13. GIS for Land Records
• Responsibility to inventory legal records and value land
• Used in many vital government operations
• Assessment and Taxation, Land Use, Infrastructure, Deeds and Documents

14. Evolving Land Records Requirements
• Historically, land records information has been used
internally by local g
y y governments
• And under valued and under utilized by more public audiences
• But that is changing…..

18. Demonstration
Parcel Editing

19. Break – 15 minutes

20. Parcel editing with ArcGIS 10
• Data model (parcel fabric) specifically for managing parcels
as part of core software
t f ft
- Topological integrity
- Improve positional accuracy of parcels and related data
- History T ki
Hi t Tracking
- Optionally maintain metadata
• New parcel editor toolbar – streamlines workflows for editing
parcels
- Splits, merges, resurveys, etc
- Import digitally submitted data (from CAD or other sources)
• Templates to give you best practices

21. What is a parcel fabric?
• Continuous network of parcel boundaries
• R
Record i f
d information f
ti from plans/deeds i t
l /d d integrated i t
t d into
a topologically correct parcel layer

22. Why is the parcel fabric important to you?
• Data model specifically for managing parcels
• Improved workflows for managing parcels
- Based on the operations you do every day – splits, combines, etc.
• Data integrity and accuracy
g y y
• History tracking (based on both system and legal dates)
• Optional metadata on plans and editors

23. Data integrity
• Land records from plans/deeds are integrated into a
continuous, topologically correct parcel layer
• No slivers and gaps
- Parcel joining preserves parcel connectivity during incorporation

24. Data integrity
• Fabric adjustment uses survey control and COGO
dimensions to recalculate/update parcel corner points
Improving spatial accuracy over time

25. Why are accuracy and integrity important?
• Property tax values derived from legal records (plans/deeds)
• Accurate and up-to-date land records information used
throughout government to support many vital functions
• Other data (including imagery) becoming more accurate

26. Parcel history enhances integrity
• Maintained automatically as you edit
• System start/end and legal start/end dates supported
• Not the same as geodatabase archiving

27. Demonstration
Workflows & Tax Map Books

28. Editing Workflows
• Task Assistant allows creation of steps for editors to follow
• Checkboxes and help information to further guide process

29. Tax Map Books
• Standard tools for publishing parcel map book pages
• Scripting automates map book production

30. Solutions
S l ti

31. Implementing the Land Records Solution
• Identify your business needs
• Which land records application will provide the largest business value
in your organization
• Review content on the Resource Center
• Templates, hosted apps, videos, blogs
• Identify ArcGIS platform requirements
• Configure template(s) in your organization
• Plan your migration
• Data, workflows, apps
• Identify areas where y
y you may need help
y p
• Esri and Partner Network available if needed

32. Identify the Business Needs
Use the patterns….
• General Land Records Platform
G lL dR d Pl f
• Start with Tax Parcel Editing and then add other apps
• Data Management
• Start with Tax Parcel Editing and Tax Map Book
• Constituent Engagement
• Start with Tax Parcel Viewer and Parcel Value for iPhone
• Planning and Analysis
• Start with Value Analysis Dashboard
…many ways to leverage the maps and apps in the ArcGIS for Land Records system

34. Scenarios
Land Records

35. Scenario: Implement Tax Parcel Editing Template
• Review Tax Parcel Editing Template
g p
• Editing map – well defined layers, label expressions
and attractive cartography
• Productivity tools – enhance the core editing
i
environment t
• Geodatabase – methods for managing multiple
parcel types in a parcel fabric, annotation best
practices
• Review how consistent your data is with the
Local Government Model GDB

36. Scenario: Implement Tax Parcel Editing Template
• Download White Paper - Loading Data Into a Parcel Fabric
• I
Important aspects:
t t t
• Different paths depending on state of source data
• Using a topology to check initial data integrity
• Delineating curves
D li ti
• Modeling parcel types (lots, subdivisions, etc.)
• Annotation

37. Scenario: Implement Tax Parcel Editing Template
• Lets start migrating data
• The parcel fabric expects some level of spatial integrity to start
• Question #1 – How well do your tax parcels, boundaries, lots,
etc. line up?

38. Scenario: Implement Tax Parcel Editing Template
• Question #2 – How are curves represented within your data?

39. Scenario: Implement Tax Parcel Editing Template
• Ultimately, you’ll follow a process similar to this:
- Step 1 - Prepare your Fabric Data Model
- Step 2 - Prepare your Source Data
- Step 3 - Clean up the Geometry on your Source Data
- Step 4 - Establish Topology Required for Fabric Loading
- Step 5 - Load your Source Data to the Fabric
- Step 6 - Set up your Editing Map

40. Architecting the Land Records Solution
