U.S. Census Bureau
Address matching, coordinates and Census geography. UtilityDataUSA uses Census geocoding as the common starting point for a searched address.
Resources
The official tools — without the scavenger hunt.
UtilityDataUSA is built to save users from figuring out which agency, portal or database to search first. When you do need the original tool, we make the route back to it clear.
Data sources
Connected source families and expanding local layers.
Live sources return implemented evidence directly. Public-context sources are connected with stricter limitations. Expanding sources are still added location by location.
U.S. EPA
Environmental source context and nearby Facility Registry Service records. Useful for screening, not a complete environmental due-diligence determination.
FEMA
Official flood-hazard context from the National Flood Hazard Layer. A point lookup is not a survey, elevation certificate or insurance determination.
National Weather Service
Weather forecasts and active alerts for the location, checked separately.
USGS 3DEP terrain elevation
Modelled terrain height and source acquisition date. It does not replace a survey.
USDA Soil Data Access
Mapped soil-unit components, drainage and hydrologic groups where recorded. It does not replace testing or a site investigation.
U.S. Geological Survey
Hydrologic monitoring context and nearby monitoring locations. USGS monitoring sites do not identify a property's water or sewer provider.
PHMSA / NPMS
UtilityDataUSA carries county/ZIP-aware NPMS public context and direct official follow-up. NPMS is not exact line locating and does not include gas distribution or gathering lines.
811 / State One-Call
The required safety handoff before digging, drilling or excavating. UtilityDataUSA must never be used instead of the applicable state one-call process.
U.S. Energy Information Administration
UtilityDataUSA connects Census county/state geography with EIA context. EIA-861 service-territory data can indicate utility presence by county/state but does not prove service at a specific address.
State & Local Sources
Public utility commissions, state GIS portals, counties, assessors, cities, municipal utilities, water/sewer districts and local permit systems vary by location.
Source transparency
We shorten the route. We do not hide the source.
UtilityDataUSA is independent. Government and utility sources remain responsible for their own data. Important results should stay traceable to the original source, along with the limitations of that source.
Source status
Results can explicitly report live data, no data, source errors, public context, safety follow-up or expanding local coverage.
Source limitations
Flood, environment, water, energy and pipeline context answer different questions. UtilityDataUSA does not blur them into one false conclusion.
Original evidence
For compliance, permitting, engineering, excavation or other high-consequence decisions, users should verify with the original authority.
Important: UtilityDataUSA does not locate underground lines and does not replace 811, field markings, private utility locating, potholing, engineering review, permits or any clearance required by law or project conditions.
Searches send the submitted address to the U.S. Census geocoder and the matched coordinates to the relevant public-data providers. Successful matched-address reports and their public-source results may be saved for 30 days and reused according to each source’s freshness limit. The database stores the matched public address, source evidence and check times; it does not store the original typed text or associate reports with a user account. Saved report links allow anyone holding the link to reopen that evidence until expiry. Hosting and data providers may retain operational logs under their own policies. If you select AI interpretation, the address and source evidence are sent to OpenAI with response storage disabled; provider operational retention can still apply. Downloaded reports contain the matched address. A saved report link grants access to that report; an ordinary search link contains the address. Avoid entering confidential information.
