Introduction
SmartFabricTM Core is a referential address fabric inclusive of parcel boundaries and centroids, building footprints, address points with sub-addresses and land use.
SmartFabric Core provides insights into into:
Property Boundary and Property centroid
Complete Address universe including situs and secondary addresses
Current owner name and owner address
Land Use
Owner Information
Building Footprints
SmartFabric Core Data Package made up of 4 layers and 6 relationship tables:
Parcel
This polygon layer contains the parcel information, including the boundary, aggregate acreage, associated assessment count and primary Building_LID.
More information:
Assessment
This point layer is made up of the assessment attribution, including situs address, land use, owner information etc. The point geometry is made up of the parcel centroid when the assessment is related to a parcel polygon.
Pro Tip
There are many ways to model the data once in your system. If your ultimate goal is to have this data within a mapping system, you might want to have the assessment data reside on the parcel polygons. To achieve this you will need to use the ParcelAssessementRelation table to create a join between the two data sets.
Note: Doing this you will create a parcel stack data model.
More information:
Address
This point layer is made up of our entire address universe, approximately 250 million addresses, it contains both situs addresses and secondary addresses You will also find the address confidence score and the address precision code.
More information:
Building
This polygon layer is made up of our building footprint data set. This dataset contains the footprint outline, min/max heights, ground elevation and UBID.

Relationship Tables
Please see SmartFabric Relationship Tables for more information.
Orphan Assessments
SmartFabric Core will contain orphan assessment records but they are not stored in an additional table, rather they are stored in the assessment table along with the matched assessment records. You can identify these records by finding records with a null Parcel_Lid
Delivery Format
The default delivery option is provided in FGDB (File Geodatabase) format, which includes 4 layers and 6 relationship tables.
FGDBs are organized by county or state; however, a national-level FGDB option is not currently available.
Optional Delivery Format 1: CSV files
CSV files are compressed into ZIP archives and are available by county or state.
Optional Delivery Format 2: Parquet files
Parquet files are offered at both the national and state levels.
All spatial data is stored in WGS 1984 (EPSG: 4362).
