Major Map Improvement With The Addition of Parcel Boundaries

15th April 2008 | Category: Maps

We’ve added parcel boundaries to our map based search so you can now see the exact lot size for any listed property. This is the most comprehensive boundary data set available anywhere, with over 500 counties and 80 million parcels. If your area isn’t covered yet, the parcel data is expected to grow to encompass 1000 counties and over 100 million parcels.

We have the top four zoom levels in satellite or hybrid mode covered, representing hundreds of millions of tiles. If you haven’t noticed, Google Maps has different zoom levels depending on what view mode you’re in. To get the most out of the parcel boundaries, it’s best to use satellite or hybrid view as this gives you the highest zoom capability.

Update: You can read more about this enhancement in the Parcel Boundary Press Release.
