For the past several years, Forsyth County Tax Administration has provided tax map and sales information through GeoData Explorer. Due to the retirement of GeoData Explorer on Dec. 31, Forsyth County Tax Administration will be providing this information through a new web application platform. 

The tax information currently on GeoData Explorer will now be housed on two primary web applications, Tax Parcel Viewer and the Sales App. The new web applications can be found at http://mapforsyth.org/projects.aspx. MapForsyth has worked diligently to ensure the majority of the tax information supplied by GeoData Explorer will now be available through the new platform.

Forsyth County Tax Administration’s primary location for tax information, the Detailed Property Information website (available at www.forsyth.cc/tax) will remain the same. The new web applications also include links that direct users to the Detailed Property Information website to obtain specific tax information on properties within Forsyth County.

Forsyth County Tax Administration is working with MapForsyth to further support our community by providing training sessions on the new web applications and the Detailed Property Information website. There is no appointment necessary to attend one of the training sessions and the training sessions are available at no cost to anyone in the community who wants to know more about these web applications and how to use them.

These training sessions are being held every Tuesday and Thursday through the end of 2018 at the Forsyth County Government Center, 201 N. Chestnut St., Winston-Salem, on the third floor in the Professional Development Center Training Room.  Please see the training schedule below for specific dates and times:

Tuesday, Dec. 11, 3 – 4 p.m.; Thursday, Dec. 13, 9 – 10 a.m.; Tuesday, Dec. 18, 9 – 10 a.m.; Thursday, Dec. 20, 3 – 4 p.m.
