Cache County buys aerial photo services to assist property tax valuation

Cache County buys aerial photo services to assist property tax valuation LOGAN — Cache County has purchased a program that may provide aerial images of all of the land and buildings in the county. These images will show every side of all the buildings in Cache County. The county has also purchased online tools from Pictometry to measure buildings using these images, Jenkins said. The planes will photograph images from various angles to capture the whole valley, said Cary Jenkins, a geographical information systems (GIS) specialist in Development Services. "We overlay our property boundaries on it so we can look and see which structures are there," Howell said. Howell said the pictures can certainly help the assessment office gather data, but they will still measure buildings on site.
