When I am using iMAP or Parcel Viewer, am I viewing official Assessors data?
No. Only the data that resides in the database on the Department of Assessments computer server is considered official. Once the Assessor’s office downloads the data to CD for distribution to other agencies (such as the KCGIS Center) any downloaded version becomes a static product that will become out of date as soon as the master database is revised, thus the accuracy of such data cannot be guaranteed. The GIS Center receives a monthly extract of the Assessors database on CD, and we update the tables used by Parcel Viewer and iMap during the first week of each month.
