Description:
Abstract:
The San Joaquin Valley Protected Open Space Database is a GIS inventory of lands protected primarily for open space values by an ownership interest of a governmental agency, non-profit, or private organization. It tracks information on who owns these lands, the type of ownership (fee or easement), primary uses, and levels of public access. The database was developed by GreenInfo Network through funding provided by the Great Places Program of the Information Center for the Environment (ICE), University of California at Davis.
Purpose:
The San Joaquin Valley Protected Open Space Database is intended to serve as a local and regional data source on current protected lands. Appropriate uses include open space and conservation planning, land management, land use analysis, and outreach and education.

Attribute_Accuracy_Report:
No formal accuracy assessment has been conducted of the attributes in this database. Attributes were compiled from a variety of sources and their accuracy is therefore dependent on the accuracy of the source data.
Logical_Consistency_Report: All polygons are closed.
Completeness_Report:
This dataset was compiled from best available sources on land ownership and status, ranging from agency/organization of ownership to locale. While every attempt was made to insure the data is accurate and complete, there are inherent variabilities and gaps due to the nature of the source data.

Reference GIS data layer for protected open space areas adjacent to the SF Bay Area.

Process_Description:
Data was obtained from contributing agencies/organizations and reprojected (if necessary) or projection defined. This includes data layers on parks and protected areas as well as county-wide parcel boundary data.

Process_Step:
Process_Description:
By county, each USGS 7.5 minute quad was analyzed for protected open space areas based on (1) available data, (2) parcel ownership data, if available, (3) visual reference documents such as aerial images, Google Maps, Thomas Brothers Guides, and other hardcopy maps. Once protected open space areas were identified, they were verified by one or more additional sources. Parcels encompassing the protected open space areas were then selected, using spatial selection or visually. Parcels were then verified, as possible, by ownership records. If parcels were unavailable, the boundary from the digital data source was used, or the area was digitized based on Public Land Survey (PLS) lines. All boundaries were compiled into a single polygon shapefile (the interim Holdings shapefile). Attributes were transferred from source data layers where possible.

Process_Step:
Process_Description:
The interim Holdings shapefile was then examined for shape conflicts, such as polygon overlaps and edge-matching, and adjusted as needed to resolve conflicts. Generally parcel boundaries were deferred to as most accurate. Where parcels conflicted (e.g., on county edges), polygons shapes were examined for consistency with other data layers and reference maps/imagery, and the more consistent parcel layer was accepted as true. Final shapes were split by county, if necessary.

Once the interim Holdings shapefile was clean and consistent internally, the attributes were examined, researched (from agency/organization information or online), and populated where possible. A separate log of owner agency/organization information was maintained in table format.

Process_Description:
Summary tables were generated from the interim Holdings shapefile, including summary lists of owner entities (Agency) and Units (see metadata for Units feature class for more on Units). Units were defined as unique combinations of ownership agency, park name, fee/easement, access, and county. The Agency table was compared to the active log, and attribute information was transferred/populated where possible. Agency and Unit unique ID numbers were sequentially assigned to individual records in each list, and interim Agency and Unit tables were created.

The interim Holdings shapefile, interim Units shapefile, and Agency table were all brought into a new geodatabase. Lookup tables for agency type, ownership type, access, use, cities, and counties were created. Relationships between the two feature classes (Holdings and Units) and associated tables were defined. Field aliases and domains were also defined.
