Users can view a county's property maps, zoom in on an area of interest and click on a parcel to display state assessments and taxation database records on that parcel. MdProperty View's maps and database files are also spatially referenced to base maps, digital road maps and satellite imagery to help the user establish a visual frame of reference, state officials said. It will do for the analysis of spatial information what the Lotus spreadsheet did for the analysis of numbers.
Users can also create charts and graphs showing selected attributes of various property groupings.
Customers lease MdProperty View for 12 months through regional resellers, downloading monthly data updates via the Internet. Resellers can tailor ArcView to fit a user's needs, reducing the cost of the software, Baker said. All rights reserved.
