Urban Planning: GIS for Local Government

Zuco's Place

This is a screen shot of a parcel from the Marion County, FL Property Appraiser's website. The parcel outlined in red is the subject of this week's lab. We were asked by the property owner, Mr. Zuko, to provide information for an environmental impact analysis. What better way than to use GIS!

Enviornmental Imapct Analysis Basemap

This basemap identifies all parcels adjacent to Mr. Zuco. The table is a key that provides owner contact information, parcel size and zoning. This information can be used to notify property owners of a change in land use. We then used ArcMap's Data Driven Pages to create a Map Book that shows adjacent zoning for the study area.

County Extension Office Site

This map was created to show potential locations for a new County Extension Office in Gulf County, FL. The inset map shows the Commissioner's pick for the new location; a portion of a recent property acquisition. I used ArcMap to split out the northeast corner of the property which the Commissioner's decided to use for a future project.
