The GIS Department provides interactive web applications, GIS data, digital maps, and large format printing to residents, businesses, and other government entities.

But GIS is more than just maps. The GIS system is used for capturing, analyzing, communicating, and displaying information related to places. By relating seemingly unrelated data, GIS can help individuals and organizations better understand spatial patterns and relationships.

February 17, 2023: We have added a link to Environmental Health documents! The link is located at the bottom of the parcel pop-up box. Click the link and you'll be directed to well and septic information for that parcel (if applicable).

November 22, 2022: Have you ever clicked on the map and it says "No Information Available." If so, that's because we don't have a parcel for that area. To fix this situation, the GIS Department has begun mapping State appraised parcels, including those at Hyco and Mayo Lake. We expect this entire project to last nearly a year, with new parcels being mapped weekly.
