Parcel Data for State of Florida

I have been sitting on this tidbit for almost a year. I had been waiting to see if it would show up on another blog or news site.

For several years Florida Department of Revenue has been requiring county property appraiser’s to submit their digital data of property records and valuations as part of their Certified Tax Roll.

In the first quarter of 2006, FDOR has been offering the same digital data as a shapefile with some of the record data in txt format. There is a very modest charge for the data on DVD’s (less than $100). I was told that the department is looking for an online distribution point that would be cost free.

However it is not the complete state coverage. Thirteen counties did not give their permission for FDOR to distribute their portion.

I was originally informed of this decision by a FDOR representative, and verified through the head of the GIS division and two other employees.
