Simplified Access to Information


New Location Information Panel

To simplify information presentation, we redesigned the balloons to a new Panel and Cards Interface. The result is you no longer need to look on multiple balloons to find information, all of your layer information is on the Panel. In response to your feedback, we re-organized the Commands and they are located on the cards that match the command functionality.

Comparison Panel

Comparison Panel

GovClarity includes detailed national parcel and property data coverage, including recent sales transaction information. In this release, we've greatly expanded our sales transaction data across the country, bringing the total number of counties providing continuous sales transaction updates to over 2000. Working with a Fortune 500 partner, we process the latest sales transaction data as soon as it is available, thus enabling our clients to consistently access the most current information in GovClarity.

Panel Profiles & Card Designer

Panel Profiles are also new in this release. We reviewed the property information and in this release, introduce different Panels based on land use. If there's something missing that you need to see, that's where Card Designer will help. Many of our customers use GovClarity in different ways and we support that! Each user can customize the individual Panel Profiles, or share the map composition with those Panel Profiles. Check out our Panel Profiles and make GovClarity work for your unique needs today with Card Designer!

Tooltips

Card Designer

Tooltips make map navigation and decision making faster and easier. Hover your mouse over a parcel or other layer feature such as; a zoning polygon, a storm water line, or a business point to display the tooltip with details relevant to you. The information displayed in the Tooltip is layer specific and editable. Find information like never before with GovClarity's new Tooltips!

Feature Identify Updates

We've made it easier to identify properties and features on the map. You no longer need to set a layer "identifiable". All properties and features can be identified by selecting them on the map through the Tooltip, or by selecting More Results from the bottom of the tooltip. Also, the More Results link has been moved to the top of the Location Information Panel, so you can view other features in the area as well.

New About the Data Card

Presented as a card for every property, About the Data provides the following information:

  • Vintage of the parcel boundary data. This represents the currency, defined by the version date, of the property characteristics.
  • The Tax Roll date, which represents the county release date for the tax roll.
  • The most recent date of recorded property transactions for the county. This includes updated property records with new ownership, sales dates, and transaction details.
  • When property transactions updates from County Recorder offices were first captured into the Transaction History of properties in the County.
  • Our new Report data Issue command allows you to log a data issue with our support team without leaving the product.

Updated Results List Options

Results List Icons

You've asked for it and we're delivering. Prior to the implementation, the Results List had to be removed in order to see the properties that were covered by numbers. With this new implementation it can be done (while retaining the highlight) without removing the results list.

TimeView Has A New Home
