Track: Urban and Regional Planning
Authors: Matthew Holden, Kevin McMaster

Zoning and Planning professionals in state and local government need to be able to visualize, use, and share accurate and timely data to make informed decisions and engage with other agencies, officials, and the public. Using the ArcGIS platform, the DC Office of Zoning has designed a new interactive zoning map application boasting powerful search capabilities, area calculation and measuring tools, detailed pdf reporting, high quality cartographic output and responsive design for mobile devices.
