SanGIS and SANDAG have teamed up to provide the San Diego region with a single source of authoritative GIS data.
Whether you started at the SanGIS web site or the
SANDAG web site you are getting exactly the same data.
This GIS data covers everything from addresses to zoning and includes roads, property, parks, lakes, topography,
census and dozens of other layers - over 270 layers in 29 different categories. Here you will find official city boundaries,
freeways and major roads, property boundaries, census areas and statistics, community planning areas, lakes,
streams, business zones, and geospatial information on many other topics. The data are collected from multiple
sources including the City of San Diego, the County of San Diego, the State of California, and the federal
government.
SanGIS and SANDAG are proud to provide this single, authoritative source of regional GIS data free
for public use.
This public-facing data is free to download through this page. The data are stored as
compressed “Shape” files (SHP). Metadata (information about the data) are provided in PDF format. Shape files
can be read by many GIS and CADD systems. You can also use
ArcExplorer - a free data viewer from
ESRI.
A complete list of available layers can be downloaded as an
Excel or
PDF file.
