| Development of Lincoln County's Geographic Information System (GIS) began in 2002 to provide spatial integration to county records for easier accessibility. The Geographic Information System uses computer technology to correlate a location or area with county records on a map or within a computer viewer to give a better understanding of its makeup and relationships. Our GIS includes parcels, roads, land use, flood plains, aquifer materials, water resources, and public well sites. Boundaries of municipalities, school districts, fire districts, voting precincts and legislative districts along with other features such as topography, railroads, wetlands, soil types, and aerial photography are also utilized in the GIS. The GIS involves operations which can combine these spatial datasets to display relationships and provide information in the form of dynamic maps, reports and interfaces. GIS technology provides a valuable tool to assist in implementing the comprehensive plan, administer the zoning ordinance, integrate land records and assist emergency personnel. |
