Clay County, Minnesota, operates a Geographic Information System (GIS) to provide current and accurate geo-spatial (map) information to all County departments, other agencies, and the general public.

County governments are increasingly required to streamline business practices while adhering to complex political or regulatory requirements. To do so, they must digest an immense amount of information to perform their duties in a fair and sound manner. Almost all of this information is in some way tied to a geographic element such as an address, parcel, postal code, Census block, or some other component.

GIS technology provides a flexible set of tools to perform the diverse functions of government by providing the data management tools needed to help accomplish the gargantuan task of managing vast amounts of geographic-based information. More importantly, GIS technology makes data sharing among departments easy so that the government can work as a single enterprise.

The primary goal of Clay County GIS is to reduce duplication, increase productivity and enhance decision making capabilities. Additionally, public access to data is a priority.
