The GIS Group has developed or acquired many types of data. This includes imaging, documents, attribute and spatial data. Underlying all forms of data is our basemap, which comprises parcels and centerlines. Parcels are linked to Assessor data and can provide a rich array of land use, zoning, ownership, and other types of information. Centerlines are limited to street address ranges and provide powerful address matching and routing capabilities. The basemap is based in the NAD83 State Plane Coordinate System, Zone II.
If you have questions related to the basemap, please contact the GIS department at sacgis@saccounty.net.
