Address Point File Updated on GeoStor

Updated County Address Points are now updated on GeoStor statewide. 

The address point file was updated to day to reflect updates to city coding as it relates to city annexations in the municipality field.  These were necessary for those address point records that are now located inside a city boundary due to annexations.  

And we also received an update from Van Buren County address points earlier this month also revised.

Since the end of October 2013, AGIO has processed over half a million new or revised address points in the file.  Not too shabby!


Arkansas is among 36 states in the U.S. with active address point file programs being led by the state.  To see a comprehensive look at how Arkansas stacks up visit the results from the National States Geographic Information Council here http://www.nsgic.org/state-address-survey-2013

We always thank the participating counties for sharing this important GIS resource and these past few days we have an urgent reminder of why we do this. 

Over the past eleven days the road centerline and address point file have been put to hard use by a crew of GIS Analysts who are supporting the Search and Rescue operations in Polk, Scott, and Montgomery counties for Arkansas Forestry Commission Pilot, Jake Harrell who failed to check in on January 31st.  The road centerlines and address points have played an important role in the decision making process.  Imagine how more difficult the operation would be if local GIS data was not available.

We are thankful our State has a deep history of creating data once and sharing it a bunch. So thank you Carroll and Greene County.  We always hope the data is not needed for this reason, but if that time comes, the data is accessible and ready.
