Description: This data set approximates the boundaries of United States Postal Service (USPS) ZIP code delivery areas within Prince George's County, Maryland. The polygon boundaries are based on actual delivery areas used by mail carriers and captured to follow parcel boundaries wherever possible, with some following street centerlines, political boundaries, and topographic features. Since neither the U.S. Postal Service nor the U.S. Census Bureau maintains official ZIP code boundary files or maps, the M-NCPPC created this file in order to be able to map data aggregated by ZIP code. Planning Department staff relied on the official USPS website database and regional post office staff to delineate areas within which letter carriers delivered mail with the same ZIP code. This data set includes all the standard type ZIP codes, as well as the unique ZIP codes for the NASA Goddard Space Center, the University of Maryland College Park, the Southern Maryland Processing and Distribution Center, and the Washington Bulk Mail Center. Where the P.O.-box-only type of ZIP code differs from the surrounding standard ZIP codes, they are captured symbolically at each post office as a circular shape ten feet in diameter.

Description: 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. County subdivisions are the primary divisions of counties and their equivalent entities for the reporting of Census Bureau data, and they include legally minor civil divisions (MCDs) and statistical census county divisions (CCDs), and unorganized territories. For the 2020 Census, the legal MCDs are the primary governmental and/or administrative divisions of counties in 29 States and Puerto Rico; Tennessee changed from having CCDs for Census 2000 to having MCDs for the 2010 Census. In MCD States where no MCD exists or is not defined, the Census Bureau creates statistical unorganized territories to complete coverage. The entire area of the United States, Puerto Rico, and the Island Areas is covered by county subdivisions. The boundaries of all 2020 Census legal MCDs are as of January 1, 2010 as reported through the Census Bureau's Boundary and Annexation Survey (BAS). For the 2020 Census, CCDs or their equivalents are delineated in 21 States. The boundaries of all 2020 Census statistical CCDs were delineated as part of the Census Bureau's Participant Statistical Areas Program (PSAP).

Description: Floodplain delineation is based on the watershed studies using ultimate land-use conditions and therefore usually extends beyond the FEMA floodplain which is based on existing land-use conditions. The data covers studies from Beaverdam creek, Anacostia, Henson, Oxon, Piscataway, and Charles and the studies were either conducted by or for the Storm Water Management Technical Group, originally a multi-agency technical group (doing hydrologic and hydraulic watershed studies). Watershed studies for Tinkers and Western using ultimate landuse but have never been converted to a digital format. Salman (DPIE) compares floodplains (FEMA , SWMTG or other private study) and determines which one is higher and therefore governs which becomes the regulatory floodplain. This can vary within a watershed, for any specific case, the final regulatory floodplain determination lies with DPIE. For further information, please contact Salman Babar (subabar@co.pg.md.us) at Prince George's County Department of Permitting, Inspections and Enforcement (DPIE) in the Site/Road Review Division (301-636-2060).

Description: This watershed data was acquired from Prince George's County Department of the Environmental (DOE). The boundaries were originally developed by a contractor working DOE as part of the GIS based Watershed Planning System (WPS) prior to 2001. The WPS project was developed to quickly assess watershed characteristics and the potential impact of certain pollutants. The Prince George's County Planning Department does not have the authority to release this data. Please contact the authoritative source for more information and to acquire the data.
Description: This file is a statewide digital watershed file. It was created primarily for state and federal agency use. The watersheds define Strahler (Strahler 1952 p. 1120) third order stream drainage by contours on U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) 7.5 minute quadrangle map sheets. Some watersheds drainage areas were defined for streams less than third order and some large area watershed were split to maintain a maximum size of 15,000 acres. The watershed boundaries in this file were developed in a joint state and federal effort to create a consistent watershed file for use by all government agencies with an interest in Maryland's watersheds. The U.S. Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) redefined the third order watersheds creating the HUA14 file. This file contains all of the HUA14 watersheds and some added watersheds to maintain water quality sampling sites. It was also used to create the Maryland Sub-Watershed file. The Prince George's County Planning Department does not have the authority to release this data. Please contact the authoritative source for more information and to acquire the data.
Copyright Text: The original eight digit watershed file was created in 1991 from Maryland Department of the Environment (MDE) hardcopy watershed maps. The Maryland Office of Planning (OP) created that digital file by contracting with Daft, McCune and Walker to digitize third order stream watersheds. The U.S. Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) produced the Hydrological Unit Code watershed file HUA14 using the OP file as a base map and redefining watersheds. NCRS field offices verified the watershed boundaries. The Maryland Department of Housing and Community Development Maryland Historic Trust (MHT) provided scanned US Geological Survey (USGS) 7.5 minute quadrangle map sheets to be used as a base map for corrections. The Department of Natural Resources (DNR) corrected the watershed boundaries to the scanned USGS 7.5 minute quadrangle map sheets in cooperation with NRCS. The State political boundary file from Maryland State Highway Administration's (SHA) GRID map series was merged into the file replacing the existing state line. The merge and watershed corrections were completed by DNR.

Description: This data set displays some land uses and/or structures in existence that do not meet the current requirements of the Zoning Ordinance. These uses/structures are termed non-conforming. This has occurred in a variety of ways. In some cases, a land use was established prior to the initial zoning of the property. In other cases, a use was once permitted in a zone but has subsequently been disallowed or allowed only by a special exception. Also, there are some structures that were originally built according to all of the parking, setback, sign, etc. requirements of the ordinance but no longer meet these requirements because of a subsequent change in the regulations. The non-conforming uses and structures are considered to be "grandfathered" and allowed to remain as long as the use has never ceased for a period no longer than 180 days. In certain circumstances, uses may be required to be recertified. Any alteration, enlargement, extension or reconstruction of a non-conforming use requires approval of a special exception.

Notice of a vacation hearing is posted on the property and the Planning Board's action is sent to the County Land Records and the State Department of Assessment and Taxation. See Section 24-3406 of the New Ordinance.
Description: This data set displays the location of the properties exempted from the requirements of the Woodland Consrvation Ordinacne due to having been issued a Numbered Exemption. See the Landscape Manial Section 1.3.
Description: This data set displays a change to a conventional zone by the District Council. The District Council must determine that there has either been a substantial change in the character of the neighborhood or that a mistake was made either in the original zoning or the most recent sectional map amendment. The change or mistake finding does not apply to floating zones. Approval of a floating zone depends upon demonstrating conformance to required findings for approval of that zone as stipulated in the Zoning Ordinance. See Section 27-3601 of the New Ordinance.
Description: The Aviation Policy Areas are intended to establish a standard of safety and compatibility for the occupants of land in the Prince George's County and are defined in CB-51-2002. These standards benefit existing airports, area residents, future residents, nearby businesses, pilots, and airports operators. The purpose of the Aviation Policy Areas is to provide special regulations for the development of land which may be affected by operations at airports in order to encourage compatible land use around airports, mitigate nuisances and hazards associated with airport operations, and to protect people and structures in critical areas surrounding airports.
Description: This data layer was created by Prince George's Planning staff copying and updating existing 1988 CBCA annotation. The layer contains labels for the new critical area boundary and corresponding designations derived from shoreline and wetlands digitized from 2007/08 aerial imagery and CIR. A 1000' buffer of the shorline and wetlands generated the proposed critical area boundary. Critical area designations (IDA, LDA, RCA, - Prince George's Planning changed the designations to I-D-O, L-D-O, and R-C-O to correspond with local zoning values) were pulled from the current designation layer and fit to the new boundary. Extensive discussions with County officials and Critical Area Commission resulted in a complete review of designations. Planning Department staff edits: changed designation types to correspond with Planning Department Zoning values; added fields for the legislation title and date enacting the area.
Copyright Text: The remapping of Maryland's Critical Area has been a collaboration of the Critical Area Commission, Maryland Department of Natural Resources, Prince George's County, and ESRGC at Salisbury University.
Description: Represents the locations of property where development is ensured to meet goals as specified in Division 3, Sec. 27-548.20 of the Zoning Ordinance, Subtitle 27, that relate to encouraging innovative design solutions; utilization of approved or amended design standards; the promotion of an appropriate mix of land uses; encouraging compact, compatible development that enhances the character of an area; the preservation of character-defining features within a community; encouraged pedestrian activity, and the promotion of economic vitality and investment. The locations are represented as an overlay zone superimposed by a Sectional Map Amendment (SMA) over other Classes of Zones in a designated development district, and may modify development requirements within the underlying zones. Attributes of this featureclass are coded under the Field Names, and Values reflected in the table below. The layer was first implemented in GIS in November of 2000 after Adoption of the Addison Road Metro (ARM) Town Center and Vicinity SMA by CR-61-2000, on October 24, 2000. Data migration 2006-07, to ArcGIS 9.1 geodatabase and a SDE seamless Dev_District_Poly layer was created. The data was captured at a reference scale of 1:2400.
Description: Represents locations in Prince George's County, Maryland near Metro Stations intended to encourage intense land development in order to reduce automobile use and maximize transit ridership. The districts are also used to implement transit district development plans (TDDP) which establish development requirements for specific parcels of land in the area and for the entire district. The locations are represented as an overlay zone superimposed over underlying conventional zones in a designated area, and may modify certain requirements of the underlying zones. Attributes of this featureclass are coded under the Field Names, and Values reflected in the attribute table. The layer historically evolved as follows: - The earliest known was Adopted on April 17, 1989 for the New Carrollton Transit District Development Plan and captured on WSSC grid based TDOZ half sheet Mylars at 1:2400 scale. - All overlay layers were captured in GIS together as one Countywide Layer in ArcInfo in 1997 by CENTECH Group Inc. with subsequent amendments incorporated. - In November of 2000 all Overlay layers were stripped out into their own countywide layers due to the complexity of attributing the increasing number of overlapping features due to new overlay layers being implemented. - Data migration 2006-07, to ArcGIS 9.1 geodatabase and a SDE seamless Transit_District_Overlay_Poly layer was created. The data was captured at a reference scale of 1:2400.
Description: Represents locations by overlay zone, in Prince George's County, Maryland, approved for large-scaled, planned and complete community development and includes the provision of a procedure for addressing future development and use of land in the zone. The features of this featureclass were extracted from the zoning layer as part of the migration to ArcGIS 9.1 Geodatabase in 2006-07, and now exist in separate featureclasses for their POLY, LINE, and ANNO features. This feature is usually superimposed over underlying zones in the areas designated for its use. Attributes of this featureclass are coded under the Field Name "CLASS", and theonly valid entry value to this field is "R-P-C". The historic lineage for the layer is: The Zoning Map of the Maryland-Washington Regional District in Prince George's County, Maryland dated November 29, 1949, with subsequent amendments manually drafted to 1:2400 scale WSSC grid based half sheet Mylars as annotations. WSSC grid based half sheets captured in GIS as whole sheets at 1:2400 scale in an ArcInfo library, in 1997 by CENTECH Group Inc., with the zoning layer as a second polygon attribute item named Zoning2 which was coded to "R-P-C". Subsequent amendments were incorporated. Data migration 2006-07, to ArcGIS 9.1 geodatabase and a SDE seamless Res_Planned_Community_Poly layer with subsequent amendments was created by extracting those features from the previous zoning layer. The data was captured at a reference scale of 1:2400.
Description: Neighborhood Conservation Overlay (NCO) Zones are intended to protect and preserve the unique development features and character of established neighborhoods and to promote new development that is compatible with existing neighborhood character. May amend or replace Zoning Ordinance development standards and/or zone standards for new development and expansion of existing structures to achieve the goals of the specific NCO Zone that has been established for a community.There are two NCO zones established in the County: The “Greenbelt Neighborhood Conservation Overlay” and the “Mount Rainier Neighborhood Conservation Overlay".The boundary of the “Greenbelt Neighborhood Conservation Overlay” Is based on the R-P-C zoning in Greenbelt as of June, 2019. The boundary of the “The “Mount Rainier Neighborhood Conservation Overlay” is based on the existing SF residential zoning within the Mount Rainier city limits as of June, 2019. The data was captured at a reference scale of 1:2400.This feature data was approved in CR-136-2021 and became effective April 1, 2022.
Description: On November 15, 2016, the Military Installation Overlay (M-I-O) was approved by the District Council (CR-97-2016) and defined the Height Limit Areas for the M-I-O. These geographies were originally developed for the Air Installation Compatible Use Zone Study (AICUZ) (2007). The M-I-O designated five areas of the AICUZ Runway Airspace Imaginary Surfaces as the M-I-O Height Limit Areas: A - Primary Surface for both runways; B - Approach/Departure Clearance (50:1) north and south ends; D - Inner Horizontal Surface for both runways; E - Conical Surface (20:1) for both runways; G - Transitional Surface (7:1) for both runways. The definition/description of Runway Airspace Imaginary Surfaces is from the Air Installation Compatible Use Zone Study, Andrews Air Force Base, Maryland, December 2007, p.4-1 to 4-4. Runway airspace imaginary surfaces, in graphical form, are the result of the application of obstruction height criteria to Andrews AFB. Imaginary surfaces are surfaces in space around airfields in relation to runways. The surfaces are designed to define the obstacle-free airspace at and around the airfield. Refer to Unified Facilities Criteria (UFC) 3-260-01, Airfield and Heliport Planning and Design (http://www.wbdg.org/ccb/DOD/UFC/ufc_3_260_01.pdf), for a more complete description of runway airspace imaginary surfaces for Class B runways.
Description: This was created based on the digitized noise contours as found in the 2007 Air Installation Compatible Use Zone (AICUZ) Study for Joint Base Andrews Naval Air Facility Washington. The associated attributes were entered and the zones used to identify the noise impacts associated with development proposed in the vicinity of Joint Base Andrews Naval Air Facility Washington. On November 15, 2016, the Military Installation Overlay was approved by the District Council (CR-97-2016) which created the Noise Intensity Zone and High Noise Intensity Zone. The two zones were based on the AICUZ noise contours. The Noise Intensity Zone contain the areas effected by noise in the 60 dB to 74 dB range. The High Noise Intensity Zone contains the areas effected by noise 75 dB or higher surrounding Joint Base Andrews.

Description: This was created based on a description of the accident potential zone in the 1993 Air Installation Compatible Use Zone (AICUZ) Study for Joint Base Andrews Naval Air Facility Washington (formerly Andrews Air Force Base). The boundaries of each zone was entered using ARC/INFO COGO. The associated attributes were added and the zones used to identify the potential for accidents as a guide for the intensity of development permitted based on the AICUZ Study. On November 15, 2016, the Military Installation Overlay was approved by the District Council (CR-97-2016) which includes but did not change the geographies for the accident potential zones.

Description: Represents permitted uses made by special grant that do not conform with the specific provisions of certain Classes of Zone as cited in the Zoning Ordinance, Subtitle 27, for property located in Prince George's County, Maryland. These special permissions are granted by the Zoning Hearing Examiner, or by the District Council, should cases be remanded to them on the appeal of persons of record, in accordance with Part 4. Special Exceptions of the Zoning Ordinance. Case numbers are attributed to this featureclass under the Field Name "CASE_NUMBER", using the same format and number (e.g. SE-1234) as was assigned to the originating application by M-NCPPC's Development Review Division. A single polygon of this featureclass is attributed with one case number, though features may occupy the same property to identical extents, and may overlap or intersect other features in this featureclass; but in each case, a single polygon shall be attributed with one case number. The historic lineage for the layer is: - The Zoning Map of the Maryland-Washington Regional District in Prince George's County, Maryland dated November 29, 1949, with subsequent amendments manually drafted to 1:2400 scale WSSC grid based half sheet Mylars. - Features were extracted from WSSC grid based half sheets Mylars, and captured in GIS as a County-wide layer best viewed and edited at 1:2400 scale along with zoning held in an ArcInfo library. The data was captured in 1997 by CENTECH Group Inc. with subsequent amendments incorporated. - Data migration 2006-07, to ArcGIS 9.1 geodatabase and a SDE seamless Special_Exception_Poly layer with subsequent amendments incorporated. The data was captured at a reference scale of 1:2400.
Description: The Zoning_Py feature class is based on the “Prince George’s County Countywide Sectional Map Amendment (CMA); CR-27-2019 (DR-2), Attachment C: Approved Guide to New Zones(“the Guide”) approved on 7/23/2019, applied to the County’s Existing Zoning Map as of June 1, 2019. Classes of Zones are attributed to this feature class under the Field Name "CLASS", using the same abbreviated format as appears in the adopted new Zoning Ordinance, section 27-4102. This feature class is comprised of six subtypes: (“Rural and Agricultural Base Zones”; “Residential Base Zones”; “Nonresidential Base Zones”; “Transit‐Oriented/Activity Center Base Zones”; “Other Base Zones”; and “Planned Development Zones”. The Subtypes are attributed to the feature class under the Field Name "ZONE_TYPE" using the same abbreviated format as appears in the new Zoning Ordinance, Sec. 27-4103. Zoning boundaries at rights-of-way are graphically delineated to follow property boundaries that run along those rights-of-way; however, boundaries of zones should always, unless explicitly cited, be interpreted to follow the centerlines of those rights-of-way. Polygons of this featureclass represent regions of like zoning unbroken by parcel boundaries. A number of features are have their CLASS set to "Not Assigned" and are typically the result of processing issues derived from the older zoning data, certain rights-of-way, or properties where the account information is currently unknown. Please contact M-NCPPC with any questions or additional information you may have.This feature data was approved in CR-136-2021 and became effective April 1, 2022.
Description: Represents the locations of legally determined permitted uses for properties located in Prince George's County, whose zoning is governed by the decisions of the County Council, sitting as the District Council as was delegated to them by the State of Maryland. Uses are determined by Classes of Zone as cited in the Zoning Ordinance of Prince George's County, Maryland, Subtitle 27. Zoning boundaries at rights-of-way are graphically delineated to follow property boundaries that run along those rights-of-way; however, in accordance with Zoning Ordinance, Sec. 27-111. Boundaries of zones, permitted uses should always, unless explicitly cited, be interpreted to follow the centerlines of those rights-of-way. Polygons of this featureclass represent regions of like zoning unbroken by parcel boundaries. Varying uses and conditions between adjacent properties with like zones are distinguished by annotations found in the "Zoning_Anno" featureclass and by the boundaries delineated in the "Zoning_Line" featureclass. Classes of Zone are attributed to this featureclass under the Field Name "CLASS", using the same abbreviated format as appears in the Zoning Ordinance, Sec. 27-109, except in the case of the "M-U-TC" zone which due to set field widths available at the time of its original creation was coded to "MU-TC"instead. The featureclass is comprised of six Subtypes each having a single domain that is set to the Default Value and contains the number of Classes as reflected in the table below. The Subtypes are attributed to the featureclass under the Field Name "ZONE_TYPE" using the same abbreviated format as appears in the Zoning Ordinance, Sec. 27-109. SUBTYPE = ZONE_TYPE DOMAIN DEFAULT VALUE # of Classes Residential dResidential Not Assigned 17 Commercial dCommercial C-A 11 Industrial dIndustrial I-3 5 Comprehensive Design dCompDesign R-L 9 *Planned Community dPlannedComm R-M-H *1 Mixed Use dMixedUse M-X-C 4 See http://www.mncppc.org/806/Guide-to-Zoning-Categories, Subtitle 27 - https://library.municode.com/md/prince_george's_county/codes/code_of_ordinances?nodeId=PTIITI17PULOLAPRGECOMA_SUBTITLE_27ZO. As part of the migration to ArcGIS in 2006-07 the "R-P-C" (Planned Community Zone) which is one of the zones cited under Classes of Zones, Sec. 27-109 of the Zoning Ordinance, was extracted out of zoning and its features were captured separately, and can now be found in the Res_Planned_Community featureclasses for POLY, LINE and ANNO under the Zoning featuredataset. *The R-P-C Zone by definition of the Zoning Ordinance (Subtitle 27) is classified under the category Planned Community; however it is now handled for GIS purposes only in new separate featureclasses for the POLY, LINE and ANNO features related to this Class of Zoning. The historic lineage for the layer is: - The Zoning Map of the Maryland-Washington Regional District in Prince George's County, Maryland dated November 29, 1949, with subsequent amendments manually drafted to 1:2400 scale WSSC grid based half sheet Mylars. - WSSC grid based half sheets captured in GIS as whole sheets at 1:2400 scale in an ArcInfo library in 1997 by CENTECH Group Inc. with subsequent amendments incorporated. - Data migration 2006-07, to ArcGIS 9.1 geodatabase and a SDE seamless Zoning_Poly layer with subsequent amendments incorporated.
