Abstract: THIS LAYER IS CURRENTLY BETA.This dataset provides approximate point locations and associated public information collected by the Department of Taxes under 32 V.S.A. § 9606 for all property transferred by deed in Vermont beginning in January 2019 through present. The layer is updated weekly. In addition to the data fields provided by the Department of Taxes, VCGI has added the latitude, longitude, standardized town name (based on the townCode), town GEOID, and Match Method (see below). Questions about property transfer data can be directed to the Department of Taxes at tax.rett@vermont.gov.Multiple methods are used to geocode property locations, indicated in the 'MatchMethod' field and prioritized in the following order:Geocoded using the VCGI ESITE Geocoder with the property street and city. MatchMethod = Property Address (ESITE). If unmatched:Match on SPAN in the E911 Site Locations layer; geocode using the location of the ESITE. MatchMethod = SPAN (ESITE). If unmatched:Geocode using the VCGI Composite Geocoder with the property street and city. MatchMethod = Property Address (Composite). If unmatched:Match on the SPAN in the Standardized Parcel Data layer; geocode based on a point located within the parcel polygon. While the point will fall within the correct parcel it may still be distant from the actual property, particularly in large parcels, and is less precise than the methods above. MatchMethod = SPAN (Parcel centroid).Locations are approximate, and those geocoded using the Property Address (Composite) and SPAN (Parcel centroid) methods in particular are less precise. Records that could not be geocoded using the above methods, often because of an incomplete, missing, or otherwise invalid SPAN and/or property address, are retained in the table but do not include geometry or coordinates. For these records, MatchMethod = Unmatched.Data download limitationVCGI recommends the use of feature services and geodatabase downloads when possible. Please note that if downloading the data as a shapefile the entries in the following fields may be truncated due to character limits:prTxExDesc (property tax exemption as described under32 V.S.A. § 9603)LGTExDesc (land gain exemption description)addSellNam (additional seller names from PTT175)addSellLoc (additional seller locations from PTT175)addBuyrNam (additional buyer names from PTT175)addBuyrLoc (additional buyer locations from PTT175)
Purpose: This dataset provides approximate point locations and associated public information collected by the Department of Taxes under 32 V.S.A. § 9606 for all property transferred by deed in Vermont beginning in January 2019 through present.
