January 10, 2022, Mill Valley California. Getting ready for our next call with Open Geospatial Consortium this week, during a consultation with Esri, two questions loomed large.
QUESTION 1: So what is the big deal?
A national indexing field, added to every land related database, enables the databases to be interfaced on-the-fly instead of mucking about [OGC Term]. Sounds nice, but how can this be put to use in an application?
ANSWER. Showcased in a recent newsletter, a ParcelAtlas Subscriber, Actovia Commercial Mortgage & Real Estate Intelligence, offered this statement.
“It is a huge challenge to continuously enable our Subscribers INSTANT access the most accurate content reflecting commercial & real estate property, ownership and mortgage data. Every one of these national databases has had its own proprietary indexing, no two alike. How do we do it now? Proprietary normalized indexing, with lots of development hours followed by eternal surveillance to fix mishaps. All this goes away with NPN National Adoption. No matter how stellar our real estate intelligence services are, NPNs transform our ability to mix and match content from MANY sources.”
QUESTION 2: Who are the possible beneficiaries of Universal NPN Compliance
Globally unique persistent [never ending] IDs assigned to every USA parcel?
ANSWER. Beneficiaries of reduced risk and greater analytical rigor introduced by Universal NPN Compliance include organizations working with:
-Deeds
-Disaster Response
-Dispatch
-Engineering Project Management
-Enterprise Zone Management
-FEMA Property Rights Entitlement
-Fines
-Incident Reports
-Leans

WHAT DOES THIS MEAN TO YOU?
and how can you get in on the profit storm ahead between now when there are no NPNs ANYWHERE and in a few years from now when they are EVERWHERE! – NPNs assigned EVERYWHERE, introducing never-before common national indexing of all land records.
ParcelAtlas’ NPN ASSIGNMENT SERVICE, currently considered for OGC International Certification Standard, has been operational for years, ready to enable you to create this market regionally or nationally NOW.
