Esri partner <a href=\"https:\/\/www.blueraster.com\/\">Blue Raster<\/a>, based in Arlington, Virginia, developed the map using the ArcGIS platform. Through their internal partnership, Zoning and the DC Office of Planning, realized a revision was long overdue. This is the first time the Zoning Regulations and Zoning Map have been comprehensively revised since 1958. The handbook and map are accessible from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dcoz.dc.gov\/\">DCOZ&#8217;s website<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The new ZR16 Zoning Map application and the Zoning Handbook generate a greater active interest in zoning by presenting visual data and a lot of content in a clear and concise manner. Blue Raster effectively worked to translate DCOZ&#8217;s vision into an application we are all proud of,&#8221; said Nyambi A. Nyambi, chief technology officer, District of Columbia Office of Zoning.<\/p>\n<p>The new Zoning Map includes the following:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"singleline\">  <\/p>\n<li>Detailed zoning data<\/li>\n<p>  <\/p>\n<li>Customized reports for zoning and planning information<\/li>\n<p>  <\/p>\n<li>Responsive design for mobile devices<\/li>\n<p>  <\/p>\n<li>High-resolution cartographic printing and documents<\/li>\n<p>  <\/p>\n<li>Ability to leverage the wealth of data from DC Office of the Chief Technology Officer open data<\/li>\n<p>  <\/p>\n<li>New ways of accessing information for Washington, DC, citizens and businesses<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&#8220;The team at Blue Raster is very excited to work with the DC Office of Zoning to deliver the new interactive mapping application,&#8221; said Stephan Ansari, principal, Blue Raster. &#8220;Ready access to the new Zoning Regulations empowers DC government, citizens, and developers to continue the historic revitalization of our nation&#8217;s capital.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The new Zoning Regulations will become effective on September 6, 2016.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The Zoning Handbook will help residents in the DC area understand and use the updated Zoning Regulations,&#8221; said Anthony Puzzo, Esri. &#8220;Blue Raster created an intuitive interactive map app to make the vast amount of important zoning information that is associated with properties in this area more accessible.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"menu_order":0,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"sync_status":"","episode_type":"","audio_file":"","castos_file_data":"","podmotor_file_id":"","cover_image":"","cover_image_id":"","duration":"","filesize":"","filesize_raw":"","date_recorded":"","explicit":"","block":"","itunes_episode_number":"","itunes_title":"","itunes_season_number":"","itunes_episode_type":"","footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-320821","announcements","type-announcements","status-publish","format-standard","hentry"],"acf":{"short_description":"","pdf":{"host_remotely":false,"file":null,"file_url":""},"flexible_content":null,"references":null},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v25.9 (Yoast SEO v25.9) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Blue Raster Incorporates Esri Technology into DC Office of Zoning Map - Esri<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/about\/newsroom\/announcements\/blue-raster-incorporates-esri-technology-into-dc-office-of-zoning-map\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Blue Raster Incorporates Esri Technology into DC Office of Zoning Map\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"ZR16 Zoning Map application and the Zoning Handbook generate a greater active interest in zoning by presenting visual data and a lot of content in a clear and concise manner.
