Description:
Abstract:
This data set identifies properties that are subject to Loudoun County Zoning Ordinance, Section 4-1800, Quarry Notification Overlay District. The Office of Building and Development administers the district.

Purpose:
The layer is a general overlay identifying properties within the County-administered Quarry Notification Overlay District. This district is established to acknowledge the unique land use impact of a quarry on neighboring land uses and the need to notify the owners of the presence of a neighboring quarry. District boundaries are based on the presence of quarrying operations at any location in the County, and should include all parcels within 3,000 (three thousand) feet of any property approved for quarrying operations regardless of whether or not blasting operations occur on such property.

Supplemental information:
Data are stored in the corporate ArcSDE Geodatabase as a polygon feature class.  The coordinate system is Virginia State Plane (North), Zone 4501, datum NAD83 HARN.

Data Quality Information:


Attribute accuracy:
Attribute accuracy report:
Retention of attribute accuracy throughout the coverage to geodatabase feature class coversion process was ensured by a QA/QC programmatic check. To meet satisfactory QA/QC requirements the input coverage and output feature class must have, on a record by record basis, identical attribution when comparing all concatenated fields to all the user-defined attribution.

Logical consistency report:
Topologically clean

Completeness report:
Features may have been eliminated or generalized due to scale and intended use.  To assist Loudoun County, Virginia in the maintenance of the data, please provide any information concerning discovered errors, omissions, or other discrepancies found in the data.

Positional accuracy:
Horizontal positional accuracy:
Horizontal positional accuracy report:
Retention of coordinate accuracy throughout the coverage to geodatabase feature class conversion process was ensured by a QA/QC programmatic check. To meet satisfactory QA/QC requirements the input coverage and output feature class must have the same record total, and on a record by record basis, area, perimeter, and length differential of less than +/- 0.5%.

Process step:
Process description:
The Quarry Notification Overlay District data was originally created in 2000 as a single tile data layer in order to produce a map to illustrate provisions in the Loudoun County Zoning Ordinance, Section 4-1800. An error in how the data was mapped was corrected in 2002.

Process step:
Process description:
This data set was part of a batch process that converted legacy data from ArcInfo coverage in Librarian to a single-tiled ArcInfo coverage in preparation for a final coversion to ArcSDE Geodatabase Feature Classes. Data were extracted from Librarian using the EXTRACT TOPOLOGICAL command.

Multi-tiled data sets were extracted into multiple coverages and then combined based on the feature type(s). Layers with both polygon and arc feature classes were processed with the Arc commands, MAPJOIN and DISSOLVE. Arc feature classes alone were processed with the Arc commands, APPEND and DISSOLVE. Layers with both arc and point feature classes and point feature classes alone were processed with the Arc command, APPEND.  When used, the Arc command, DISSOLVE, was given with the <#all> option.

All coverages were then reprojected to HARN 83 using the following .prj file specifications: 
INPUT
PROJECTION STATEPLANE
UNITS FEET
ZONE 5551
DATUM NAD27 NADCON
PARAMETERS
OUTPUT
PROJECTION STATEPLANE
UNITS FEET
FIPSZONE 4501
DATUM HPGN NADCON
PARAMETERS END
			   
This dataset was then converted to a feature class in a geodatabase in ArcSDE.

ZMAP-2010-0006 expanded the Quarry Notification District around the Luck Stone Quarry near Leesburg.  A listing of new quarry parcels from which the new 3,000' buffer was created from is available in the file for ZMAP-2010-0006.  This ZMAP was adopted by the Board of Supervisors on January 4, 2011.
