Geographical Information System (GIS)

Map the County! A Geographical Information System provides a powerful way to represent on a map what is shown on the landscape. There are challenges in terms of accuracy, but for a general review of the many features (roads, streams, zoning, etc.) GIS is very powerful. For more accurate detail of parcel boundaries, elevation, etc. a professional survey completed by a Licensed Surveyor would be recommended. GIS is much more powerful than merely a map making tool. Data analysis can be completed quickly and accurately. And so with good base data one can compare, query and select various features of the data to answer numerous questions. The results of the answers can be shown visually in tables or maps.

Pre Made GIS Maps

Umatilla County has many different features in relation to land use, roads, water bodies, terrain, etc. These features are represented by digital data that can be layered together to show on paper what is on the ground in the real world. Of course, the accuracy can be questioned at times but for a close representation a paper map created using GIS (geographical information) is valuable.

The following is a listing of maps that are already made and can be purchased either from the web site where the map(s) are shipped (via mail in page size envelope) or by visiting the Umatilla County Courthouse. If these maps do not meet your needs then we can create custom maps (see below).
