About the official source

This map is published by or for Blackford County itself, so it reflects the local parcel layer rather than a third-party copy. As of our October 2026 test, anyone could open it without signing in or paying.

Finding a property on this map

  1. Open the link to the Beacon site from Schneider Geospatial. If a terms or disclaimer window appears, agree to it to continue.
  2. Use the search bar to look up a street address, an owner's name or a parcel ID. Beacon sites usually also have a dedicated property search page.
  3. Click a lot on the map and then open its report for assessment and property details.
  4. Use the layer and basemap controls to add aerial photos or other layers the county publishes.

If an address search comes up empty, try the parcel number from a tax bill or deed instead, or click the lot on the map.
