Welcome to the GetParcelData Blog

Announcing our new blog where we cover GIS insights, parcel data tutorials, and updates from the team.

Why We Started This Blog

Parcel data is complex. County assessors use hundreds of different field names for the same concept. Coordinate systems vary. Data quality is inconsistent. For a comprehensive overview of the current landscape, see our post on The State of US Parcel Data in 2026.
We built GetParcelData to solve these problems at scale — and now we want to share what we learned along the way.

What to Expect

We will be covering topics like how parcel IDs work across different states, how to work with ArcGIS feature services, best practices for GIS data normalization, and updates on our coverage expansion.
Stay tuned.
