PGC Surface Land Ownership Data

PGC Surface Land Ownership Data represents the largest geographic coverage of digitally mapped surface owner property commercially available.  Data attributes may include Owner Name, Address, Lat/Long Polygon Centroid, and APN# (Assessor Property Number).   Also known as parcel data or cadastral data, PGC Surface Land Ownership Data is helpful in all phases of land work, exploration, and production. Customers can save countless hours of land record research and digitizing.  PGC Surface Land Ownership Data is an excellent complement to PGC National Land Grid and PGC Lease Map Data since it allows customers to see firsthand the private landownership information that surrounds the BLM and State Lands leases. PGC Surface Land Ownership Data is also especially useful when doing projects in Texas or the Appalachian Basin, since in these regions the majority of the land is private.  Data is typically provided ESRI® Shape File format, but we can customizations can be made to suit specific requests.

Can I get this information directly from the County Assessor?

A client recently needed 4 contiguous counties of land ownership in Texas. He had called all four county offices, and one county office had no digital information, the second county office had an AutoCad file that was not georeferenced, the third county office had GIS data available for a cost, and the fourth county office had a free GIS dataset. The customer purchased all 4 counties from us because we had complete coverage, the data was available in GIS format with universally consistent attributes, and we had statistics about what the datasets contained. Our cost are fair and reasonable because it is based on the difficulty of developing or acquiring the data.
