Welcome to VENTURA maps!
|
|
A geographic information system (GIS) is any system that captures, stores, analyzes, manages, updates, manipulates, and displays data that are linked to location. In the simplest terms, GIS is the merging of cartography, statistical analysis, and database technology.
|
|
|
The City of Ventura was one of the earliest adopters of this technology declaring in the original
1987 Request for Proposal
that "the system is intended to complement and significantly enhance existing applications...to organize and relate all locational information in mapped form. It will be utilized by all departments to varying degrees primarily for analysis purposes rather than to create official record quality maps." By the end of that year, Ventura became one of the first local governments in California to begin using GIS technology.
|
|
|
Today, GIS is used more than ever in the City of Ventura. It provides the critical spatial element needed to support enhanced decision-making for economic analysis, smart growth, infrastructure maintenance, and public safety. It is now being integrated with all other major software applications including Permitting and the Police CAD (computer aided dispatch) system.
|
|
|
The GIS Division of Information Technology is an internal service for use by City staff on City projects. We hope that through the addition of these interactive mapping applications and by providing local information in its geographical context, we will improve the transparency of government and increase the civic engagement in our community.

Terms of Use

|
|
|
|
|
By entering this site, you are agreeing to the following terms of use:
|
|
The web mapping applications (accessible upon agreeing to this disclaimer) are provided as a public service by the City of Ventura, GIS (Geographic Information System) Division of Information Technology.
|
|
|
The City of Ventura provides this information with the understanding that it is not guaranteed to be accurate, correct or complete and that any conclusions drawn from such information are the sole responsibility of the user and made at their own risk. The City of Ventura shall assume no liability for: 1. Any errors, omission, or inaccuracies in the information provided regardless of how caused; or 2. Any decision made or action taken or not taken by the user in reliance upon any information or data furnished hereunder.
|
|
|
Availability of the City of Ventura Map Server is not guaranteed. Applications, servers, and network connections may be unavailable at any time for maintenance or unscheduled outages. Users are cautioned against creating dependencies on these services for critical needs.
|
|
|
Regarding parcel ownership: California Government Code 6254.21 states that "No state or local agency shall post the home address or telephone number of any elected or appointed official on the Internet without first obtaining the written permission of that individual." As the cost to collect and continuously update this information is prohibitive, the Ventura mapping application web site does not display the name and mailing address of the property owner.
|
|
|
Regarding Police Calls for Service: Calls for Service are not Crimes. They generally regard concerns for public safety and are typically initiated by the public through the 911 system. Public Safety Dispatchers receive the calls and assign the appropriate response, be it medical, fire, or police.
|
|
|
Regarding Links to External Sites: The City of Ventura neither endorses nor promotes these sites. Links are provided for your convenience only.
