Fayette-Urban County Government, 缩写LFUCG）地理信息系统不可或缺的组成部分。LFUCG多数部门的工作人员可调用该底图数据图层，用于查看、查询及制作地图输出等基础应用场景。更高级的用户应用可聚焦于专题制图、按地理区域汇总数据，或用于规划用途（包括界定边界、管理资产与设施、将属性数据库与地理要素集成、开展空间分析以及生成演示输出成果）。
