Maps focused on a theme


Community and neighborhood maps


Community and neighborhood maps are the smallest mapped land areas. They're "palettes" for themes like "safety" (block watch and neighborhood emergency teams), "recreation" (parks and trails), "hydrology" (lakes, streams, etc.), and more.

Locally managed data can be included on the maps. A community often has visual features that are not generally available from public sources. The name of a development (e.g. Maple Hills Estates), a home-based business (e.g. Jill's Antiques), or a noticeable feature (the water tower) are examples of local data that can be "mapped".

Locally managed data can also be used to support community and neighborhood safety projects like block watch groups and neighborhood emergency teams.

High Valley Community area (roads)

The proposed boundaries of the High Valley Community are defined by a common road. This map removes the parcels to more clearly show the road and the streets it feeds.

The High Valley Community has only one road entrance/exit: 196th Ave SE which comes off of SE 128th St as it drops into May Valley.

As 196th Ave SE loops around the south end of Lake McDonald it becomes SE 150th St. The road becomes SE 152nd St, 207th Pl SE and 209th Ave SE before ending at SE 159th St.

The High Valley Community is initially defined by any parcels touched by this road network. Parcels can be added or removed at the discretion of the community.

NOTE: The High Valley Community may cover a larger area than the "High Valley" development (High Valley Home Owners Association)

Things to remember

Content

  • Atlas maps are always subject to update
  • Individual maps may be relatively mature while others may be draft or sample maps

Layout

  • The map logo contains the map title, projection, file name, and version date
  • Maps are "drawn" on an 11-inch by 17-inch canvas with a 0.3-inch margin

Output

  • PDF versions are included for each map.
  • Print-quality PDF maps are displayed when thumbnail images are clicked
  • PDF maps come in 300dpi and 700dpi versions
    • 300dpi maps produce high-quality 11"x17" paper sizes or less
    • 700dpi maps will produce high-quality maps up to 24" wide or 36" long
    • NOTE: The GRCC logo is stored at 500dpi. There may be some loss of quality when maps larger that 20" wide are produced
  • Most maps are designed for 11"x17" (landscape) or 17"x11" (portrait) output when printed
    • If printed on smaller paper, make sure the output is properly oriented and that the output is set to "fit" to the paper's printable area.

Relevant documents

  • In some cases there is a document included that is related to the theme map.
    • These documents contain text and other information that helps explain the related theme map.
