Hey everyone,

 

Thanks for all the responses. The overwhelming response was to visit the
Georgia GIS Clearinghouse <https://data.georgiaspatial.org/login.asp>  .
I did so and was able to get the County Boundary I needed, Decatur;
although it was in Coverage format, but then it's fun to learn new
things. I've become partial to gdbs and feature classes.

 

The Clearinghouse did have a large amount of information; however, a
portion of it is not available for free. Case and point, the Land
Districts/Lots I was looking for in Decatur County. Apparently they were
not laid down on paper back in the day, but have been produced recently
by a private firm ergo the $60 fee for a bunch of squares.

 

So I did the next best thing, got my hands on a 1983 Georgia DOT paper
map that happened to show them (assumingly with some level of accuracy),
added the map to ArcMap as a scanned image and digitized the portion I
needed and viola, problem solved.

 

Thanks again for the suggestions and offers of assistance.

Hey Shruggers,

 

I'm looking for shp files for Georgia County Boundaries and Georgia Land
Districts? Anybody got 'em or can someone point me in the right
direction?

 

Thanks/
