This file contains points, which represent the location of site addresses in Okaloosa County. These site address points also show their exact location on the surface of the earth. Each point contains address information and their X and Y coordinate in State Plane. In the case of multi-floor structures (such as apartments or condominiums), these areas will have points snapped on top each other. You can distinguish these in a selection set by the FL or floor. Each point also contains the parcel identification number and the mailing address to the parcel. Okaloosa County GIS Division divided the county into 4 phases. Purpose for rdsmn.pat To enable all addresses within Okaloosa County to be located using a single house with zone address style of geocoding. Features in this file are represented by a single house number and zone zip code. No ranges are used. This will allow for accurate address matching and to the exact location on the surface of the earth. For example, an address of 49 Main Street might be addressed in two locations within Okaloosa County; 49 Main Street, Crestview, 32539 and 49 Main Street, Niceville, 32578. However, because the zone or zip code is different for each address, it will locate the correct address based on the zone. |
