Platr Acres · iOS · McCracken County, KY

Find land by what’s actually on it.

Not address and list price. Acreage, water access, crop history, slope, and road frontage — the things that determine whether a piece of ground is useful to you.

The Jackson Purchase is flat-to-rolling row-crop and timber country. For the buyer who wants owner-operated farmland with creek frontage and a county road, there is no public tool that finds that combination. The county website returns addresses; real estate portals return list prices. Neither knows what the land is actually doing.

Acres knows. It combines the county legal record with USDA satellite crop history, ground slope, wetland presence, and the road network — and it surfaces only the parcels that match all of your filters, on the map, immediately.

The interactive

Set your filters and the map highlights matching parcels instantly — no results list to scroll, no export to cross-reference with a separate map. The land that fits your criteria lights up on the same base map where you can see the terrain, the roads, and the relationship between parcels.

That query — find me every owner-operated 10-plus-acre parcel with southern exposure, drainage to a named creek, and continuous row-crop history since 2020, not currently under a conservation easement — is six filter passes against data that already exists in the pipeline. The join is the novel piece; the data is not.

What the satellite history reveals

The county record hasn’t caught up to actual land use. Three years of USDA satellite crop data show a meaningful number of parcels classified as “residential” in the legal record that have continuous row-crop history in the imagery. The legal classification reflects the designation on file; the satellite reflects what’s actually growing there. For a buyer evaluating agricultural productivity — or a county assessor checking classification accuracy — the gap matters.

Filterable attributes

Acreage

Minimum, maximum, or range. Rural parcels are the primary target — roughly 8–12k meaningful land parcels above 1 acre in McCracken.

Crop history

Three years of USDA satellite crop data per parcel — corn, soybeans, winter wheat, hay, fallow, etc. Filter on continuous row-crop, recent fallow, or specific crop type.

Water access

Wetland presence and stream adjacency. Identifies creek-frontage, pond-containing, and wetland parcels.

Slope

Mean slope per parcel from 2-foot terrain. Flat-fraction score — how much of the parcel is buildable or tillable — also filterable.

Road frontage

County road, state highway, or private drive. Landlocked parcels are filterable out. Frontage length is reported per parcel.

Owner type

Individual, LLC, or trust — inferred from the owner name. Filter for owner-operated land or identify institutional holders.

Property class

Legal classification — agricultural, residential, commercial, or other. Cross-filtered against satellite crop history to surface mismatches.

What’s not in there yet

Filter-to-data wiring — the skeleton UI and the filter UI exist; the join logic connecting filter state to the spatial query backend is the remaining build.
Conservation easement flag — NRCS easement data is available but not yet ingested into the pipeline.
Aspect / southern exposure — slope direction from the DEM is computable; the filter control isn’t in the UI yet.
Recent sale filter — sale date and price filters are in the backend; surface in UI is queued.
