Tools as reported by the server

• resolve_jurisdiction
  Use first when the user names a US address, a point, or a place: returns the jurisdiction chain (state, county, town or township, city, largest first) with jurisdiction_id values, and for each function (assessment, tax_collection, recording, zoning, permits, gis) the government body responsible, its
• find_official_resource
  Use when the user needs a specific official page or office for a place: the parcel map, the tax bill page, the assessor, deeds, zoning, permits, septic, flood maps and the other topics. Choose the topic that fits the question. Give exactly one location: jurisdiction_id; address; lat and lon; or plac
• get_place_directory
  Use to see everything GovDir lists for one place (a state, county, town, township or city) by jurisdiction_id: the responsible body per function, the place's own offices with contacts, and its own official resources grouped by topic in the order of the topic vocabulary. Each resource appears once, u

This is screening from public maps, never an official flood determination, wetland delineation

  Use when the user asks about one property's parcel: parcel number, acreage, assessed value, last sale, land use, mapped zoning and flood, wetland and soil overlays for the whole parcel. The facts come from PublicGIS (www.publicgis.com), a separate parcel map, not from GovDir; publicgis_url is the pa
• county_parcel_data
  Use when the user asks about many parcels in one county: the biggest or smallest parcel, the most valuable, how many parcels are over a size, recent sales, the oldest building, or average lot size. Send the question in plain words with the county or city named, for example "biggest property in Aitki
