Description: The planimetric dataset includes 10 different map layers digitized directly from York County's orthophotography. The road centerline represents the line running down the center of the road right of way. The layer was originally digitized as center of pavement from the 1:1200 scale mylar orthophotography flown in February 1990. Original digitizing took place between 10/92 and 12/94, as part of the planimetric digitizing project. Updates were made by digitizing from subdivision plats put to record after November 1993, and is updated each time a plat with a new road goes to record. The location of the road centerlines are checked and adjusted against the digital orthophotography as part of the County's biannual update of planimetrics.
Description: The planimetric dataset includes 10 different map layers digitized directly from York County's orthophotography. The railroads layer represents the location of all railroads in York County.

Description: The athletic layer contains outlines of County-owned or maintained athletic fields, including baseball, softball, football, soccer fields, tennis and basketball courts. Each polygon is coded with a ptype (type of field) and gtype (grass type). This layer was created for York County's Department of General Services in order to help define and categorize these fields for possible out-sourcing of the maintenance.
Description: The planimetric dataset includes 10 different map layers digitized directly from York County's orthophotography. The pools layer represents the outline of private and public swimming pools. They layer was originally digitized from the 1:1200 mylar orthophotography flown in February 1990. It was updated in 1995, 1997, 1999, 2002, 2005, 2007 and 2009 with digital orthophotos using heads-up digitizing. The pools layer will be updated as new digital imagery is acquired.
Description: "Peninsula Hydrography". This layer began life as just the major waterbodies surrounding the Peninsula, but grew to encompass all waterways out to the 50-mile radius of the Surry Nuclear Power Plant.
Description: The Landmark layer consists of large area landmarks for the Hampton Roads region. It includes military installations, National Parks, and local (York County) parks.
