Description:
Abstract: Parcel boundaries are a geographic representation compiled from legal descriptions of property surveys and deeds of ownership as recorded in the Tompkins County Clerk's Office annually.
Purpose: Tax parcel boundaries in Tompkins County for a given year plus selected information added from the Tompkins County real property services (RPS) database for web applications. The boundaries represent the one-to-one match (GIS and RPS) with the parcel boundaries shown on the final paper maps for a given year. This version is mainly used for applications where there is a live link to the extensive RPS data via Imagemate Online.
