Lineage
Since 2017 maintenance in ArcGIS has been supplanted by 'ForesterWeb' cloud based mapping solution. Prior to 2017 estates data was maintained via the Deed Management System within Desktop ArcGIS. The Legal Boundary layer shows our current legal boundaries generated by Forest District. The internal deed boundaries are not shown and does not have deed attributes attached, just names for the districts. This file will be used widely throughout the FC, in various GIS projects where a picture of our land holdings is required.
