Ohio Prospector commercial properties site first in nation

A new statewide commercial properties website for the state of Ohio has launched, making Ohio the first state in the nation to offer this service as part of the business location search engine ZoomProspector.com.

Ohio Prospector, an interactive online mapping interface, gives businesses the opportunity to search for commercial properties, view demographic data, visualize infrastructure, and generate location-specific reports.

The website, built by GIS Planning, Inc., was supported by efforts from a number of major economic development organizations across the state, including organizations in Cincinnati, Hamilton County, and Clermont County.

"It is the first statewide economic development website that integrates property search with community characteristics such as population size, income, and college education," says Andrew Kuchta, director of economic development for Clermont County.  "This allows businesses to find the optimal community to invest in the state and gives Ohio a competitive advantage."
