Hampton Roads Future Land Use (2023)

This layer compiles future land use for Hampton Roads localities, reflecting conditions circa 2023. The planning horizon for each locality differs; the year is noted in the attribute table. Some localities have provided new/updated data since the last update (2016/2019), while others have approved using previous data. Each locality maintains its land use categories. However, the Hampton Roads Transportation Planning Organization (HRTPO) developed a regional land use data schema in 2011 as regionally consistent land use categories are essential to modeling for the Long-Range Transportation Plan. Full metadata on the regional land use categories can be found by visiting the following website. This document contains the data dictionary for the attributes.

The regional land use codes are divided into Major and Minor categories, and the local land use category is also preserved in the table. The localities each reviewed the crosswalk between their categories and the regional assignment.
