This data set was developed as an information layer for the Washington State Department of Commerce. It is designed to be used as part of the Puget Sound Mapping Project to provide a generalized and standardized depiction of land uses and growth throughout the Puget Sound region. This map represents land uses, zoning abbreviations and zoning descriptions. Zoning data was collected in raster format and digitized by State Department of Commerce staff. The generalized depiction of intended future land use is based primarily upon 2012 zoning and 2010 assessor's records.NOTE: Because this is a large dataset, some geoprocessing operations (i.e. dissolve) may not work on the entire dataset. You will receive a topoengine error. Clipping out an area of interest (i.e. a county) and performing the operation on it instead of on the full dataset is a way to get around this software limitation.

Processes involving liquid-to-gas phase change in porous media are routinely encountered. Growth of a gas phase by solute diffusion in the liquid is typical of the `solution gas-drive` process for the recovery of oil. The growth of a single gas cluster in a porous medium driven by a constant supersaturation is examined. Patterns and rates of growth are derived. It is shown that the growth pattern is not compact and changes from pure percolation to pure Diffusion-Limited-Aggregation (DLA) as the size of the cluster increases. The scaling of the cluster sizes that delineate these patterns, with supersaturation and diffusivity is presented for the case of quasi-static diffusion. In 3-D, the diffusive growth law is found to be R{sub g} {approximately} t{sup 2/3}, which is different than the classical R{sub g} {approximately} t{sup 1/2}.

Combined incorporated city limit boundaries and unincorporated Urban Growth Areas (UGA) as defined by the Growth Management Act. Updates made in 2020 were made by collecting city limits and urban growth area boundary information from each of Washington's 39 counties, where available, and the Washington State Department of Transportation.  Layer updated to geo.wa.gov on May 17, 2021.
