Verified existing data and collected new data about various properties throughout the City of Kingston. While most of this data is collected in the field, widespread online mapping software such as Google Maps/ Earth and Bing Maps were also used to make determinations on whether planned improvements had been executed and in what time frame they were completed, which is helpful in determining whether a building permit was valid while the project was executed. This data is then transposed into paper files and electronic databases (RPS: Real Property System and Municity), and used by the assessor to make adjustments to assessed property values.
