Description: This data inventory is a compilation of different datasets and is used to generalize the spatial boundary of Middlesex County Parks. It is not used for survey purposes and should not be copied for survey purposes. The spatial boundaries represented in this dataset are not used for legal purposes and should not be copied for legal purposes. The spatial boundaries are generalized from OGIS Statewide Parcels Normalization Project, 2010 and Mod4 Parcel layer. They do not represent actual tax map boundaries and should not be copied as such. The accuracy of this data is relative but not affirmative. Management of this data inventory is done by Middlesex County Office of Parks and Recreation and current as of 2016. This information will be updated when necessary.

Description: This layer represents the National Telecommunications Information Administration (NTIA) State Broadband Data Development Program (SBDD) area of broadband availability. Area of broadband availability refers to those individual US Census Blocks, less than 2 square miles, where each facilities-based provider of broadband service can provide broadband services of minimal characteristics within 7 - 10 business days. For each area (e.g. census block less than 2 square miles) the provider name and technology they provide there are represented. In addition, advertised and typical upload and download speeds are often reported at these levels. If a provider offers availability to any location within a census block less than 2 square miles, the entire block is deemed available under this effort. For this purpose, ''broadband service'' is the provision, on either a commercial or non-commercial basis, of data transmission technology that provides two-way data transmission to and from the Internet with advertised speeds of at least 768 kilobits per second (kbps) downstream and greater than 200 kbps upstream to end users, or providing sufficient capacity in a middle mile project to support the provision of broadband service to end-users within the project area. For this purpose, an ''end user'' of broadband service is a residential or business party, institution or State or local government entity that may use broadband service for its own purposes and that does not resell such service to other entities or incorporate such service into retail Internet-access services. Internet Service Providers (ISPs) are not ''end users'' for this purpose. An entity is a ''facilities based'' provider of broadband service connections to end user locations if any of the following conditions are met: (1) It owns the portion of the physical facility that terminates at the end user location; (2) it obtains unbundled network elements (UNEs), special access lines, or other leased facilities that terminate at the end user location and provisions/equips them as broadband; or (3) it provisions/equips a broadband wireless channel to the end user location over licensed or unlicensed spectrum. For this purpose, ''broadband service'' is ''available'' at an address if the provider does, or could, within a typical service interval (7 to 10 business days) without an extraordinary commitment of resources, provision two-way data transmission to and from the Internet with advertised speeds of at least 768 kilobits per second (kbps) downstream and greater than 200 kbps upstream to end-users at that address.

Description: The layer was initially created using heads up zoning techniques. MCOP staff attempted to interpret paper zoning maps from the municipalities, using NJDOT road layers, aerial photography, and the NJDEP stream midpoint layers as guides. In March and April 2012 the county neared completion of the countywide tax parcel layer, and so a systematic overhaul of the zoning layer was undertaken to substantially improve the accuracy of the linework. Corecting the lines was undertaken by attempting to snap the old linework to the parcel layer using a cut and merge technique. In addition to the above efforts, MCOP staff has attempted to maintain the layer in an ongoing fashion to reflect densities represented in new zoning ordinances and redevelopment areas. This has required some interpretation of plans on the part of staff members.
