The Local Government Information Model

Available with Standard or Advanced license.

  • Enable the Local Government Information Model
  • Parcel editing workflows

The Local Government Information Model (LGIM) is an information model of GIS datasets and web services that integrate processes across government departments in the United States. The LGIM contains a collection of maps and apps that are used to manage land records in the United States. A parcel fabric can be enabled with the LGIM.

When a parcel fabric is enabled with the LGIM, it becomes optimized for parcel editing in the United States. The parcel fabric layer is configured to display tax parcels, subdivisions, lots, and encumbrances and is streamlined for common parcel editing workflows. Parcel types, attributes, and domains that reflect the editing requirements of local government parcel maintenance are added to parcel fabric tables. Automated parcel editing workflows are available on the Parcel Editor menu.

Parcel editing workflows

Once you have successfully enabled your parcel fabric with the LGIM, you can use automated parcel editing workflows. These workflows are common editing workflows used by local governments for parcel maintenance. To open the workflows, click Parcel Editor > Parcel Workflows.
