We undertook creating the first ever seamless statewide General Plan map for California. All county general plans and many city general plans were integrated into 1 statewide Geographic Information System (GIS) dataset. The data was then standardized to thirteen consistent land use classifications for the intent of natural resource and infrastructure planning. This data represents one of the two-part GIS datasets. The dataset is a scenario of landuse more adequately representing current residential and rural residential growth. The sister dataset is the 'source' General Plans. This dataset represents the general plans as they were delivered to us from counties, after they were rectified to 13 standard land use classes. This work took place at the University of California Davis. The data is freely available and distributed through the California Resources Agency.
