Owner Name Search

This tool allows you to search by Property Owner Name and locate the property on the map.

Note: This tool is only available on the Municipal GIS secure site.

To use this tool:

• There are two selection methods used to search for a property by owner name: select the "Search By Text" link or the "Search by Geometry" link.

• Search By Text - Enter the Owner Name (i.e. Smith) in the "Owner Name" field.
• Select the "Search" button.
• Select the Owner Name description (i.e. Smith Junior Joe) in the "Results" section (beside the symbol highlighted in red).

OR

• Search by Geometry - Select one of the geometry tools (it is recommended to use the point tool for optimal results.(available tools: point, line, polyline, rectangle and circle)).

• Follow the instructions beside the mouse cursor in the map. This will highlight and display the property information in the "Results" section.

Note: the geometry tool is unselected once the intitial feature is selected in the map. Select the geometry tool again to select another property in the map.

For both search methods:

• The result(s) will be shown in the "Results" section.
• The result(s) are also displayed in the "Attributes" (information) pop up window by clicking on the selected property in the map.

Optional Actions:

• To Zoom/Zoom All:
• You can zoom to the selected property by selecting the highlighted feature on the map and selecting the "Zoom" button located in the "Attributes" (Information) pop up window.
• To view all property results in the map extent, click the "Zoom To All" link located in the "Results" section.

• To Export Results:
• If you wish to export the selected result to an Excel document in CSV format, click the "Export" button in the "Attributes" (information) pop up window.
• To export all results, select the "Export All" button located in the "Results" section.
• Save the file locally to your computer.

• To Clear:
• Clear the selected result(s) by selecting the "Clear" button.
• When the Search tool is closed (selecting the X button at the top right of the tool), the selected features will disappear from the map. However, the selected features are not cleared until the "Clear" button is selected.
