Thank you for creating AND sharing this video with us, Amy! I found it easy to understand and very helpful. It is something I can and will use, starting today!
For my bar Mitzvah project, I chose to help a park in Oakland be more cared for. The people in the neighborhood asked me to design a map of the park with layers and details that you can toggle on or off. I couldn’t decide which program to use so my dad, Adam Weiss, looked up good programs that I can use. He came across this video and we checked it out and it helped us so much. While we were watching the video, my dad looked at who posted this video. Amy Grotta. It turns out that not only did you make an incredibly useful video, but my dad also happens to know you. Thank you so much for making this video and it helped a lot.
Thank you so much! I had been layering boundary lines from the tax office over images downloaded from google earth in a photo editing software. This will save me HOURS!
Thank you so much! I had been struggling trying to figure out the property line on the satellite map. I don't know why maps can't overlay it directly. But your method is awesome and worked well.
Amy, I've been growling for some time. My GPS, the county site and the Lat/Long formats allowed, and the interface are really difficult with Maps. Dang. I'm a technical guy but what should be simple and intuitive is beyond comprehension and the help is benign. Maybe my county doesn't contribute property lines but there are no little green lines for parcels. Trying to input Lat/Long points is incomprehensible - they are rejected, regardless of filter tools for format. And how can one delete previous markers done manually? Still trying that effort. Arrgh.
Your video is great.... It Will help me big time however I don’t get the light gray lines for the property boundaries..... Is there some kind of setting that needs to be turned on or is it just not provided by the County?
Excellent video - I was wondering what software you use for your gps points on your cell phone - also are the extension of those files -Many thanks in advance
Just a caution: tax boundary information is nor necessarily actual ownership boundary. Some say "close enough for government work" but if you want it to hold legal weight, you must rely on the original deed(s).
The tutorial was very helpful, Amy! A little doubt though. The area of the polygon is shown in acres and mine shows in hectare. I am unable to change It to acres or any other annotation other than hectare. Could you please show how it could be done? Much help.
Thank you. This looks like a very useful feature. Unfortunately, it appears Google has removed it sometime prior to this comment (March 2024). C'est la vie!
Beneficial video - thanks. The only problem I had recreating it the faint gray tax boundary lines. Doesn't matter what map or part of the country I zoom in on, I can't get it to do that.
DO it on satellite view and use measure distance feature. The gray lines are lot lines and can be copied with screen print or you can name the map and save it.
Googlemaps has my property offset from the actual location. This may be due to the fact that I live on a dirt portion of the road and the Google mapping car does not or did not go 150' past the paved intersection. Also after following the directions you provide, I do not see any tax lines for my or any of the adjacent properties. I am in NC. Any ideas? Thank you for a very interesting video.
Is it marked for public as well? For example you want to add blocks or sectors of an area and label them as block A, B, C and so on. Will it be done publicly and be helpful for people?
Thank you, now how do you save it, or lock it from being edited again coz any slight mistake of change by any shared viewers results in changing the whole map. So how can I save my map? And if editing, only myself to do that. Thank you otherwise I created mine too. From a scratch ❤ love you ❤️ 🙂 😘
I'm trying to embed my created map to my website. When I click the three dots in the upper right portion of my created map title, then click embed on my site", I get a window that tells me that my map is not public. I don't get the "Sharing settings" page at 8:42 like you got? Instead, I get a small box that's titled "Share with people and groups". I click change settings and it shows "Public". What gives?
Iam failing to acquire a farm design or plan(that is where to put infrustures such as roads and buildings and which buildings to build first). I am requesting your help in coming up with the ideal plan and design. Thank you
This is what is frustrating about youtube videos, rarely do you get a video that is accurate and helps you. I have been trying to get clean maps that show just the property lines boundaries etc just like what you see in the intro in your video. I logged on Google Earth Pro and do not see a map options tab like in this video.I tried to do a screenshot to illustrate but dip %^%&^% youtube doesn't seem to have an option to attach files go figure.

Zach, what a small world! Congratulations on your Bar Mitzvah and say Hi to your Dad from me!
Thank you so much! I had been layering boundary lines from the tax office over images downloaded from google earth in a photo editing software. This will save me HOURS!

Great, quick, tutorial. I'm eager to give it a try. Thanks!

Just a caution: tax boundary information is nor necessarily actual ownership boundary.

I have this exact problem! My driveway is not on my land according to tax lot info.
Your are one smart lady! 👍
Very helpful.
Now I have worked on gis department but I doubt how to create and connect a vertex edge
If I make a property boundary will it show up on my phone’s map as well?
Thank you very much. It will be helpful for my app development.
Waaawooo Great ,, Thank you
thank you a lot
THANK YOU!
The tutorial was very helpful, Amy! A little doubt though. The area of the polygon is shown in acres and mine shows in hectare. I am unable to change It to acres or any other annotation other than hectare. Could you please show how it could be done? Much help.
That would be google localizer bot.
Good job👍
I am from India
Thank you. This looks like a very useful feature. Unfortunately, it appears Google has removed it sometime prior to this comment (March 2024). C'est la vie!
Can you see what was edited and when, if the maps is edited? Where do you find the history of the edits?
Very useful. thanks
Beneficial video - thanks. The only problem I had recreating it the faint gray tax boundary lines. Doesn't matter what map or part of the country I zoom in on, I can't get it to do that.
DO it on satellite view and use measure distance feature. The gray lines are lot lines and can be copied with screen print or you can name the map and save it.
Now I can help the micronation I'm in to have actual land.
Good video. How can I make my base map my county GSI MAP so I will have owners names and property lines?
How did you convert hectares to acres?
Very useful. Thank you Amy. Well presented
Superb
Can this boundary line be shown publicly on Google maps ?
Thank you
Thanks! :)
Googlemaps has my property offset from the actual location. This may be due to the fact that I live on a dirt portion of the road and the Google mapping car does not or did not go 150' past the paved intersection.

Could you work from your county's GIS map?
we cant set a specific scale for the my maps ? also it doesnt show the scale value to you at rhs bottom
Now I just need to know how to submit this to google as a location so when people search for it they find it.
Tax boundaries don't show regardless how far zoom in or out, yet they show in Zillow. Please help.
can we figure out the construction exact coordinates with an app?
Great video.. can you please tell how to embd the our own created map on wordpress realestate website
Google Maps doesn't show property lines in my area. :(
Did you figure this out? I am trying to shade multiple county lines. I know the info exists, click on view in google maps and it is shaded.
Hi Amy, what gps app do you use on your phone?
Is it marked for public as well? For example you want to add blocks or sectors of an area and label them as block A, B, C and so on. Will it be done publicly and be helpful for people?
Same question.....If you find the solution then reply me bro
Thank you, now how do you save it, or lock it from being edited again coz any slight mistake of change by any shared viewers results in changing the whole map.
So how can I save my map? And if editing, only myself to do that. Thank you otherwise I created mine too. From a scratch ❤ love you ❤️ 🙂 😘

I was looking for a question
How to download the map I marked
Can you answer this question?
thanks
Can it be seen in other phones or another account??
Your vice 🔥
The tax lot boundaries do not display. I'm using an iMac desktop / Firefox as my browser. Rural NW Arkansas property.
Can I upload an image on the selected coordinates/area?
Do you know how to remove the standard google points that show up on maps?
Thanks for sharing. Keep in mind such maps are not made in Google Maps but in what is called "Google My Maps".
How can I add my colony with borderline in Google Map...
All tax line boundries are off by at least 20 feet and in Ohio usually 20 feet on the right Left/Right borders ...
Can I make it public for everyone to see when the type the name of my property on Google map?
can you tell me how to I add my village on google maps. thanks you for your time.
i also have same equestion
Iam failing to acquire a farm design or plan(that is where to put infrustures such as roads and buildings and which buildings to build first). I am requesting your help in coming up with the ideal plan and design. Thank you
After we color on hover can we see the city name, if so how to do
This seems to give only a close approximation. At least in rural Eastern Nevada County, CA the tax line maps are very inaccurate.
I love it!!!
Wow
Hi mem how can i edit the map, whom i draw a area
how would you know where the property line is ?
what is app name?
This looks really good, but it needs updating. I'm not finding many of the commands you reference.
Hi Amy, are you familiar with land development property noticing business?
Nice video Thank you!!. Constructive criticism....Google why 'vocal fry' drives people crazy.
I find vocal fry very sexy
i find it incredibly annoying
How is that constructive?
How to remove the outside part of the property??
how to add a country? :/
Interesting - but I dont see any line boundaries, maybe its a US thing
I live in the US, and I don't see the boundaries either. It may be at the US county level.
