General Information

The Lancaster County GIS is part of the Information Technology Department and maintains a computer system and a large database of digital mapping covering the entire County. In Lancaster County's Geographic Information System, features such as parcels, municipal boundaries, topography (elevations and contours), land-use, watercourses, roads, bridges, buildings, and so on, are represented as map-features which are linked to a database containing certain essential information.
 

GIS is used by various County departments such as the Planning Commission, the Property Assessment Office, the County Engineer, and Lancaster County-Wide Communications. Lancaster County GIS maintains equipment, software and data, and builds new user applications to support the use of GIS by County agencies. Lancaster County GIS also manages the sale of mapping products and the distribution of GIS data for municipal and commercial users.
