Description:
These GIS files represent geographic boundaries for lands that are under the protection of NYS Agricultural District Law, administered by the New York State Department of Agriculture and Markets. The boundaries are derived from New York State Agricultural District, 1:24,000-scale, maps produced at county agencies. The district boundaries correspond to tax parcel data. District boundaries are joined into a file representing all of the Agricultural Districts within an entire county. Tax parcel detail is not included in this dataset. Road and utility rights-of-way are only included when they are delineated on the original 1:24,000 scale maps. The data files are in ESRI shapefile format.
