DDR Change Information
General Information
-
Listed below is helpful information and recent/upcoming changes of which you should be aware.
DWG/DXF Output
-
Current version of DWG/DXF output is AutoCAD 2010.
Planimetrics Information
-
1/25/2023 - Buildings, pavement edge, water, and other features were updated "on-screen" from spring 2022 imagery.
Property Information
-
Attributes now available with the property data include: Property ID, Situs Address, Owner Name & Address (if licensed), Generalized Landuse, Land Based Classification Standards (LBCS),
Legal Description, Tax Unit, Year Built, Dwelling Units, Acres, Sq. Feet, Perimeter, Property Polygon Type, Class.
-
Property annotation has changed to geodatabase annotation. We are
experiencing some difficulty getting the annotation to look exactly like it
did before. There will be instances where the annotation may not line up
exactly as it should. We are trying to minimize this as much as possible,
but it will occur.
Aerial Photography Information
-
The source of aerial (and ortho) photography is now a single seamless
countywide image for each flight
date. This allows clipping by any specified extent.
It also means, however, that photography requested by section or quarter section
will not extend outside of the section or quarter section (previously 100-200 feet
outside of the section were included in each section tile). If this area is desired as output then the "select
by map" option should be utilized.
-
Output images will always be rectangular, even if the specified extent was non-rectangular. The clipping is done by the bounding box of the specified extent.
-
When ordering by quarter section, a full square mile of imagery is no longer delivered
(nor do you have to pay for the full square mile). However, you will receive a
separate image for each quarter section ordered even if they are in the same section.
-
Historical imagery is now available. You are required to order the
current year imagery, but then you are offered multiple years of historic imagery that AIMS has captured.
-
The format choices available for imagery are TIF and Mr SID. The Mr SID format is
compressed so the file size should be quite a bit smaller, but the quality of
the image may be slightly reduced.
-
Color orthophotography was acquired in the last flight of imagery. Color imagery increases
the file size over Black and White about threefold because of the extra bands.
AIMS has also resampled the color imagery to grayscale. This will allow you
to continue ordering the smaller file size grayscale images if you wish.
Surface/LiDAR Information
- LiDAR data is available and can be selected under the planimetric data selection (flown in December 2020).
LiDAR stands for LIght Detection And Ranging and is
an efficient way to capture elevation data across a wide area. The resulting data
is a series of points with an elevation.
In order to request the LiDAR data you must first choose planimetrics. There will
be no additional charge; the cost is included in the cost to purchase planimetrics.
When requested, the data is delivered in 3 formats: XYZ (which are comma separated value files - CSV), LAS, and DTM (Tiff).
The export of whole tiles is no longer necessary. The resulting surface files now come as a single merged file and are clipped to the area of interest.
Due to the increased density of the LiDAR point data breakline data is less dense and is represented by a polygon that can be used as a "hard replace" on the LiDAR data.
For more information regarding the LiDAR data, visit the
LiDAR Information Page.
Utility Information
-
Utility data is available for partners licensing the utility information. This
feature is limited to the cities, utility companies, and sub contractors that are a
part of the Collaborative Utility Exchange (CUE).
Other Information
-
Attributes now available with the plat data include: Plat ID, Plat Name, Plat Number, Book, Page, Qtr. Section ID,
Area Sq. Ft., City ID, Date Recorded, Year Recorded, Instrument, Instrument Desc., Number of Units, Perimeter in Ft.
-
Attributes now available with the subdivision data include: Subdivision: Subdivision Name, Subdivision Type.
-
Attributes now available with the centerline data include: Date Added, From Elevation, To Elevation, Left Address From,
Left Address To, Miles, Minutes, One-way, Right Address From, Right Address To, Road Name, Speed Limit, Street Class,
Street Status, Street Name, Street Type, Subclass, Suffix Direction.
Feature
Codes
-
Most data includes coded values that represent a more descriptive value in
another table. We refer to these as feature code tables. The
descriptions for these lookup values can be found by referencing the
AIMS Feature Code tables webpage.
