Steps

  1. Locate the target jurisdiction's public parcel FeatureServer (e.g., Colorado's statewide public parcels at gis.colorado.gov/public/rest/services/Address_and_Parcel/Colorado_Public_Parcels/FeatureServer/0, or the county assessor's own ArcGIS Server instance)
  2. Inspect the layer's fields via GET .../FeatureServer/0?f=json to confirm attribute names, since APN/owner/acreage field names vary by jurisdiction
  3. Query by location: GET .../FeatureServer/0/query?geometry=<lon>,<lat>&geometryType=esriGeometryPoint&inSR=4326&outFields=*&f=geojson to retrieve the parcel containing a point
  4. Or query by attribute: GET .../FeatureServer/0/query?where=APN='1234-56-789'&outFields=*&f=geojson to pull a known parcel directly
  5. Import the returned GeoJSON parcel boundary into CAD/GIS software as a reference layer for the retracement survey
