For a parcel in or near Corning, the Corning GIS map shows lines, owner names and parcel numbers. In this Corning guide: where that map lives, how to search it, and what to double-check with records.
Getting started with the Corning GIS map
In most places the county maintains the parcel layer, which makes the NYS Tax Parcels Public layer in ArcGIS Map Viewer the main source for lots in Corning.
Getting to the right map
Lots and tracts near Cameron can be looked up on the NYS Tax Parcels Public layer in ArcGIS Map Viewer, free to use and open without a login. Out toward Bath, type a street address, an owner's name or a parcel number, and the viewer zooms to the match. For land near Cameron, a pop-up or side panel usually lists the owner of record, assessed acreage, the parcel number and sometimes recent sales.
Field tips
The parcel map usually runs in a mobile browser, which helps when you're standing on land near Bath, so load it before you lose signal. A screenshot of the parcel near Bradford with its ID keeps working without signal.
Browser tips
If the viewer stalls on a phone near Campbell, try a desktop browser or clear the cache; links occasionally change, and our directory page keeps the current one.
Corning, NY: the basics
Corning is part of Steuben County, New York, and the county assessor maps its lots. In and around Bath, city or town hall handles matters such as zoning, permits and utilities within town limits, and the county still keeps the parcel and deed records. Lots just outside the town limits toward Bradford usually follows county rules, not municipal ones.
Searching the map
Vacant ground near Campbell may lack an address, so zoom in from Interstate 99 and click the outline. For acreage around Cameron, searching by parcel number never misses, and you'll find it on tax statements.
Layers worth turning on
If the land is near Campbell, look in the layer list for municipal boundaries, floodplain and sometimes zoning; not every viewer has them all.
Steuben County in a few facts

Roughly 92,162 people call Steuben County home (Census Bureau estimate, 2023) spread over roughly 1,391 square miles. Steuben County was formed in 1796, so old deeds can run back a long way.
Legal descriptions in New York
Older tracts around Avoca commonly use metes-and-bounds descriptions, listing bearings, distances and landmarks. Town lots near Bradford refer to a recorded plat, making them easier to find. Keep the legal description for land near Campbell before you request a deed or survey.
Land on the county line

Limits of the parcel data
The acreage figure is an assessed number; just a licensed surveyor can set the real lines for a parcel near Addison. For property near Campbell, records update in batches, so a deed recorded last month might lag behind.
Which office to call
If the acreage or value on a parcel near Bath looks off go to the county Real Property Tax Services office, the office behind the parcel record. Questions about what you can build around Addison are for the local planning and health departments, town or county, depending on location.
Recorded documents worth pulling
The map is an index, not the title: recorded deeds, plats and easements for land near Cameron are filed with the County Clerk. Near Campbell, use the document number from the tax record to skip a name search.
