Government
One structure identity across public records, planning, operations, response, and recovery.
PIID™ gives agencies, jurisdictions, emergency management organizations, and public safety systems a persistent way to reference the same physical structure across departments, records, systems, and time.
Government
Persistent identity for the built environment. Identity resolved geometry for the systems that depend on it.
PIID™ gives agencies, jurisdictions, emergency management organizations, and public safety systems a persistent way to reference the same physical structure across departments, records, systems, and time.
The government identity problem
Public records identify everything around the structure.Not the structure itself.
Government systems rely on parcel IDs, addresses, permit numbers, GIS objects, inspection records, local asset identifiers, and departmental databases.
Each serves a purpose.
None provides a persistent structure identity designed to remain with the same physical asset across departments, systems, ownership changes, jurisdictional workflows, and decades of change.
The result is repeated reconciliation, fragmented histories, duplicate records, inconsistent references, and unnecessary ambiguity across the public infrastructure lifecycle.
- Parcel
- Address
- Permit ID
- Assessor
- GIS object
PIID Resolve™
Give every structure a persistent government reference.
PIID Resolve™ identifies, validates, and resolves physical structures to persistent infrastructure identities.
Addresses, parcels, coordinates, geometry, and supported public records can resolve to the same physical structure through PIID™, allowing government systems to retain their existing identifiers while gaining a consistent structure reference across departments and workflows.
Existing systems keep their records. PIID™ gives them a persistent way to reference the same structure.
PIID Resolve™Built for government workflows
One identity across the public infrastructure lifecycle.
Permitting
Connect permits and project records to the physical structure they affect.
Inspections
Maintain continuity between inspection activity and the same structure through time.
GIS and Mapping
Connect structure identity with identity resolved building geometry and existing spatial systems.
Emergency Planning
Give preparedness and planning systems a persistent structure reference before an event occurs.
Catastrophe Modeling
Improve structure level continuity across exposure, scenario, planning, and risk analysis.
Emergency Response
Reference the same physical structure across dispatch, response, assessment, and operational systems.
Recovery
Connect post event inspections, damage assessments, recovery activity, and supporting records to the same structure identity.
Public Works and Infrastructure Management
Maintain persistent structure references across capital planning, maintenance, improvement, and infrastructure programs.
Code Enforcement
Connect violations, inspections, corrections, and supporting records to the same physical structure.
Long Term Records
Allow the identity of the physical structure to persist even as systems, departments, ownership, and surrounding records change.
Emergency management
The structure should not change identity when the event begins.
Preparedness, response, and recovery often involve different systems, organizations, records, and operational teams.
PIID™ provides a persistent structure reference that can remain consistent before, during, and after an event.
One structure identity across preparedness, response, assessment, and recovery.
Cross department interoperability
Different departments.Same infrastructure.
- Planning may reference a parcel.
- Permitting may reference a permit number.
- Public safety may reference an address.
- GIS may reference geometry.
- Emergency management may reference an incident location.
PIID™ allows those systems to retain their existing records while providing a persistent reference to the same physical structure.
Identity becomes the connection point.
Enterprise delivery
Built for government systems.
PIID Resolve™ is delivered through enterprise APIs using structured JSON responses.
Technical teams can integrate persistent structure identity and identity resolved geometry directly into GIS environments, permitting platforms, inspection systems, emergency management applications, public safety environments, data platforms, analytics systems, and other government workflows.
API delivered. Machine readable. Built for integration at scale.
Data control
PIID does not require government systems to surrender their records.
PIID™ is designed to provide a persistent reference across existing systems.
Agencies can maintain their existing databases, identifiers, records, and technology environments while using PIID™ to coordinate identity across them.
Existing systems remain in place. Identity becomes interoperable.
Governed by GIIS™
Persistent identity requires consistent rules.
The Global Infrastructure Identity Standard establishes the governance framework for how infrastructure identity is assigned, referenced, resolved, and maintained across systems and organizations.
GIIS™ provides the consistency required for infrastructure identity to remain useful as adoption expands across jurisdictions and sectors.
At scale
Infrastructure identity for the public sector.
