One mapping foundation, five module maps

Configure a base map, import your own GeoJSON layers, match parcels to properties by roll number, and every module map in the platform reads from the same foundation.

Parcels themed by arrears status, with the utility service overlay switched on.

Why it matters

Maps inside the work, not in a separate system

Configure a base map once, import your GeoJSON layers, match parcels to properties by roll number, and every module map reads from the same foundation. Staff never leave the screen they were already working in.

5

Module maps on one foundation

7

Feature types carrying geometry

4

Layer kinds: parcel, zoning, ward, custom

3

Parcel themes plus a utility overlay

Your own tile service

Point at your provincial ortho or parcel service, or use the free government-hosted Canadian base map that ships as the default.

Parcels matched by roll number

Nominate the GeoJSON field holding the roll number and matching runs against your register, with an unmatched list and a manual link dialog to close the gaps.

Themes that answer questions

Parcels by arrears status, assessment class or exemption with a utility overlay, and the asset network themed by condition or category.

Spatial queries doing real work

Nearest and bounding-box lookups power 311 duplicate detection, permit location picking, inspection day routing and linear asset length.

Foundation

One base map and your own layers

Start from a free government-hosted Canadian base map, or point at your own provincial ortho or parcel tile service.

Imported layers, feature counts and the unmatched-parcels list that closes the gaps.

Map settings. XYZ tile URL, attribution text, default latitude and longitude, and a default zoom from 1 to 19. The shipped default is a free, government-hosted Canadian base map.

Reference layers. Import a GeoJSON file as a named layer of kind parcel, zoning, ward or custom. Imports can be cancelled mid-run, and layers can be deleted.

Parcel matching. A parcel layer is matched to properties on a nominated GeoJSON property containing the roll number. The layer view then shows the feature count and an unmatched-parcels list, with a manual link-parcel-to-property dialog searching by roll number or address.

Geometry per feature. Seven feature types carry geometry, each gated on its own module: property units, assets, bylaw complaints, bylaw infractions, service requests, cemetery plots and cemetery sections.

Spatial queries. A nearest lookup and a bounding-box features query power map interaction, which is what makes duplicate detection on 311 reports and location picking on permits work.

Also included

XYZ tile URL Attribution Default centre and zoom Unmatched parcels list Manual parcel linking
Module maps

Five maps, each inside the module that needs it

Each map is a working screen inside its module, not a separate GIS product staff have to learn.

Asset Management › Asset Map

The asset network themed by condition, with length derived from the drawn line.

Bulk location management. A property locations manager lists properties needing a location, already located, or all, accepting latitude and longitude entry or map placement.

Gated per module. Each map appears only when both GIS and its own module are licensed, so a municipality without Utilities never sees the utility overlay.

Map Where it lives What it does
Parcel map Property Tax Three themes covering arrears status, assessment class and exemption, plus a utility-service overlay. Geometry comes from an imported parcel layer or per-unit drawn geometry
Asset network map Asset Management Themed by condition or category, with a geometry editor and a Set asset length from the drawn line action that computes a linear asset’s length from its geometry
Permit map Permits & Licensing All permits plotted, with a location picker to set or correct a permit’s coordinates
Enforcement map Bylaws and Permits Bylaw complaints and infractions plotted geographically. One shared screen reachable from either menu
Cemetery map Citizen Services Sections and plots with a section filter, a generate-grid tool that creates a plot grid from a section’s geometry, and the ability to merge adjacent plot cells into one larger plot

Questions

GIS and mapping questions

Not for the workflows in the platform. The mapping layer is a foundation inside Awditify: you configure a base map, import GeoJSON layers and match parcels to properties, and the module maps read from it. If your municipality already runs a provincial ortho or parcel tile service, you point the base map at that instead of the default.

You nominate the GeoJSON property that contains the roll number when importing a parcel layer, and matching runs against your property register. The layer view then lists unmatched parcels, and a manual link dialog lets you attach a parcel to a property by searching roll number or address.

Properties can still carry a location. The property record holds latitude and longitude, an Edit location action opens a map picker, and a bulk property locations manager lists which properties still need one. Per-unit drawn geometry also works as a source for the parcel map.

Yes. The nearest lookup and bounding-box query behind the map drive duplicate detection on public 311 reports, location picking on permits, day routing for inspections, and the length calculation on linear assets.

GIS and mapping is included in the standard municipal tier alongside communications and alerts, the citizen portal and public 311. Details are on the pricing page.

Next step

Bring a parcel layer and see it matched

Send a GeoJSON export from your existing GIS. We will import it, match it to a property register and show the arrears theme running over it.
