 Orange County would like to introduce you to its latest GIS application, ARIESARIES is an acronym for Address Related Information - Electronic Search.  It is designed as a one-stop shop that will provide everything the County knows about an address.  The information ranges from tax and land records data, voting information, school districts, public safety, zoning, environmental health, nearest libraries and recycling centers, and more.  ARIES currently exists as a website designed for the desktop, but will soon be released as a mobile app for Android (and eventually Apple). Join us for a demonstration of ARIES and feel free to provide feedback so we might improve how it functions for your professional needs. This special lunch 'n learn is going to be held at ExtraOrdinary Ventures (200 S. Elliott Road) and a Pizza and Soda lunch will be provided by Maitland Law Firm. Pizza will be available at 11:30 and the program will begin at 12:00.
