Acquire Method: | After sending initial e-mail, GIS manager contacted us and directed us to the on-line location to download the parcel shapefile. Then, we contacted the Assessor's office and were e-mailed a Request for Public Records document and a bill for $75. After mailing the request and check to the Assessor's office, we received a CD with the tabular assessor data. Terms of Use: http://www.skagitcounty.net/GIS/Documents/Misc/DDRF%20GI.pdf |

Database Schema
The normalized Statewide Parcel Database consists of multiple related tables, relationship classes and lookup tables. Detailed information about the database schema can be found on the technical documentation page.
QA/QC
QA/QC Process Description
- While processing and normalizing the data for each county to a standardized statewide dataset, five possible procedures could have been applied: Removing Duplicate Parcels, Flattening Stacked Parcels, Creating Multipart Parcels, Removing Duplicate Names, and Removing Duplicate Taxrolls.
- The data for each county was tested to see whether or not these five procedures were applied. For each of these procedures applied in a county, one test parcel to which a process was applied was selected and tested to ensure the procedure was applied correctly.
- A parcel to which none of the procedures was applied was also tested to make sure all of the normalized attributes in the original data were correctly transferred to the final dataset.
- It is therefore possible that up to six data quality tests were performed for each county.
QA/QC Procedure Descriptions
The following five Procedures were performed in this order on the data for each county.- Removing Duplicate Parcels (PARCELS:DUPLICATE): There are two or more polygons representing a single parcel in the original data. They have the same geometry and identical attribute information. These are assumed to be multiple copies of the same parcel, and so duplicates are removed leaving a single polygon, and single set of attribute information in the final database. This flag tells how many duplicates of the parcel were in the original data.
- Flattening Stacked Parcels (PARCELS:FLATTENED): There are two or more polygons representing a parcel in the original data, however, while sharing the same geometry, they have different attributes. These are assumed to be multiple owners for the same parcel. The polygon only needs to be in the final database a single time, but all original attribute information for the different owners needs to be retained. This flag tells how many stacked polygons there were in the original data for each parcel.
- Creating Multipart Parcels (PARCELS:AGGREGATED): There are two or more polygons in the original data with different geometries but, identical attribute information. It is assumed that these parcels are all owned by the same owner. The original polygons are all retained as a single, multipart polygon, but duplicate versions of the attributes are removed. Only a single copy of the attribute information is needed in the final database. This flag tells how many parcels were aggregated into each multipart polygon.
- Removing Duplicate Taxrolls (TAXROLL:FLATTENED): Two or more parcels in a county have identical taxroll attributes. These attributes only need to be in the final database a single time. This flag records how many of the original parcels shared each set of taxroll attributes.
- Removing Duplicate Names (NAMES:FLATTENED): Two or more parcels in a county have the same name attributes in the original data. These attributes only need to be in the final database a single time. This flag records how many of the original parcels shared each set of name attributes.

Data Normalization, Integration and Quality Control Notes
Integration Date: | 2010-10-25 |
Integration Notes: | The file 'AssessorData.txt' has newLine characters in the Legal Description field causing errors while importing it. The legal description was split onto multiple lines when opened, which meant that many lines did not have the proper number of fields, and could not be imported properly. This occurred for 21 parcels, those with Parcel IDs: P104916, P15932, P15936, P16326, P17767, P21582, P29911, P31785, P35722, P36212, P39548, P41532, P52404, P57720, P57803, P58206, P60794, P68412, P70580, P73557, P74171. A perl script was written to remove the newLines and combine the split lines back together into a single line. The newLine characters were replaced with '~~' The repaired source data file is called 'AssessorData_Repaired.txt' New attributes in AssessorData.txt for 2010: AID, Inactive Date, Current Use Adjustment, Senior Exemption Adjustment. Attributes from 2009 that are not in the 2010 data: AG-MARKET-VALUE, ID, LEASE-HOLD-VALUE, MAIN-SEGMENT-DESIG. Attributes that changed names between 2009 and 2010: ACCOUNT-NO --> Account Number, NO-OF-BEDROOMS --> Number of Bedrooms, NO-OF-ROOMS --> Number of Rooms, OLD-SITUS-CSZ --> Old City State Zip, OLD-SITUS-STREET-NAME --> Old Street Name, OLD-SITUS-STREET-NUMBER --> Old Street Number, SITUS-CSZ --> Situs City State Zip, TOT-MARKET-VALUE --> Total Market Value. All attributes appear to have changed from all caps with dashes (CAP-CAP) to first letter capitalized with spaces (Upper Upper). ------------------------------ 1 parcel record in the shapefile with Shape_area and Shape_len values of 0, and no PARCELID value was not added to the database. Two parcels with PARCELID value: P65667 were aggregated, but overlap one another. The overlapping area was removed because multipart polygons cannot overlap themselves. Two parcels, one with PARCELID value: P45789, and one with no PARCELID value (OBJECTID: 564355, FID: 80356, Shape_area: 1352312.86021, Shape_len: 58652.697378) were self-intersecting when run through the Check Geometry tool in ArcToolbox. These two parcels were repaired using the Repair Geometry tool. |

QAQC Notes: | PolyID 429000031243 - matches Skagit Co website, and also matches source data file "AssessorData.txt". PolyID 429000032409 - matches source data file "AssessorData.txt". Website data values have changed, but all other data are the same. PolyID 429000060224 - matches website data and source file data. |
