Searching in OneView¶
Search is accessed through the Search tool 
in the OneView toolbar.
Address, buffer, owner, parcel, platted lands, PLSS, and street search
options are available. Many searches have typeahead functionality, meaning
that as you type, matches for your search criteria will start to appear. As
the list refines as you type, you can select from the list of candidates at
any time.
The OneView Search window.
Note
There are multiple ways to clear results from the map and Results Panel.
Individual records from a layer. To remove a record from a result layer, click on the “x” to the left of the result item to remove it from the current result set.
An entire layer from the result set. To remove an entire layer from the current results set, click the “Clear layer from results” No icon (circle with slash through it) in the upper right of the layer results.
All results from all layers. Some searches or Identify actions will result in many results being returned on multiple layers. To clear all results from all layers, click on the “Clear results” No icon at the very right of the Results Panel header.
Warning
Clearing results permanently removes them from your search results. To get those same results back, you will have to perform the search/identify again.
Quick Search¶
Quick Search (located in upper left of application) is a feature of OneView that allows you to easily and quickly search for tax parcel or owner.
To use, simply start typing a tax parcel ID or an owner name and results will start appearing. Use the scroll bar to navigate through the auto-search and click on an option or keep typing to narrow down the results:

Buffer Search¶
The buffer search allows the user to buffer currently selected features and find features from other layers that may be within the buffered distance. That said, it is important to note that before executing the buffer tool, one must already have features selected that can be buffered (selected either through search results or the Identify tool).
For example, open the Buffer tool and using the Spatial Search tools, select Schools as the current Features and drag a rectangle over the city of Elkhorn:
This gets you the schools in Elkhorn:
Next, go back to the Buffer tool, enter 5000 for distance, and select Police Stations as your Features. Hit the Buffer button and you will get two police stations that lie within 5000 feet of the previously seleted Elkhorn schools.

To search by owner name, select “Owner” for the Search Type, then begin typing a name, first name first. Matches will begin showing up in the dropdown. Select the name of interest, and results will get presented in the Results Panel and the parcel will get selected and zoomed to.

Spatial Search Tools¶
In addition to the search options discussed above, there are also spatial search tools that allow the user to select an area on the map to search within. These tools function similarly to the drawing tools. Point, line, polygon, and rectangle searches can be done. Once the user selects a tool, the tooltip on map hover explains how to use it.
For example, to perform a spatial search on tax parcels and select a large area of parcels, click on the Rectangle Spatial Search Tool and select “Tax Parcels” from the Features dropdown.

Next, drag a area on the map you would like to get parcel information on by pressing down to start, dragging the rectangle, and releasing the mouse click to finish.
