The GEO-Jobe Blog

GEO-Jobe GIS is pleased to call Putnam County, TN our newest GEOpowered interactive mapping client.  Rhonda Chaffin, Putnam County Assessor of Property, and her staff provided us with their requirements and data and the development team at GEO-Jobe went to work.  The result is a very fast and efficient web-based alternative to calling or visiting the Assessor’s office for basic property related information.  On the Putnam County GEOpowered site you’ll be able to search via the interactive map using standard tools like zoom and pan, plus you’ll have full text search capabilities of Parcel ID, Owner Name, Address, Subdivision, and more.

The beauty of GEOpowered is in its non-GIS approach from a user’s perspective.  Most people accessing our GEOpowered client sites are non-GIS professionals who only want to get in and get out with up to date property information.  This makes GEOpowered a superior decision support tool.  With more to do and less people to do it within the Putnam County Assessor’s office, this means fewer office requests for basic information, freeing up Putnam County staff to stay focused on appraisals and administration of property data.  Plus, GEO-Jobe is implementing geodatabase data replication between the county and our secure data center making the update process seamless and automated on a nightly basis.

The GEO-Jobe staff are very professional. We have found turn around time on questions or data change request is very fast and effecient. They have been most helpful in explaining “computer-gis” talk to us in terms we can use and understand. I am very proud to be working with them.  - Rhonda L. Chaffin, Putnam County TN Assessor of Property
