Working with Property Information

Property information displays the properties and other GIS objects associated with a transaction. Use this page to add or remove associated GIS objects and to view GIS information collected during the application process.

Property information is configured on the application forms by the agency during the design process. When filling out an application, the public user enters information, which is then displayed in the detail pages of the transaction.

Only agency staff can update information on the Property Information page after an application has been submitted.

  2. On the Transactions page, click the row for the permit or planning application you are working with.

  3. Click Property Information in the left panel.

  5. Click a row to view detailed parcel, address, and owner information for the property on the Property Information modal page.

  6. View the Additional Property Reference grid that contains GIS information for each property associated with the application.

    The GIS attributes are retrieved from map layer content and saved in this grid in the application details after you select a property on the application. For each additional property that you select, the respective GIS attributes and values intersecting that property are also collected. The captured attributes may only be visible to agency staff, depending on the application design.

    Note: The agency sets up the map services, map layers, and object attributes for collecting GIS information on the Map Layer Content tab of the GIS Attribute Mapping page. For more information, see Setting Up GIS Attribute Mapping. For information about selecting the attributes to collect on an application form, see "Working with Property Field Groups" in Using Predefined Field Groups.
