Your County Tax and Geographic Information System (GIS)
Welcome to CharlotteHomeSite.com's link site to area county tax and Geographic Information System (GIS) websites. The primary purpose of this site is to give the user access to county GIS and real estate websites, but inorder to better serve you, the customer, I have added links to county websites too. (County websites are smaller and located below the county GIS link.)
This site is designed to help you quickly and easily locate county GIS maps and associated real estate information. This web page will provide you with the links required to access public real estate information. Most site maps have been prepared for the real property inventory within their respective county. They are compiled from recorded deeds, survey plats, and other public records and data. Users of these maps are notified that the public primary information sources should be consulted for verification of the information contained on these maps.

Simply put, a GIS combines layers of information about a place to give you a better understanding of that place. What layers of information you combine depends on your purpose-finding the best location for a new store, analyzing environmental damage, viewing similar crimes in a city to detect a pattern, and so on. This site will educate you about the many uses of GIS websites, and how you can make better use of the information available to you on these sites.
The old adage "better information leads to better decisions" is true for GIS. A GIS is not just an automated decision making system but a tool to query, analyze, and map data in support of the decision making process.
For example, GIS can be used to help reach a decision about the location of a new housing development that has minimal environmental impact, is located in a low-risk area, and is close to a population center. The information can be presented succinctly and clearly in the form of a map and accompanying report, allowing decision makers to focus on the real issues rather than trying to understand the data. Because GIS products can be produced quickly, multiple scenarios can be evaluated efficiently and effectively.
