Description: This data set is a spatial representation of municipalities in New Jersey developed by the NJ Office of Information Technology, Office of GIS (NJOGIS) in NJ State Plane Coordinate System (NAD83), and re-projected to Web Mercator Auxiliary Sphere (EPSG 3857). It is not a survey document and must not be used as such. The polygons delineated in this data set do not represent legal boundaries. This data set improves upon previous versions of municipal boundaries through the integration of coincident features from several high quality source data sets, as a component of the NJOGIS statewide Parcels Normalization Project concluded in March 2010. Updates continue to be made as necessary.
