North Kingstown, RI recently hired CAI Technologies to perform a digital conversion of their Tax Maps, implement our online GIS platform and configure GIS data synchronization with their OpenGov and Vision Appraisal applications. CAI began by first digitizing the Town’s existing PDF Tax Maps to overlay the most currently available orthoimagery. The newly created GIS data was then linked with the Town’s Vision Assessment database. Following the conversion, CAI setup and configured AxisGIS for the Town. AxisGIS is an easy to use yet powerful online mapping service developed/hosted by CAI and is currently contracted in over 500 communities. AxisGIS will make the Town’s map/GIS layers and Vision Assessment data available to Staff and the public through a powerful and searchable mapping interface. CAI shall continue updating the GIS data on a regular basis as the Town provides deeds/plans for new parcel splits. CAI also configured parcel synching capabilities from AxisGIS to the Town’s ArcGIS Online account to support creation of a REST service required for their OpenGov installation.
