DirtFlight is not a drone photography service. To get aerial photos of land in Arizona, enter the county and the APN, or draw the boundary on the map or upload a file. The pack renders in about ten minutes: an outlined top down, four cardinal 3D views, an 18 second orbit video, a hosted listing page and a parcel info sheet, with full resolution files of every view. Nobody flies out, so there is no travel charge, and it works anywhere in Arizona. Dirt is $29 a parcel and Paydirt $79, or $199 a month for PayDirt Pro (20 Paydirt packs a month). Paydirt adds a contour map and a context map showing what borders the parcel, the road frontage hero, the infrared land health view, the full social kit with platform captions, a posting plan and silent reels, pop-out photos from nine directions, the interactive 3D explorer and the measured diligence layers.

Five acres of high desert needs a landmark.
Arizona sells more sight unseen land than almost anywhere: forty acre pieces off a dirt section road, five acre lots on the Colorado Plateau, tracts nobody will visit before closing. From the ground it is juniper and sand in every direction, and a photograph proves nothing about which piece is which.
Drawing the boundary onto the imagery is the whole job here, and the context map answers the second question, which is what borders the parcel and how far the graded road runs.
Boundaries are approximate and are not a survey.
One parcel. Everything below.
One parcel, everything below. Juniper and sand, a section road along the east line, and state trust land on two sides.

Where Arizona land actually trades.
These are the counties land buyers ask about most.
Any Arizona county works: type the parcel number, draw the boundary on the map, or upload a KML, KMZ, GeoJSON or zipped shapefile. Try your APN free, and if a parcel will not come up from its number you hear that before anything is charged.

Rules for splitting an Arizona tract differ by county, so start with the county planning office. How to subdivide land walks through the steps, subdivide land photos renders a pack for every lot from a plat or a drawn split, and land home packages screens where a home can go on a lot.

Asked by people selling Arizona ground.
Which Arizona counties can you do?
Any Arizona county works. Send the county and the APN and DirtFlight renders the pack. If a parcel will not come up from its number, you hear that before anything is charged, and you can draw the boundary on the map or upload a KML, KMZ, GeoJSON or zipped shapefile instead. The pack comes back the same.
Is a pack useful on Arizona desert and ranch parcels?
Desert and high desert acreage, ranch and grazing ground, mountain and pine country in the north, irrigated farmland, and large rural subdivision lots. Typical uses there: off-grid and rural homesites, ranch land, recreational parcels, and lots held in older land subdivisions.
How do I show a buyer which forty is theirs out in the desert?
The boundary is drawn on the imagery, so the exact piece is outlined rather than described. The four 3D views place it against the mesa, the wash or the ridge behind it, which is what makes one desert forty different from the next.
Does it show the road in and whether a wash crosses the parcel?
Yes. Graded roads, two track and dry washes read clearly from above, and the access view marks where the road meets the line. A wash cutting through the buildable area is something buyers price in, and they can see it for themselves. Buildable: ground outside mapped slope, flood and wetland areas. A screen, not a zoning, septic or permit approval.
What do I enter for an Arizona parcel?
In Arizona, the number to look for is the APN on the county record. Enter the county and the APN as it appears on the tax record, or a street address, and DirtFlight draws the boundary. If a parcel will not come up from its number, you are told before anything is charged, and you can draw the boundary on the map or upload a boundary file instead.
What reads clearly from above on Arizona desert ground?
Washes and drainage lines, the road or two-track in, slope and rock, and how one square lot sits among identical neighbors. The boundary is drawn on every view, and the imagery is the most recent aerial available for that county, usually one to three years old, with the date on the pack.
