Project Goal

The project goal was to develop a user-friendly platform for Nebraska property owners to better understand property taxes, including levies, valuations, and trends. While individual Nebraska counties provide tools to view annual property tax bills, levy rates, and assessed values, most lack trend data on valuation and levy changes.

Business Problem Solved

The Property Tax Dashboard Application streamlines historic parcel data across all Nebraska Counties. It enables Nebraskans to easily track the evolution of their property taxes by analyzing the trends and understanding the impact of changes in the property value and levies. Through this platform taxing authority spatial changes can also be documented as districts shift, consolidate, or dissolve. The application allows users to view the data in multiple formats, including tables, mapping interfaces, or charts and graphs, the multiple ways to visualize data helps all Nebraskans to comprehend, and make informed decisions with the information.

Technology Implemented

The Nebraska Property Tax Dashboard was developed using ArcGIS Experience Builder, and ArcGIS Operations Dashboards to create the user interface. The data was processed using ArcGIS Pro. The application and parcel dataset are made available on NebraskaMap.gov (ArcGIS Hubsite) for the public to access.
