Geographic Information Systems (GIS)

GIS Map

Welcome to Okaloosa County Enterprise GIS

The GIS Division is responsible for managing all Geographic Information Systems (GIS) related database activities for the County.

 

Mission Statement

The purpose of the GIS Division is to define, design and deliver an organized, shared geospatial-centric information infrastructure that enables our county to manage data and resources using a cost-effective county-wide enterprise approach.

 

Strategic Goal

The GIS Division strives to provide robust user-friendly access to “on-demand” apps, maps, and geospatial data for the citizens of Okaloosa County and to support those government services which rely on this information.

 

The GIS Division is composed of 2 groups:

 

GIS Services Group:

Coordinates GIS data and map production, maintenance, analysis, training and special projects.
