WV SAMB Building Points and Polygons

These datasets contain points and polygons (of buildings over a certain size) of all buildings in West Virginia. The data was collected from 2003 natural color orthophotography by the WV Statewide Addressing and Mapping Board. These datasets contain all buildings, regardless of occupancy status. This data has never been validated. These data were originally published as two separate shapefiles, north and south, in WV State Plane projection. Upon receipt of the data, the West Virginia GIS Technical Center reprojected the datasets to UTM NAD83 Zone 17 North and merged the north and south shapefiles into one, statewide dataset.
