A generic latitude and longitude for each county. These points are provided so a map layer can be developed using files with aggregated data grouped by county name. Use this generic latitude and longitude georeferenced point file and assign any information to the correct county showing on a boundary map layer. If totals are shown in a file for the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and the desire is to show the total for the state on a map layer, there is a generic latitude and longitude point given for Pennsylvania that will show in the South East corner of the map visual actually landing in the state of Maryland. This is provided for visualizing and displaying the state information on the map layer along with county information.
This dataset has the following 6 columns:
Column Name | API Column Name | Data Type | Description | Sample Values |
---|---|---|---|---|
County Name | name | text | English name of the Pennsylvania county | York Crawford Monroe Westmoreland Union view top 100 |
County Code Number | co_code_num | number | True number format for the county code field | 8 33 55 19 29 view top 100 |
County Code text | co_cde_text | text | A text field for the county code number. This will help align all codes with 2 digits. | 13 28 01 39 19 view top 100 |
Longitude | longitude | text | A generic Longitude point within the county. A point is also provided for outside of the state (on a map it will sit to the southeast of the state). This number represents the total number for the state and this location provides a spot on a map to display the PA number without having it duplicate within a county when using in a mapping visual. | -79.91711779 -77.25788076 -77.06415803 -75.60099481 -76.71188423 view top 100 |
Latitude | latitude | text | A generic Latitude point within the county. A point is also provided for outside of the state (on a map it will sit to the southeast of the state). This number represents the total number for the state and this location provides a spot on a map to display the PA number without having it duplicate within a county when using in a mapping visual. | 41.77333834 41.42819416 41.40341259 40.00444354 40.416105 view top 100 |
Georeferenced Latitude & Longitude | geocoded_column | point | A generic georeferenced Latitude & Longitude point within the county. These points can be used to create visualizations such as maps to show the data by county. A point is also provided for outside of the state (on a map it will sit to the southeast of the state). This number represents the total number for the state and this location provides a spot on a map to display the PA number without having it duplicate within a county when using in a mapping visual. | {"coordinates":[-77.89879229,41.74420644],"type":"Point"} {"coordinates":[-77.25907385,40.40415317],"type":"Point"} {"coordinates":[-75.60099481,40.61464794],"type":"Point"} {"coordinates":[-78.34907687,40.48555024],"type":"Point"} {"coordinates":[-75.03270924,41.332572],"type":"Point"} view top 100 |
