Property boundaries
The Property tool queries Wisconsin Statewide Parcel Map Initiative (local governments) for parcels in Barron County and uses a returned boundary for supported terrain analyses. The statewide aggregation has local gaps and may differ from current records. If no usable parcel is found, draw or upload an area instead. Parcel maps are not legal surveys; most file downloads cover the rectangle around a selection.
