DATA WITH PURPOSE
Parcel data for a better world
Regrid helps nonprofits, researchers and academics access nationwide parcel data for projects that serve communities, advance research and improve our understanding of land and place.
Why it matters
Good work shouldn't stop at the data budget.
Parcel data can be an important starting point for understanding land, property and communities,
but building a consistent dataset across jurisdictions can put valuable research and public-interest projects out of reach.
Data with Purpose gives qualifying organisations a more accessible way to start with Regrid’s standardized parcel data
Start with the parcels
Work with property boundaries and parcel-level information rather than trying to assemble a national picture from disconnected local sources.
Work consistently across places
Use a common schema across counties and states, making it easier to study patterns and compare places beyond a single jurisdiction.
More resources for your work
Access qualifying data without the standard commercial cost becoming the deciding factor in whether the project can happen.
Put the data to work
One parcel layer. Many ways to make a difference.
Regrid's parcel schema includes boundaries alongside categories spanning ownership, addresses, land use and zoning, assessment, structures, related geographies and other parcel attributes; coverage varies by field and county.
housing and land use
Explore property patterns, development, ownership, zoning and how land is used across communities.
conservation and land stewardship
Connect parcels to landscapes, ownership and other geographic information to support conservation planning and research.
environment and public health
Use parcels as a geographic foundation for projects connecting people, properties, infrastructure and environmental conditions.
civic and community tools
Bring parcel boundaries and property context into maps, public-interest applications and resources that make land information easier to understand.
academic research
Give researchers and university data teams a consistent parcel layer for studies that span communities, counties or states.
data accessibility
Connect other datasets back to real properties so findings can be mapped, analysed and communicated more clearly.
How it works
Data access that matches the scope of your work
PROJECT
Tell us about your work. Share your project, the geography you need and how you plan to use the data.
DATA
For qualifying regional projects requiring only standard schema, a current Standard Schema bulk snapshot can be provided at no cost. If your work requires Premium data, recurring updates or another delivery method, propose a budget that works for your organisation.
IMPACT
Put the data to work. Use Regrid parcel data in your research, analysis, maps or public-interest project.
"This project really came about because one of our colleagues discovered the Regrid data and encouraged us to look into it. Once we saw what was possible, everything else followed"
Benji Reade Malagueño
Researcher, University of Berkeley
"Regrid’s parcel framework helped us make carbon value searchable by property, which makes it a lot easier for users to identify and act on high-impact opportunities."
David Highness
Trust for Public Land
"Regrid’s parcel data has been instrumental in helping us translate diverse data into property-level insights at the scales that matter for decision making."
Tyler Lark
University of Wisconsin
“We are able to process up to 60% of a given county’s well data using Regrid parcel data & the Esri-compatible Regrid Feature Service. This has dramatically increased our productivity.”
Evie Murgia
Project Manager, Michigan Geological Survey
“Regrid data is both high quality data AND in the right format. We appreciated the collaborative nature of working with the Regrid sales team.”
Matt Felton
Founder, Datastory
“Regrid's Esri-compatible Feature Service has saved us time and money. What used to take 30 minutes to several hours searching for and downloading data county by county now takes 5 minutes."
Jennifer Blattman
Senior GIS Analyst, The Conservation Fund
Frequently asked questions
-
Data with Purpose is intended for researchers, academics and nonprofit organisations using parcel data for non-commercial projects that create public or community benefit.
-
For qualifying regional projects requiring only standard schema, Regrid offers a single current snapshot of Standard Schema bulk data at no cost.
-
Standard Schema access can cover the geography your project needs, including counties, states or nationwide U.S. data.
-
Projects requiring Premium attributes, recurring updates or access through tools such as Feature Service or API can describe their requirements and propose a budget.
-
No. The program is intended for nonprofit, academic and research use rather than business purposes.
-
Tell us what you’re working on, what you’re trying to achieve, who the work is intended to benefit, the geography you’re studying, and the Regrid data or attributes you think you’ll need. Tell us what you think is important for us to know, but this isn't a grant application! Please don't feel like you need to write a lengthy application statement.
Why we do it
Built from civic tech. Still committed to it.
Regrid began as Loveland Technologies in Detroit in 2009, rooted in civic technology and community work. From the beginning, we saw both how powerful land data could be — and how often the people working on important problems struggled to access it.
Data with Purpose carries that idea forward: make high-quality parcel data more accessible to people using it to understand places, answer important questions and create public benefit.
