Cadastral

This is a really cool cadastral map created by Laura Chapman from FSU. She used esri's ArcGIS and with data from the property appraisers site created this really neat Existing Land Use Map. Each of the parcels when clicked on provide the owners name, size, value, and more. She said she vibrant colors of Van Gogh and other artist to give the map a fine art quality, which I really liked.
