Hi,

TopangaHiker, here.

I'm kind of new. I just got my first GPS: a Garmin 60CSx.

I really like it and after only on day have found my first GC.

 

Anyway, being a Realtor I came upon this idea:

A program that could convert assessors parcel numbers (APN) into map coordinates and visa versa.

I can't tell you how many times I've had the following conversation.

 

Owner of some vacant land: I own some land and want to know what it's worth.

TopangaHiker: Great! What's the address?

OOSVL: Uh, I don't know.

TH: Hmmm...well, can you tell me where it is?

OOSVL: Well, I don't really know.

TH: Do you have a survey?

OOSVL: No.

TH: Do you have an APN?

OOSVL: Oh, sure, it's ...

 

Anyway, 9 times out of ten it's landlocked or impossible to find. Seeing it on a county assessors map is one thing. Finding it is arduous.

 

I plan on creating my first GC very soon.

 

Thanks,

TopangaHiker
