Deed Mapping & Land Records Conversion

Mapping parcels and land records directly from source documents — deeds, surveys, and plats — requires a unique blend of technical precision and domain expertise. Since its founding, Panda Consulting's Professional Services Team has mapped and converted more than half a million deeds into structured GIS data, building one of the deepest track records in the industry.

This work goes far beyond simple digitization. Our team draws on specialized knowledge of surveying principles, land tenure systems, the many forms deeds can take, and the nuances of legal description interpretation — metes and bounds, lot and block, aliquot parts, and more — to ensure every parcel is mapped accurately and defensibly.

Panda's Professional Services Team is widely recognized as a leader in converting hard-copy maps and records into modern geodatabases. Before any conversion project begins, our representatives meet directly with the client to review existing workflows and data structures. This collaborative approach ensures the transition to new technology delivers maximum benefit while minimizing disruption to day-to-day operations.

Remapping Services

Even well-executed mapping projects can be affected by source data that wasn't as accurate as needed, or by new survey information that reveals a more precise position for previously mapped parcels. Whether the scope is a single subdivision block or an entire county, our Professional Services Team provides comprehensive remapping services that integrate updated information into your parcel fabric.

Our specialists are experienced in remapping individual parcels while properly adjusting all surrounding data — ensuring that boundary lines, adjacent parcels, and related features remain consistent and correctly positioned relative to the corrected data. The result is a parcel layer that reflects the best available information without introducing new gaps, overlaps, or inconsistencies.

Realignment Services

Most jurisdictions receive updated aerial imagery on an annual basis, and these new aerials frequently reveal misalignments between existing parcels, rights-of-way, and the true ground location shown in the imagery. Our Professional Services Team has deep expertise in using Esri's software suite to efficiently adjust existing GIS data so it aligns properly with new aerial imagery — improving map accuracy without requiring a full remapping effort.

Our team also specializes in realigning existing data following the acquisition of new survey control points, ensuring your spatial data reflects the most accurate geodetic foundation available.

Before any realignment contract begins, our Professional Services Team meets with you to understand your specific needs and objectives. We walk through the realignment process in detail so you understand exactly how it will affect your existing data — helping you plan ahead and minimize disruption throughout the project.
