DBI Building Inspection Division Districts
A. SUMMARY
This dataset provides district boundaries used by San Francisco Department of Building Inspection programs. It contains geospatial data for the Building Inspection Division, supporting district reference, service planning, and public-facing district lookup.
B. HOW THE DATASET IS CREATED
This data is produced in ArcGIS Pro and published in ArcGIS Online as a feature service layer by SF Planning in collaboration with SF Department of Technology (SFGIS).
C. UPDATE PROCESS
The inspection district boundaries and assignments are defined and governed by the Department of Building Inspection under the direction of the Chief Building Inspector. District assignments and boundary lines are updated by DBI on an as-needed basis via a ticketing system to SF Planning and SFGIS.
