Regrid in Detroit, a property data and location intelligence company, has partnered with Esri, a global leader in digital geography, on a series of parcel data innovations at regrid.com/esri.
As a backdrop, parcels cover the world in a quilt of property boundaries, but parcels have remained largely detached from the world of geographic data, limiting their usefulness, according to the two tech firms.
To advance greater efficiency, Regrid’s new Premium Parcel Data now carries demographic, environmental, elevation, and other geographic enrichments produced in partnership with Esri.
Going forward, more geographic layers will be added, opening a new world of geographic understanding at the parcel level.
The data is available for enterprise customers to use in their own maps and systems via API, bulk files, cloud, and Feature Service delivery into Esri software. It is also available in The Regrid Property App for iOS, Android, and the web.
Premium geographic enrichments build on Regrid’s innovations as Esri’s commercial partner for parcel data, including a free map of parcel boundaries covering 100 percent of the United States available through the ArcGIS Living Atlas of the World, along with an integrated Data Store for the ArcGIS user community.
“Regrid’s unparalleled expertise in parcel data is a perfect complement to premium data offerings,” says Lauri Young, senior product manager on Esri’s data and location services team. “By enriching their parcel boundaries with our curated demographics, elevation, and environmental data, we’re delivering the benefit of powerful insights and value to our mutual customers.”
By combining Regrid’s dataset with Esri’s mapping technology, “businesses have access to the best available parcel data matched to their own data in the world’s best GIS software,” according to the two companies.
“Regrid is dedicated to advancing the world’s understanding of parcels as the foundational unit of human geography,” says Jerry Paffendorf, CEO of Regrid. “There’s no one better to work with on that mission than Esri. We look forward to merging the world of geography writ large with how humans have subdivided it into discrete parcels.”
