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.

Hamilton County's CAGIS.Ham_Parcel_Poly layer exposes parcel identifiers (Parcel ID, Auditor Parcel ID) and owner names (Owner Name (Primary), Owner Name (Secondary), Owner Address Line 1, Owner Address Line 1A). Use it for owner-name lookups and PIN-keyed record pulls. 6 of 12 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 verified 2026-05-15.

The sample query above is a working example you can paste into a browser tab to see the raw JSON response.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 Hamilton County actually publishes, not what you might expect from a national standard (there isn't one).

cagisonline.hamilton-co.org serves Hamilton County, Ohio 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.
We last verified Hamilton County's MapServer layer on 2026-05-15. 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.
Hamilton County's layer is hosted by the county on cagisonline.hamilton-co.org. Public ArcGIS endpoints rarely rate-limit individual reads, but cagisonline.hamilton-co.org 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.
