LA County Assessor Maps Have Moved

Posted on by

Just an FYI to all City GIS staff in LA County.  If you have GIS applications or data that have links to the LA County Assessor maps, you might find them broken now.  It looks like LA County has moved the links since they updated their Property Assessment Information System application here.

For example, this old PDF link:
http://maps.assessor.lacounty.gov/mapping/viewAssessorMapPDF.asp?val=2438-018

has been replaced with this new one:
http://maps.assessor.lacounty.gov/Geocortex/Essentials/REST/sites/PAIS/VirtualDirectory/AssessorMaps/ViewMap.html?val=2438-018

Burbank has a few apps that are broken now.  I bet you do too!  -mike

Thanks to all that attended.  It was a full house and a great meeting. Thanks to Mark Greninger at LA County for organizing the meeting and to LA County Public Works for hosting the location. The talk by Scott Gregory from the State of California and the Q&A was very interesting. Near the end of the meeting, Aerospace Corporation demonstrated their UAS. After some technical issues getting it started, they were able to get it off the ground and fly around in the courtyard.

Links to presentation documents should be available soon on the SoCalGIS Meetings page.
