GIS Mission Statement

"Providing Spatial Data, Information and Innovative Solutions for the City of Emporia"

Overview

The City of Emporia's GIS Department offers many useful resources to help city departments and citizens find solutions to a range of issues. The problems we help solve involve a variety of approaches including data analysis, visual presentation, development of GIS tools, plus many others.

Some of the datasets we work to build, maintain, or update include city zoning classification, city-owned utilities, 911 address points, road centerlines, easements, as well as others.

If you would like a map made, have questions about the data we house, or have questions about what we do, contact us.
