A geodatabase with parcel boundaries for 51 (out of 58) counties in the State of California. The original target was to collect data for the close of the 2013 fiscal year. As the collection progressed, it became clear that holding to that time standard was not practical. Out of expediency, the date requirement was relaxed, and the currently available dataset was collected for a majority of the counties. Most of these were distributed with minimal metadata.

The table "ParcelInfo" includes the data that the data came into our possession, and our best estimate of the last time the parcel dataset was updated by the original source. Data sets listed as "Downloaded from" were downloaded from a publicly accessible web or FTP site from the county. Other data sets were provided directly to us by the county, though many of them may also be available for direct download.

These data have been reprojected to California Albers NAD84, but have not been checked for topology, or aligned to county boundaries in any way.

Tulare County's dataset arrived with an undefined projection and was identified as being California State Plane NAD83 (US Feet) and was assigned by ICE as that projection prior to reprojection.

Kings County's dataset was delivered as individual shapefiles for each of the 50 assessor's books maintained at the county. These were merged to a single feature class prior to importing to the database.

The attribute tables were standardized and truncated to include only a PARNO (APN). The format of these fields has been left identical to the original dataset. The Data Interoperablity Extension ETL tool used in this process is included in the zip file.

Where provided by the original data sources, metadata for the original data has been maintained.

Please note that the attribute table structure changes were made at ICE, UC Davis, not at the original data sources.
