Address Web Service
The Address Web Service is an application developers tool. With the address web service you can validate an address or a full database of addresses against the county standard for addressing.
If an address is validated by the Address Web Service the X, and Y coordinates of
the location will be returned along with other information pertaining to the address. Having the X and Y coordinates
allows a developer to do on the fly geocoding with the Address Web Service.

CERI
AIMS and the Center for Economic Research Institute (CERI) partnered to create a
web application that uses GIS to aid in the creation of trade area profiles.
Trade area profiles are typically requested by developers and commercial real estate
agencies when they need to analyze consumer demographics when locating new businesses.
The CERI web mapping application allows users to interactively select an area
for analysis, then it calculates the number of commercial and residential units and the average appraised value for a single family home.
Collaborative Utility Exchange (CUE)
The CUE is a coordination effort between the utility
community of Johnson County & AIMS to produce a comprehensive data store and
portal for warehousing and viewing underground utility infrastructure. CUEView is a
secure internet application that provides a window into a repository of information
which includes land records, photography, plats, easements and most importantly
a collection of utility infrastructure data provided by participating utilities
within the County. Click

Johnson County Land Records (JCLR)
The Johnson County Land Records (JCLR) application
is a centralized portal for researching land record information in Johnson County
. It is an internet based application which allows access to three primary types
of information, land attribute data, spatial data, and scanned documents.
Inside JCLR users have the ability to create protest petition reports, view parcel
spatial history, create buffer maps, and a variety of other things. JCLR is
a secured internet application which is accessible through the myAIMS application
portal. More information is available by clicking

Crime Mapping
This application is an internet based crime mapping solution
created
for local police departments which provides access for both the public and
Leawood's internal staff to
query and view crime data on maps.
What is unique about this application is that it strays from the reliance on expensive
and cumbersome internet mapping packages and uses a freely available, open source
internet mapping platform from Google. Each entity can then add a
customized background, or "wrapper", to the application and integrate directly
into an existing website.
