Abstract
The parcel feature class is a polygon feature class representing the individual parcels for Butte County, California, 2009, which was derived from assessor map pages in digital and hardcopy formats. All new parcels are entered from assessor CAD pages registered to orthorectified imagery.
Purpose
For use with GIS software. This layer is designed as a Tax Parcel product. This information is intended for cartographic use, general spatial analysis and as a spatial index to Land related information. It is not intended for site specific analysis.

Data Quality Information
Attribute Accuracy Report
Attributes are currently under review.
Logical Consistency Report
The data set is topologically structured polygon data.
Completeness Report
All areas of Butte County and all incorporated areas have been mapped. Completeness is 100%.
Horizontal Positional Accuracy Report
The relative horizontal positional accuracy for the information used to develop the original tax parcel data is estimated at +/- 20 feet (NMAS 1:12000) in urban areas and +/- 40 feet (NMAS 1:24000) in rural areas. With the implementation of the GPS centerline positional accuracy is higher in areas.

Contribution
BCAG contracted with the consulting firm Quad Knopf Engineering, Inc., to take BCDDS’s countywide parcel file and improve its spatial accuracy by rectifying it to BCAG’s highly accurate centerline road file. Also, base was brought up-to-date by adding missing parcels.
