Any android apps for navigating areas, showing the land parcel boundaries and who owns them?
The county government site lists the info, but it would be a lot easier to be able to access the info while on the go.

wish my county would list the info for free... gotta go to the stupid office to get any information.
no apps that I currently know of. no.

I saw a program for garmin, but they wanted like $100 for it...if I can't find anything, I'm just going to get some good prints from google maps and make an overlay for the approximate plot areas
the larger cities have the info, but the smaller cities and townships just don't have the resources for it...
there are a number of trusts that own huge chunks of land next to a nearby river, but luckily there are strips of land owned by the county and utility company that cut through the lots....it's nearly all forested areas except for where it's been cleared for power lines
That sort of stuff is pretty much GIS domain. I've never heard of an application that does it. That doesn't mean it doesn't exist though.
fucking download the data sets and program the app yourself you lazy dick

let me learn how to program first?
in MA the state geographical survey keeps an online map of the entire with all the property lines superimposed over it. you can choose a bunch of different basemaps for it - plain, bing, google, satellites, terrair, etc. it's cooll beans!

These day most counties have this available online for anyone to access. In most cases it's basically a dumbed down "gis viewer" but anyone can go online and look at them.
Takes a little poking around to get the info/view you may want but it's all there

HOw about,.... open the government website on your phone while you're on the go?
Profit?

easier said than done
it's not as if there are curbs with house numbers painted on them, you pretty much have to translate the info to an aerial map and approximate where the property lines are....something that's virtually impossible on a phone
>>751278
all you have to do on your phone is open the map view like in >>750189
or>>749938
then relate what you see on the map to what you see on the ground around you. You should be able to recognise roads, fence lines, tree lines and other landmarks enough to get a pretty damn good estimation of where you are and with the county GIS property viewer it will tell you who owns it.
its basic orienteering.
Other method is-
>Prior to your field visit, plan where you are going
>use your comp at home to view the property on the county property viewer
>get the image with the info you want on screen
>print a copy of the map with your printer
>take map with you into the field
>Once in the field, open your GPS map function on your phone
>see where you are in real time.
>compare this to what you see on the map
orienteer your way to your points of interest

You just need to learn to use maps, together with the gps on your phone.
it's not that hard.
>>751278
Use Google maps and tap on the house. Learn to use your phone. You can view gis maps online. God, it's like you want us to walk beside you and tell you where to sleep.
I have an app for my country, great stuff
>open web browser
