Use cases

Where a parcel layer changes the product.

A basemap makes an application look finished. Ownership, hazard and land-status data is what makes it answer a question the user could not answer anywhere else.

01

Property and real estate platforms

Show a listing inside its real legal boundary rather than a pin dropped near it. Parcel geometry plus the county’s own attributes turns a map from decoration into the part of the product people actually use.

  • Parcels
  • Basemap
  • Addresses
02

Land, timber and agriculture

Ownership, acreage and terrain in one view, with hydrography and wetlands to show what is workable. For anyone acquiring or managing rural acreage, the parcel and the constraint layers are the whole analysis.

  • Parcels
  • Terrain
  • Wetlands
  • Hydrography
03

Insurance and risk modelling

Score a location against FEMA flood zones and historical wildfire perimeters at the parcel level instead of the ZIP level. Underwriting decisions that were approximate become specific.

  • Parcels
  • FEMA flood
  • Wildfire perimeters
04

Utilities, energy and infrastructure

Route and site against ownership, public land, protected areas and the PLSS grid that legal descriptions are written against. Knowing whose land a line crosses is the expensive question, and it is a parcel question.

  • Parcels
  • PLSS
  • Public lands
  • Terrain
05

Government and civic tools

Public-facing viewers for assessment, permitting, zoning and hazard disclosure, built on a map you are not paying per view to show to your own residents.

  • Parcels
  • FEMA flood
  • Critical facilities
06

Field and offline applications

Land work happens where there is no signal. A PMTiles archive is one file, so a bounded region ships inside the app and works in a canyon with the radio off.

  • Offline packages
  • Terrain
  • Public lands
Honest note

What we are not the right tool for

Consumer navigation, turn-by-turn routing, live traffic, street-level imagery and current business listings are all outside what we do. If your product needs those, Google or Mapbox will serve you better and we will say so on a call rather than after a contract.
