GIS Hosts Information Session about Parcel Viewer for Industry Users, Schedules Another for the Public

By: John Watermolen, GIS Manager, Orange County Information Technology Department

On January 23, the GIS section within the County ’ s IT department hosted a workshop for local realtors on the County ’ s Tax Parcel Viewer. The workshop included the reason for the upgrade and the functionality of the various tools in the viewer, a Question - and - Answer session, and other possible functionalities that could be added to the tax parcel viewer. The content and feedback were well - received.

Building upon that success, the GIS team has scheduled an additional workshop for interested residents. This class is not restricted to industry users, and will be open to anyone who would like to learn more about what GIS does and how their efforts impact property records, public safety, and much more. This FREE program will be hosted at the Orange County Public Safety Building (in the Board Meeting Room) on March 19. The class will begin at 6:00 p.m. and light refreshments will be provided. Interested in attending? Registration is hosted in partnership with Orange County Parks & Recreation, and is available online. Registration will help us ensure that we have enough materials and snacks for those in attendance. Questions? Call (540) 661 - 5458 or email jwatermolen@orangecountyva.gov.
