Parcels: Minnesota

Description:

This dataset is a compilation of county parcel data from Minnesota counties that have opted-in for their parcel data to be included in this dataset.It includes the following 29 counties that have opted-in as of the publication date of this dataset: Aitkin, Anoka, Benton, Carlton, Carver, Chisago, Clay, Cook, Crow Wing, Dakota, Douglas, Hennepin, Isanti, Itasca, Koochiching, Marshall, Mower, Norman, Polk, Ramsey, Rice, Saint Louis, Scott, Sherburne, Stearns, Traverse, Waseca, Washington, and Wilkin. If you represent a county not included in this dataset and would like to opt-in, please contact Ryan Stovern (stovernr@stlouiscountymn.gov), co-chair of the Minnesota Geospatial Advisory Council (GAC)'s Parcels and Land Records Committee's Open Data Subcommittee. County parcel data does not need to be in the GAC parcel data standard to be included. MnGeo will map the county fields to the GAC standard.County parcel data records have been assembled into a single dataset with a common coordinate system (UTM Zone 15) and common attribute schema. The county parcel data attributes have been mapped to the GAC's parcel data standard for Minnesota: https://www.mngeo.state.mn.us/committee/standards/parcel_attrib/parcel_attrib.htmlThis compiled parcel dataset was created using Python code developed by Minnesota state agency GIS professionals, and represents a best effort to map individual county source file attributes into the common attribute schema of the GAC parcel data standard. The attributes from counties are mapped to the most appropriate destination column. In some cases, the county source files included attributes that were not mapped to the GAC standard. Additionally, some county attribute fields were parsed and mapped to multiple GAC standard fields, such as a single line address. Each quarter, MnGeo provides a text file to counties that shows how county fields are mapped to the GAC standard. Additionally, this text file shows the fields that are not mapped to the standard and those that are parsed. If a county shares changes to how their data should be mapped, MnGeo updates the compilation. If you represent a county and would like to update how MnGeo is mapping your county attribute fields to this compiled dataset, please contact us.This dataset is a snapshot of parcel data, and the source date of the county data may vary. Users should consult County websites to see the most up-to-date and complete parcel data.
