St. Charles, Illinois¾Cleveland County, located in central Oklahoma, has selected The Sidwell Company of St. Charles, Illinois, to convert their cadastral-based GIS data to ESRI’s ArcGIS® Geodatabase platform and to provide an ESRI-based software solution for maintaining the cadastral GIS. Sidwell—a provider of geographic information systems, aerial photography, cadastral mapping and website provision services—will convert Cleveland County’s current cadastral data into an enterprise Geodatabase that utilizes the cadastral tag data model.  The company will perform design file data scrubbing services, conflation of coincident boundary lines and geospatial referencing of the mapping data to the County’s orthophotography. Cleveland County’s parcel number inventory will be imported into Parcel Builder-Administrator™, which will enable the County to link parcel numbers directly to the GIS, thereby making them available for integration with tax and CAMA applications and for enhanced workflows.

Cleveland County will receive Sidwell’s Parcel Builder™ integrated software suite for maintaining the converted data, as well as several hours of customized training on how to maximize use of this powerful mapping productivity toolkit. The County is also contracting with Sidwell to provide mapping services to prepare the cadastral database for plotting, including the creation of map indexes, templates and symbology style sets that are designed for use with the Parcel Builder-MapPlotter™ software module.
