These parcel boundaries represent legal descriptions of property ownership, as recorded in various public documents in the local jurisdiction. The boundaries are intended for cartographic use and spatial analysis only, and not for use as legal descriptions or property surveys. Tax parcel boundaries have not been edge-matched across municipal boundaries.

The Virginia Geographic Information Network (VGIN) has coordinated the development and maintenance of a statewide Parcels data layer in conjunction with local governments across the Commonwealth. The Virginia Parcel dataset is aggregated as part of the VGIN Local Government Data Call update cycle. Localities are encouraged to submit data bi-annually and are included into the parcel dataset with their most recent geography.Attributes for these Virginia parcels are limited to locality identification and parcel id. Tax parcel boundaries have not been edge-matched across municipal boundaries but they are associated by local government FIPS and locality name.The boundaries are intended for cartographic use and spatial analysis only, and not for use as legal descriptions or property surveys. Not all localities within the Commonwealth of Virginia have confirmed a digital record for parcel geography or submit data with a bi-annual frequency.GDB Version: ArcGIS Pro 3.3Additional Resources:Shapefile DownloadREST EndpointVirginia Parcels: Local Schema Tables

This application shows general City information such as the locations of fire stations and government services, and also tax information for all the parcels located in the City of Winchester, Virginia.

Parcel boundary lines are shown from 9k and beyond to indicate the property lines and offer the GPIN and assoicated attributes.

Below is a quick rundown of the tools available in the web map! The first new thing you may notice is the ability to search from in the splash window that appears. This hopefully reduces the number of clicks people will need to get to their information. There's the same search bar in the upper left once you click out of the splash screen. The Query tool has existed in this form on the sub-maps, but now it is here with all the layers. I want to highlight "Search by Legal Description" as a nifty way to find parcels associated with a specific subdivision. I also want to highlight the "find tax parcels/addresses within specified distance" queries. Those let you select every tax parcel or address within a feature you draw (a point, line, or polygon). This is good for finding what properties within a distance need to be notified of something. That can then be exported as an Excel table (csv). This can also help you identify whether something falls within certain setbacks. The Basemaps is the same as it was before. I haven't gotten the Virginia Geographic Information Network imagery from 2017 and 2021 to successfully appear here, but you can find that in the map layers at the bottom. We have a lot of data layers! I currently have the default as every group expanded out, so you can scroll and see all the layers, but you can go through and click to collapse any groups you don't want expanded. Okay, the select tool is super cool, and lets you really dive into some fun GIS attribute querying! As an example, you can select all the FEMA Flood Zones that are AO, then select all the tax parcels that are affected by (intersect) those AO zones! These results can also be exported into an Excel table. A great deal of GIS analysis is possible just using Select by Attributes and Select by Location, so this tool really ramps up the power of the web map so it can do some of what the desktop GIS software can do! Continuing our tour of the tools, we come to the coordinates tool. This one also existed already in the sub-maps, but is now with all the layers. Unfortunately, the tool is a little annoying, and won't retain my defaults. You have to click the little plus sign target thing, then you can click on the map to get the coordinates. The coordinate system defaults to WGS 1984 Web Mercator (the same thing Google Maps uses), but much of our data uses NAD 1983 State Plane Virginia South, so you can click the dropdown arrow to the right to select either one. Exciting news related to this: in 2026 they are releasing the new coordinate system on which they've been working! It should make the data in GIS more closely align with features in reality, but you will not need to change any of the ways you interact with the data. The next tool is the Elevation Profile tool. It's very nifty! You can draw a profile to see how the elevation changes, and as you move your cursor along the graph, it shows where along your transect you are! It helps explain some of the floodplain and sea level rise boundaries. You know the measure tool well, but this one retains the defaults in feet and acres, which is very exciting! No more having to change the units every time you want to measure (unless you want other than feet and acres). The draw tool is our penultimate stop on the tour! It is largely the same as what existed on the old public web map, so I shan't delve into it here. When you draw a feature now though, it appears in the layers tab (until you close the map), which can let you toggle the drawing on and off to work with what is beneath it. It can help as you plan in where you might want to put new constructions. The print tool is also largely the same, but I've been finding the tool in this new Experience Builder format is less buggy than the one in the retired Web App Builder that made the old Public Web Map.

City Services provides data on nearby City amenities and services and the Open Data Portal allows you to download 100's of datasets, layers, and tables.

Note: this layer's data is continuously updated via map service connections to our enterprise geodatabase. This item's "date updated" attribute does not reflect the data within.This data layer contains polygon features representing the approximate size and location of parcels located within Prince William County, Virginia. It was created to provide basic information regarding property location and boundaries, and is used as a graphical representation of legally recorded deed and plat documents for properties. Users should be aware that this data does not represent legal property boundary descriptions, nor is it suitable for boundary determination of individual parcels. The layer was derived from a variety of source maps including: mylar county parcel maps, plats of surveys, deed descriptions, subdivision maps, and highway right-of-way plats. These source materials were of several different scales and were from dates ranging from the early 1900's to the present. The source of each parcel is described in the Source attribute field.Parcel ownership information included in this layer is provided by the Office of Real Estate Assessments from their Real Estate Assessments database. This includes all real properties except public service properties (public roads, operating railroads, interstate pipelines, and public utilities), is assessed annually by the Real Estate Assessments Office, This information is provided nightly and joined to the GIS parcel boundaries by the GPIN.

This data shows the parcel boundaries of the properties located within the City of Winchester, Virginia with real estate assessment information attached. Real estate information is managed and maintained by the City's Commissioner of the Revenue and is joined to the parcel file via the record number.

Source geologic maps and data used to complete this GRI digital dataset were provided by the following: Virginia Division of Geology and Mineral Resources. Detailed information concerning the sources used and their contribution the GRI product are listed in the Source Citation section(s) of this metadata record (svpn_geology_metadata.txt or svpn_geology_metadata_faq.pdf). Users of this data are cautioned about the locational accuracy of features within this dataset. Based on the source map scale of 1:24,000 and United States National Map Accuracy Standards features are within (horizontally) 12.2 meters or 40 feet of their actual _location as presented by this dataset. Users of this data should thus not assume the _location of features is exactly where they are portrayed in ArcGIS, QGIS or other software used to display this dataset. All GIS and ancillary tables were produced as per the NPS GRI Geology-GIS Geodatabase Data Model v. 2.3. (available at: https://www.nps.gov/articles/gri-geodatabase-model.htm).
