    What these endpoints answer

    Field by field, whether any endpoint we index for Orleans Parish answers it, and the evidence for each. We only call a field restricted when there is a stated reason we can cite. Everything else here is a fact about the services we index, not a claim about the law.

    Notes

    MARKED UNREACHABLE 2026-08-29. Layer 15 metadata answers and lists PARCELID, OWNERNME1, SITEADDRESS, PSTLADDRESS, but ANY query that names those columns in outFields returns ArcGIS 400 "Failed to execute query" in ~250 ms (measured 2026-08-29: PARCELID IS NOT NULL, 1=1, OBJECTID=1 and a 30 m spatial query all fail with specific outFields). outFields=* succeeds and takes 27-44 s; even outFields=OBJECTID took 27.5 s. The enrich pipeline requests specific columns, so every paid lookup here fails and refunds; the liveness probe sends the declared sampleQuery and fails the same way, which is why this parish has never once probed ok (463 consecutive failures). Layers 0-14 of the same service are zoning, overlays and address points, not parcels, and ArcGIS Hub lists no city-owned parcel feature service. County-side defect; nothing to re-point to. Liveness keeps watching. Prior notes: Orleans Parish's public parcel layer still serves metadata, but its attribute-query operation is currently failing on the county's ArcGIS server. Owner and address searches are unavailable while the county repairs the service; automatic probes continue to check for recovery. New Orleans uses Square/Lot identifiers for legal parcels. The city also publishes a weekly situs-and-geometry dataset on data.nola.gov, but it does not include owner names. An older 2018 parcel snapshot was not substituted because its ownership data is dated and the service was unstable during verification. LIVENESS 2026-08-04: the layer's metadata still loads, but EVERY query against it times out, including a bare returnCountOnly count. 161 consecutive failed checks and last_ok_at has never been set. This is a county-side outage, not a schema drift; there is nothing to fix on our side and the endpoint stays honestly degraded until New Orleans repairs it.

    Using this endpoint

    What Orleans Parish publishes

    Orleans Parish's Property Information [Parcels] layer exposes a parcel identifier (Parcel ID). Use it for PIN-keyed record pulls (owner-name search lives on a separate assessor system). 3 of 15 listed fields accept queries; the rest are returned on read but not indexed for search. Served as an ArcGIS MapServer layer, which supports query operations but not write operations; last checked 2026-08-29; currently unreachable.

    Two paths from URL to result

    1. Open in Parcel Lookup: click the button on the endpoint card. The lookup tool loads the layer, auto-detects fields, and gives you a search box. No code, no API keys, just a browser.
    2. Query directly: append /query?where=…&outFields=*&f=jsonto the URL. The sample query above is a working example you can paste into a browser tab to see the raw JSON response.

    Why field names vary by county

    Counties publish parcel data through their own ArcGIS Server installations, each with its own schema. One county uses APN, another uses PIN, a third uses PARCEL_ID. Some expose owner names; others keep them on a separate assessor's portal. The searchable fields list above reflects what Orleans Parish actually publishes, not what you might expect from a national standard (there isn't one).

    For background, see What is an APN?

    What to do with the results

    • Generate a public-notice mailing list: pipe the parcel layer URL into Radius Notice to buffer around an address and select neighboring owners.
    • Print Avery 5160 labels: export the result CSV and drop it into CSV → Labels.
    • Pull individual parcel records: use Parcel Lookup directly to grab zoning, assessed value, and ownership for one property at a time.

    Quick FAQs

    Can I query Orleans Parish's parcel layer from my own web app?

    gis.nola.gov serves Orleans Parish, Louisiana parcels over public ArcGIS REST, but, like most county servers, it may not send the CORS headers a browser needs for a cross-origin fetch. If a direct browser call fails, the layer still works from curl, Postman, or a server-side script; the UrbanKit parcel lookup tool proxies the request, so a search that succeeds there confirms the layer is genuinely public.

    Is the Orleans Parish endpoint still current?

    We last verified Orleans Parish's MapServer layer on 2026-08-29 and it was unreachable on that check. County GIS teams move services without notice, so if you hit a fresh 404, tell us and we'll re-check. Atlas entries are re-verified on a rolling basis.

    Is there a rate limit on Orleans Parish parcel queries?

    Orleans Parish's layer is hosted by the county on gis.nola.gov. Public ArcGIS endpoints rarely rate-limit individual reads, but gis.nola.gov can throttle heavy automated traffic at the host level. Page through results with resultOffset / resultRecordCount and request only the fields you need. There's no API key and no charge from the county.
