Description: This GIS dataset represents all active fire stations that provide fire services to residents in North Carolina. This data is collected and maintained as a part of the 9S fire rating program by the North Carolina Office of State Fire Marshal which is a section of the North Carolina Department of Insurance. A “Fire Station” is defined in 11 NCAC 05A.0901 as a building for the housing of fire department apparatus and personnel. Under the same Administrative code, a “Fire Department” is defined as an organization established or organized under applicable State and local laws, for the purpose of limiting, reducing, or preventing damage or personal injury caused by fire or other emergency. This fire station point feature was established to inventory all the active stations that meet these requirements.

Description: The North Carolina State and County Boundary vector polygon data provides location information for North Carolina State and County Boundary lines derived from the best available survey and/or Geographic Information System (GIS) data. Sources for information are the North Carolina Geodetic Survey (NCGS), NC Department of Transportation (NCDOT), United States Geological Survey (USGS), and field surveys conducted by licensed surveyors in North Carolina and neighboring states that have been approved and recorded in their respective counties. North Carolina Geodetic Survey assists counties on a cooperative basis (NC General Statute 153A-18) in defining and monumenting the location of uncertain or disputed boundaries as established by law. Some counties have completed boundary surveys for at least a portion of their county boundary. However, the majority of county boundaries have not been surveyed and are represented by the best currently available data from GIS sources, including NCDOT county maps (which originally came from the USGS) and updated county parcel maps.

Description: <DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><DIV><P><SPAN>The North Carolina Natural Heritage Program's Natural Areas are terrestrial and aquatic areas that are of special biodiversity significance. A Natural Area's significance may be due to the presence of rare species, high-quality natural communities, important animal assemblages, or other ecological features, collectively known as “Elements” of biodiversity. The North Carolina Natural Heritage Program (NCNHP) identifies and inventories these areas, evaluates and assigns conservation priority ratings to the Natural Areas based on the biodiversity within them, and works with many partners to implement voluntary protection for them. The Natural Area boundaries are drawn by NCNHP staff, based on field surveys, and are ecological in nature. </SPAN></P><P><SPAN STYLE="font-weight:bold;">Many of the Natural Areas are on private land and are not open to the public. Written permission should be obtained from all appropriate landowners before visiting any of these sites</SPAN><SPAN>. </SPAN></P></DIV></DIV></DIV>

Description: <DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><DIV><P><SPAN>The North Carolina Natural Heritage Program's Managed Areas are primarily a collection of fee simple properties and easements where natural resource conservation is one of the primary management goals. It does include a number of properties and easements that are not primarily managed for conservation, but that are of conservation interest. This conservation interest ranges from properties and easements which support rare species and intact, high-quality natural communities to those that are open spaces in places where open space is scarce. Lands that are Dedicated Nature Preserves or Registered Heritage Areas are found in this data set. These data are the current equivalent of the Conservation Tax Credit Properties and Land Trust Conservation Properties data set and the Federal Lands in North Carolina data set. </SPAN></P><P><SPAN STYLE="font-weight:bold;">Inclusion of a Managed Area in this shapefile in no way implies that the area is open to the public.

Description: <DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><DIV><P><SPAN>This data set represents the extent, approximate location and type of wetlands and deepwater habitats in the United States and its Territories. These data delineate the areal extent of wetlands and surface waters as defined by Cowardin et al. (1979). The National Wetlands Inventory - Version 2, Surface Waters and Wetlands Inventory was derived by retaining the wetland and deepwater polygons that compose the NWI digital wetlands spatial data layer and reintroducing any linear wetland or surface water features that were orphaned from the original NWI hard copy maps by converting them to narrow polygonal features. Additionally, the data are supplemented with hydrography data, buffered to become polygonal features, as a secondary source for any single-line stream features not mapped by the NWI and to complete segmented connections. Wetland mapping conducted in WA, OR, CA, NV and ID after 2012 and most other projects mapped after 2015 were mapped to include all surface water features and are not derived data. The linear hydrography dataset used to derive Version 2 was the U.S. Geological Survey's National Hydrography Dataset (NHD). Specific information on the NHD version used to derive Version 2 and where Version 2 was mapped can be found in the 'comments' field of the Wetlands_Project_Metadata feature class. Certain wetland habitats are excluded from the National mapping program because of the limitations of aerial imagery as the primary data source used to detect wetlands. These habitats include seagrasses or submerged aquatic vegetation that are found in the intertidal and subtidal zones of estuaries and near shore coastal waters. Some deepwater reef communities (coral or tuberficid worm reefs) have also been excluded from the inventory. These habitats, because of their depth, go undetected by aerial imagery. By policy, the Service also excludes certain types of "farmed wetlands" as may be defined by the Food Security Act or that do not coincide with the Cowardin et al. definition. Contact the Service's Regional Wetland Coordinator for additional information on what types of farmed wetlands are included on wetland maps. This dataset should be used in conjunction with the Wetlands_Project_Metadata layer, which contains project specific wetlands mapping procedures and information on dates, scales and emulsion of imagery used to map the wetlands within specific project boundaries.</SPAN></P></DIV></DIV></DIV>
