Introducing Right-of-way parcelflag and Parquet file format to Regrid Premium Schema.

Introducing Right-of-way parcel flag & Parquet format

Team Regrid November 10, 2022
Reach out to our data experts to learn more

As we approach the end of the year, we have the following updates for you - a combination of compelling product enhancements and public recognition of our company culture!

  • Right-of way parcel flag (Premium Schema)

  • Parquet file format (Premium Schema)

  • Regrid recognized as one of the "Best Places to Work in 2023"

  • Regrid Property App - Major update coming soon

So without further ado, let's jump right into each one of these updates.


AnchorIntroducing 'Right-of-way' parcel flag to the Regrid Premium Schema
We’ve added a new field to our Premium Schema ll_row_parcel that identifies right-of-way parcels & geometries. Right–of-way, or ROW parcels, track land that is typically used for movement, transportation, or utilities. These geometries rarely have a structure on top and often do not have an address associated with them.

 

A highway in Flint, MI:

Spiderweb ROW in Abbeville, SC:

Why does this flag matter? 

  • Geoprocessing - “Spiderweb” ROWs with many vertices cause problems with geoprocessing. Depending on the use case, you may choose to remove these geometries before running the dataset through your ETL process.
  • Property use cases - For use cases focused on deeper property insights (residential & commercial), a clear ROW indicator makes it easier to focus on properties with associated addresses.

The ll_row_parcel field is a part of our Premium Schema, and existing Premium data customers should see this field in their directories over the next few days.

Interested in evaluating our Premium Schema? Reach out to our data experts at parcels@regrid.com.

Regrid Premium Data in Parquet file format
Our nationwide Premium Schema parcel data is available in Apache Parquet format, delivered via SFTP.

Parquet is a column-based file format designed to be compact & efficient for large-scale data analyses. Learn about the value this format brings in this article about Parquet on our blog.
