This GIS datalayer is based upon the NH Conserved/Public Lands attribute model published by NH Granit. In 2014 NRPC began with that statewide dataset and refined the geography of those parcels to coincide with the NRPC parcel dataset. From there, NRPC mapped approximately 400 additional conserved land trascts based upon input from the area's conservaton commissions. Using the Hillsborough County Registry of Deeds online databse, the NRPC conducted extensive deed research to determine key attributes such as primary protection mechanism(s), managing agency, etc.
NRPC publishes these data on maps and in its flagship online viewer. There is no systematic process for maintenance; rather, corrections and edits are made as they are reported by stakeholders.

It is appropriate for mapping and planning purposes; it should not be utilized where legal and surveyed boundaries are required. NRPC does not make any warranty, representation, or guarantee as to the content, sequence, accuracy, timeliness, or completeness of this information. The user should not rely on these data without verifying its accuracy independently.

The NPRC parcel datalayer contains property (land lot) boundaries and select attributes about each property. NRPC compiled this information over many years from various sources including original tax maps that were subsequently georeferenced and digitized by the Commission. As such, the data is suitable for tax assessment purposes but is not survey-quality.
The datalayer contains discrete, non-overlapping polygons. Duplicate parcel identifiers exists for lots that are split but have common ownership. Public rights-of-way and water bodies are included as polygons rather than null voids. Parcels are edge-matched along town borders. Along the MA state border parcels conform to the Towns from Survey Points datalayer available from MassGIS; in most other cases the parcels are matched to the 1:24K town border datalayer (pba) derived from USGS topo maps and available from NH Granit. In cases where GIS parcel information did not conform to the USGS town boundary linework, NRPC interpreted tax map geography and dimensions and mapped parcel boundaries accordingly.Over time, NRPC has maintained this database by monitoring the Hillsborough County Registry of Deeds online database for recordings related to subdivisions, lot mergers, and lot line revisions. NRPC has maintained a very high match rate between the parcel database and corresponding assessing records. In some cases, the NRPC edit may precede the corresponding update on the municipal property record card. For this reason, site address or land use classification may not be exactly consistent with the assessing record.
Disclaimer: These data are an NRPC interpretation of original source maps and are appropriate for planning purposes; they should not be utilized where legal and surveyed property boundaries are required. The most current property information is on file within each respective City or Town. With the exception of parcels in Amherst, Mont Vernon, Litchfield, Hollis, Lyndeborough, Pelham, and Wilton, these data do not constitute official municipal record. Edges between towns in this dataset are not authoritative delineations of town boundaries.NRPC and its member communities, respectively, do not make any warranty, representation, or guarantee as to the content, sequence, accuracy, timeliness, or completeness of any of the information provide herein.
