These data contains boundary information for the municipalities of Crawford County, PA. The data were created according to the Crawford County Planning Office\u2019s interpretation of maps researched and drawn by the County Planning Office in the late 1970s and 1980s, corroborated by official zoning maps. The GIS information is more precise than the print maps, which implies a false accuracy of the data. The boundaries are not surveyed, and the data are adjusted to fit with other County data already on file and changes to boundaries through court-ordered corrections or annexations from that time. The following rules were generally applied during digitization from the print maps to GIS: 1) Where boundary information was clearly represented as following a right-of-way edge, the edge was followed. 2) Where boundaries appeared to follow a right-of-way centerline or did not clearly follow a right-of-way edge, the boundaries were conformed to the GIS centerline and most often meet it at a perpendicular. Where right-of-ways appear with no existing GIS centerline, the centerline is estimated. 3) Where boundaries appear to cross roads at clear angles, the boundary line direction was retained and did not meet the road perpendicularly. 4) Where boundaries appeared to follow parcel lines, they were made to conform to parcel lines unless it would significantly distort the geometry or intended direction of the boundary line. Where boundary lines appeared to deliberately maintain a geometry, shape, or direction, the parcel lines were disregarded in favor of maintaining the boundary geometry. 5) Where boundaries appeared to clearly follow a water feature, the boundary was formed around what could be seen of that feature by 2014 PMAP orthographic photo-imagery if the feature did not also conform to a parcel boundary. For streams that form parcel boundaries, the centerline is estimated as a compromise between GIS parcel data and photo-imagery, unless egregious discrepancies lead either parcel data or photo imagry to be favored for practicality.<\/SPAN><\/P>
