A geographic information system (GIS) is a system that allows the Town to create, manage, analyze and map spatial data. GIS connects data to a map; integrating location data with many forms of descriptive information (i.e. where things are located, and what the conditions are like). GIS provides the Town with a tool to better understand landscape and infrastructure patterns, relationships and geographic context. Another benefit of GIS includes improved (visual) communication with the public on planning decisions.

Map Requests

The Town has access to third-party, and possess our own spatial data. With our GIS, the Town can create maps at the request of members of the public or local organizations. There are no fees for creating maps, and map printing fees are outlined below – customers can choose to print on Plain or Satin Poster Paper.

MuniSight Guest

The Town has a public access GIS called MuniSight. This GIS can be used by the public [at no costs] to access information about properties within High Level, including Development Permits, lot dimensions, land use zoning, property assessment, annual taxes, photos of the parcel and existing building(s) and more.
