June 29, 2011 -- The City of Southfield, MI teamed with Geographic Information Services, Inc. (GISi), an ESRI Platinum Business Partner, to develop a public accessible Internet Mapping application ( http://maps.cityofsouthfield.com).   This Internet Mapping portal provides a wealth of geospatial information to its residential and business community, supporting public service delivery 24/7.  The City and GISi migrated its current WebADF application to the ArcGIS Server 10 platform using Microsoft Silverlight™ version 4.  Resources like the City’s Internet Mapping Portal reflect the type of investments Southfield is making to ensure a vibrant business climate exists.  This site helps promote the growth of existing business and attract new investments into the city while providing vital information to its citizens. Residents and nonresidents alike are able to view property ownership, zoning, voting districts, refuse and recycling information and many more commonly used data layers.
