Learn how to quickly locate your ideal development site using the Parcel Filter.
The Parcel Filter helps you to narrow down vast areas by using selectable criteria to find suitable parcels for development. With Parcel Filter, you can refine your search by applying filters for the following options:
Once you're done filtering, you can save your search to easily locate the project location again.
Getting Started
Navigate to the Map from the top of any page and select Parcel Filter.
A toolbar will populate with the following options to refine your search:
Filtering by Boundary
Within the toolbar, select Boundary. Here you'll have the option to filter parcels within a KML, a point on the map, a polygon, a line, or selected map items. You can also include a radius around your project boundary. Once you've defined your boundary, select Apply.
Filtering by Proximity
After defining a boundary, click to Turn on parcel filtering. Next, select Proximity to determine how close you want your project site to be to transmission lines and/or substations. You can input a distance (miles) and min/max voltages. You can also check the boxes to add the Transmission Line or Substation map layer to your view. When you're finished, select Apply.
Filtering by Parcel Size
If you're looking for projects based on a specific amount of available acreage, you can further refine by parcel size. Click Size from the toolbar, then input minimum acres and/or maximum acres. When finished, select Apply.
Filtering by Owner
If you're looking to find parcels that have the same owner, you can filter by landowner name. You can also filter by parcel address or parcel number. When you're finished, click Apply. You can also combine adjacent parcels with the same owner by toggling Combine by Owner.
Filtering by Buildable Area
If you're looking for parcels that have a specific percentage or amount of buildable acreage, you can filter by Buildable Area by adding your Buildable Area Criteria (wetlands, slopes, protected waterways, etc.) After adding your constraints, select Save. When selecting Buildable Area Criteria, you can customize it to your project specifications or opt to use the default constraints (e.g. slope greater than 14%, medium and high developed areas, and wetlands). Additionally, you can input the minimum amount of acreage or the percentage of buildable area within a parcel. When finished, select Apply.
Additional Filtering Options
You can access additional filters by clicking More. From this page, you can look for parcels that are within energy communities, protected areas, cleanup sites, native sites, or low income communities. Click the caret to expand all the options and check the boxes next to your desired filters. When finished, select Apply.
Saving a Search
After finding the ideal project location, you can save it by selecting Save Search and adding a name. When finished, select Save. The pop-out on the right-side will highlight information about your site selection, including the concern breakout, key details, and parcel information. This information can be exported into a CSV formation by selecting the Export icon.
Once you have found the right collection of parcels for your project, you can export them to a Project to share with others or create a Transect Report.
