Map showing land uses in the City of Austin jurisdictions. Upated during October of even years.

Composite map of Future Land Use

This layer represents the jurisdiction and regulatory boundaries of the City of Austin.

Shows the acreage of "general" zoning categories in each neigborhood reporting area. Neigborhood reporting areas are a combination of official and unofficial boundaries for the purpose of collecting and reporting information (data) in Austin. They are comprised of Neighborhood Planning Areas (in the central core) which are approved and can only be changed by City Council. Areas outside of neighborhood planning areas were drawn using logical boundaries such as roadways, and covering larger areas encompassing several neighborhoods. A Neighborhood Reporting Area map is available at http://www.austintexas.gov/sites/default/files/files/Planning/Demographics/Neighborhood_Reporting_Areas.pdf. The zoning data does not indicate public right-of-way (ROW) areas, such as streets and railroad ROW's, which are not typically zoned. General zoning includes major base zone district categories plus zones with vertical and mixed use overlays. Zoning maps are available at http://austintexas.gov/page/planning-maps, and http://www.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=6803413bed5e4aa0bb13c93c71ccb41d. More information on zoning is available at http://www.austintexas.gov/department/zoning. This information is taken from the zoning layer, which can be accessed at https://data.austintexas.gov/.

More information is provided in the metadata document called land_database.htm that is available in the Attachments section. This layer contains land use, zoning, and appraisal data for the purposes of long-range planning and scenario modelling, current to October 2016, but based on a variety of sources with different capture dates. The land use information and parcel geogrpaphy are based on a land use inventory. It also includes estimates of residential units based on building permit, appraisal data, aerials, and a variety of other sources.

An ArcGIS lyr file is also provided to allow users to draw this GIS layer in ArcMap. Finally, this layer is available on Arcgis.com by searching for "owner:CTM.Publisher land use." If you download a shapefile from this dataset, note that some field names are altered in the process of exporting to shapefile and may not match original names.

The land inventory is based on several sources. The polygon geography is taken from appraisal district parcel layers merged together. A land use inventory is performed by classifying land according to a coding system that reflects the primary improvements (buildings or structures) on each parcel. Most of the land use information is attached through a GIS Union from past land use inventories. Undeveloped parcels are checked against building permit, aerial photos, and appraisal records, generally collected during the fall, or when data was made available. Information is collected only in the City of Austin’s Full, Limited Purpose, and Extra-territorial jurisdictions, and not entire counties.

Do not use this data to make zoning determinations. This data does not show all zoning regulations for an address, including overlays and situations where an address has more than one zoning. Also, the data may be out of date. Use the interactive mapping application http://www.austintexas.gov/GIS/PropertyProfile/ to make zoning determinations, and call 311 if you have questions about zoning. Zoning only applies to addresses within the City of Austin city limits.

This dataset is a list of addresses with their zoning provided to answer questions such as "what property addresses have CS zoning." This data is derived from GIS layer for address and zoning. The place_id field is provided for linking to the addresses GIS layer.

This dataset includes information for projects that appear on the City of Austin’s Capital Improvement Visualization Information and Communication (CIVIC) Map Viewer, www.austintexas.gov/GIS/CIVIC/. These projects, also known as Capital Improvements Program (CIP) projects, implement the construction, replacement, or renovation of city assets that are useful to the community. Data is currently available for most CIP projects funded in full or in part by voter-approved bond programs from 2013, 2012, 2010, 2006, 2000, and 1998. The dataset below is subject to change at any time, and does not represent a comprehensive list of capital improvement projects.
