Description:
Abstract:
This data set is a graphical representation of the Coastal Areas Facilities Review Act (CAFRA) boundary, which legislates land use within the coastal area. This boundary was dissolved from the Coastal Planning Areas in New Jersey data set.
Purpose:
Map the legislative boundary of the Coastal Area under the jurisdiction of the Coastal Area Facilities Review Act (CAFRA), N.J.S.A. 13:19-1 et seq (as amended to July 19, 1993).
Supplemental_Information:
This data was dissolved from the Coastal Planning Areas in New Jersey data set. Additional information on Coastal Planning Areas and processes used to generate the data can be found in the metadata available at:

Data_Quality_Information:
Attribute_Accuracy:
Attribute_Accuracy_Report:
Coastal Planning Area attribute values were removed as just the CAFRA boundary is being shown. No other tests were conducted for accuracy of the attributes.
Logical_Consistency_Report:
The topological accuracy for this data set originally refers back to the State Planning areas (splan2) where the Coastal Planning Areas were dissolved from. The splan2 polygons were labeled. There are no duplicate arcs and no dangling nodes. The ArcInfo commands "labelerrors," "nodeerrors," and "intersecterr" were used to verify topological integrity
Completeness_Report:
Coastal Planning Areas data was DISSOLVED to show only the polygon boundary. Most attribute fields were also removed.
Positional_Accuracy:
Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy:
Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report:
Scale of the original mapping was 1:24000. Feature locations should generally meet National Map Accuracy Standards for that scale, which means that boundaries are within 40 feet of their intended locations; however accuracy testing has not been done.
Vertical_Positional_Accuracy:
Vertical_Positional_Accuracy_Report: None

Process_Description:
Office of Smart Growth Process (Taken from Planning Areas of the NJ State Development and Redevelopment Plan, adopted March 1, 2001 metadata) - "Through the Cross - acceptance process, a series of 1:24,000 film USGS quadrangle registered maps defining the Planning Area boundaries of the New Jersey State Development and Redevelopment Plan was created. Locations of the boundaries were originally refined using hardcopy orthophotoquads as produced by Markhurd Corp (1986). Later boundaries were digitized using digital orthophotos at 3 - meter resolution (1991), and latter still, using 1995 digital orthophotos at 1 - meter resolution from USGS." NJDEP Process - Planning area boundaries for the CAFRA area were clipped from the splan2 shapefile of the 2001 State Plan Policy Map. NJDEP municipality/ county shapefile was intersected into the Coastal Planning Area shapefile. This shapefile then was recalculated to update perimeter, area and acre values. Attributes were modified to reflect the application of the planning areas in the Coastal Zone Management rules, N.J.A.C. 7:7E.

Ordering_Instructions:
All available NJDEP public GIS data can be downloaded for free. Some data shown in NJGeoWeb application may not yet be available for download due to various data or distribution issues. Please email gisnet@dep.nj.gov with any data distribution questions.
Custom_Order_Process:
The NJDEP may distribute GIS data in a variety of formats, such as the ESRI shapefile and/or various versions of the file geodatabase format. The data also may be available for viewing on various profiles of the NJ GeoWeb online mapping application.
Note: Some older NJDEP data may not contain .prj files due to distribution procedures at that time. If download does not contain a .prj, please download from:
https://www.nj.gov/dep/gis/njsp83.zip
Please rename .prj to the name of the downloadable filename. (for example: If Head of Tides filename is HOT.shp, please rename .prj to HOT.prj). This allows ESRI software to recognize the projection information.
