This point layer contains the tabulated survey results from a 1939 access survey at Shenandoah National Park highlighted as part of the "Segregation in Virginia's National Parks, 1916-1965" StoryMap. The survey sites were pulled from the associated Segregation in Virginia's National Parks, 1916-1965 (2022) historic resource study written by Dr. Erin Krutko Devlin of the University of Mary Washington (UMW) and commissioned by the National Park Service. Staff and students affiliated with UMW's Geography Department generated the original feature layers and maps which were subsequently edited by NPS staff.
This layer contains ONLY features within the six case study parks associated with the "Segregation in Virginia's National Parks, 1916-1965" StoryMap. The original layer contained all Virginia Building Footprints. Building footprints are polygon outlines of structures remotely rendered through digitizing of Virginia Base Mapping Program’s digital ortho-photogrammetry imagery, or digitizing of local government subdivision plats. VBMP building footprints are a collection of locally submitted data and as published from the Virginia Geographic Information Network carry no addressing, nor is there any ownership, resident information, or construction specifications provided. VBMP building footprints are not assumed to be of survey quality and carry no guarantees as to accuracy. Even with these restrictions building outlines are a valuable resource for emergency response operations and for community planning. Currently the Virginia Base Mapping Program’s collection of building footprints consists of over 4 million structures. Data input from localities are processed and published quarterly. To date the majority of Virginia’s localities building footprints have been captured but not all.
This layer contains ONLY features within the six case study parks associated with the "Segregation in Virginia's National Parks, 1916-1965" StoryMap. The original purpose of creating and utilizing a road spatial data standard is to consolidate road spatial data and integrate the existing feature attribute information into a national database for reporting, planning, analysis and sharing purposes. The primary benefit of using the road spatial data standard remains the organization and documentation of road data to allow users to share spatial data between parks, regions, programs, other federal agencies, and the public, at the national level.

This layer contains ONLY features within the six case study parks associated with the "Segregation in Virginia's National Parks, 1916-1965" StoryMap. The original feature class contains lines representing formal and informal trails as well as routes within and across National Park Units. This dataset uses a set of core attributes designed by the NPS enterprise geospatial committee.

This layer contains ONLY features within the six case study parks associated with the "Segregation in Virginia's National Parks, 1916-1965" StoryMap. The original service depicts National Park Service tract and boundary data that was created by the Land Resources Division. NPS Director's Order #25 states: "Land status maps will be prepared to identify the ownership of the lands within the authorized boundaries of the park unit. These maps, showing ownership and acreage, are the 'official record' of the acreage of Federal and non-federal lands within the park boundaries. While these maps are the official record of the lands and acreage within the unit's authorized boundaries, they are not of survey quality and not intended to be used for survey purposes." As such this data is intended for use as a tool for GIS analysis. It is in no way intended for engineering or legal purposes. The data accuracy is checked against best available sources which may be dated and vary by location. NPS assumes no liability for use of this data. The boundary polygons represent the current legislated boundary of a given NPS unit. NPS does not necessarily have full fee ownership or hold another interest (easement, right of way, etc...) in all parcels contained within this boundary. Equivalently NPS may own or have an interest in parcels outside the legislated boundary of a given unit. In order to obtain complete information about current NPS interests both inside and outside a unit’s legislated boundary tract level polygons are also created by NPS Land Resources Division and should be used in conjunction with this boundary data. To download this data directly from the NPS go to https://irma.nps.gov/App/Portal/Home Property ownership data is compiled from deeds, plats, surveys, and other source data. These are not engineering quality drawings and should be used for administrative purposes only.

These data and related graphics are not legal documents and are not intended to be used as such. The information contained in these data is dynamic and may change over time. The data are not better than the original sources from which they were derived. It is the responsibility of the data user to use the data appropriately and consistent within the limitations of geospatial data in general and these data in particular. The related graphics are intended to aid the data user in acquiring relevant data; it is not appropriate to use the related graphics as data. The National Park Service gives no warranty, expressed or implied, as to the accuracy, reliability, or completeness of these data. It is strongly recommended that these data are directly acquired from an NPS server and not indirectly through other sources which may have changed the data in some way. Although these data have been processed successfully on a computer system at the National Park Service, no warranty expressed or implied is made regarding the utility of the data on another system or for general or scientific purposes, nor shall the act of distribution constitute any such warranty. This disclaimer applies both to individual use of the data and aggregate use with other data.
The state boundaries of Virginia, clipped as part of the "Segregation in Virginia's National Parks, 1916-1965" StoryMap. The survey sites were pulled from the associated Segregation in Virginia's National Parks, 1916-1965 (2022) historic resource study written by Dr. Erin Krutko Devlin of the University of Mary Washington (UMW) and commissioned by the National Park Service. Staff and students affiliated with UMW's Geography Department generated the original feature layers and maps which were subsequently edited by NPS staff. The original layer represented the 50 states, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico of the United States.
