Description: Arcs representing center of right-of-way and easements throughout Pierce County. Data is gps'd, acquired from orthophotos, or digitized using LIDAR according to "source" field. Additionally, data is acquired from other jurisdictions so currentness may vary between jurisdictions. Address ranges and full street names are included. Duplicate arcs are included on jurisdictional boundaries where they do not share the same street name. A supplemental street name alias table is used to aid in geocoding and for routing processes. The street name alias table can be downloaded here (https://matterhorn.co.pierce.wa.us/OpenData/SupplementalData/StreetAliasTable/Street_Name_Alias_Table.zip). Please see the Roads metadata (https://matterhorn.co.pierce.wa.us/GISmetadata/pdbis_roads.html) and Street Name Alias metadata (https://matterhorn.co.pierce.wa.us/OpenData/SupplementalData/StreetAliasTable/streetnamealias.html) for additional information. Any data download constitutes acceptance of the Terms of Use (https://matterhorn.co.pierce.wa.us/Disclaimer/PierceCountyGISDataTermsofUse.pdf).
Description: <b>Abstract:</b> This feature class includes streams digitized from Parametrix field inventory of 2003 and those added using AutoCAD drawings submitted as deliverables from a project site or other environmental work. Streams inventoried as part of City projects that have their information delivered as shapefiles or ACAD drawings are added to the feature class. Periodically PC Streams is referenced as is the 2017 Contour feature class. During the March 2019 update, Josh Grbich in Collections, was consulted as he has formidable knowledge of City drainage. Also, during the March 2019 update several streams were removed with information provided by Josh Grbich. Using PC's 2017 Contours, some stream channels were altered to follow topography correctly. As part of this update, the direction of flow was established using known information and input from the Collections Department. Direction of flow was corrected in many cases. This feature class can now be used for networking with other feature classes with flow.<br /><b>Purpose:</b> Individuals wanting to know the location of streams in the Urban Growth Area (UGA) and incorporated city limits of Puyallup will find this feature class useful. This feature class represents stream centerlines only. Direction of flow was corrected March 2019 so that this feature class can be used for geometric networking.

Description: <DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><DIV><P STYLE="margin:0 0 11 0;"><SPAN>This feature class shows ponds, lakes, reservoirs and coves in Pierce County. This feature classs was built using the 2011 LIDAR provided by the Puget Sound Lidar Consortium. Most features were drawn following an individual 2-foot contour (created by the 2011 LIDAR). Some features do not follow a single contour throughout the entire body of water so LIDAR imagery and orthophotography were utilized to fill in the appropriate boundary for these bodies of water. </SPAN></P></DIV></DIV></DIV>

Description: <DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><DIV><P><SPAN>For this feature class, a riverbank is defined as the area in which a river could possibly migrate. We were able to draw this feature class based on that definition by using a combination of the 2011 LIDAR imagery, 2-foot contours and orthophotos (new and historical). Each of the sources were utilized to provide evidence to where the riverbanks extend to. The decision to capture possible migration channels was chosen to keep a consistent and functional riverbank layer while also establishing an accurate area of where the river could possibly flow. </SPAN></P></DIV></DIV></DIV>
