DIGITAL SUBMISSIONS
For all RMP Updates, the digital submission standard will assist the Highlands Council and its participating entities in receiving, processing,
utilizing, maintaining, and disseminating digital data. All digital submissions shall meet the NJDEP Geographic Information System Mapping and
Digital Data Standards (N.J.A.C. 7:1D Appendix A) and the following minimum requirements:
1. All digital geospatial data must meet or reference published standards such as those defined by the Federal Geographic Data
Committee or a defined survey standard, regardless of scale. Testing against base maps or photography of known accuracy determines the accuracy
of data. This will ensure appropriate positional accuracy of the geographic data, and therefore, compatibility of digital information.
2. All digital geospatial data must be provided to or produced for the Council as GIS geodatabase or Shape Files (.SHP) and are
required to be in North American Datum 1983 (NAD83) horizontal geodetic datum, and in the New Jersey State Plane Coordinate System (SPC)
or the most current SPC and in an ARCGIS compatible format.
3. All digital geospatial data must be documented using the Federal Geographic Data Committee (FGDC) Metadata Standard or
be compliant with the FGDC metadata standard.
Any submissions to the Highlands Council that do not satisfy the requirements will be considered incomplete and the preparer notified of any
necessary information. See the NJDEP Geographic Information System Mapping and Digital Data Standards (N.J.A.C. 7:1D Appendix A) for the
complete submission standards.
