The map, inspecting a parcel in McKinney
Collin County, TX
Five systems. One verdict.
Every screening runs the same five checks, measured from the parcel boundary. Each one has killed real deals late.
Substations
The nearest substations, how far, and at what voltage. Interconnect range is the number that matters.
Natural gas
Nearest pipelines with operator and diameter, so on-site generation is a real option or plainly isn't.
Flood
Share of the parcel inside a FEMA flood hazard area, and which zone. Buildable envelope, not just the boundary.
Air quality
Attainment status for the county. Nonattainment can add a year to permitting backup generation.
Not included: title work, environmental Phase I, geotech, or water rights. That’s diligence. This is the filter that decides whether diligence is worth buying.
The report reads like a decision.
The answer is on page one. This is a real one, for a 759-acre assemblage in Collin County.
A verdict, not a maybe
Proceed, conditional, or walk. Written in plain language you can forward to an investment committee.
Sources you can check
County appraisal records, OpenStreetMap transmission and substation layers, Railroad Commission pipelines, FEMA flood layers, EPA attainment. Every finding cites its source.
Maps for every system
Each report carries the infrastructure map behind it, so your engineers can pick up where the screen stopped.
Parcel to verdict in a sitting.

Find the parcel
Search an owner, prop ID, city, or county on the free map, or let the statewide index rank every parcel that fits your filters.
-
It screens itself
Every parcel on screen is measured from its boundary to the nearest 345 kV line, substation, and gas pipeline, then scored by one fixed rule set. Owner names are checked against the county appraisal district as you look.
-
Generate the report
One click builds the written report for a parcel or an assemblage, with the map, the distances, the current owner, the open items, and a link you can forward.
Cheap enough to screen every parcel you're considering. So the disqualifying problem shows up before you spend anything.
The expensive mistake is the site you carried for three months before the grid told you no. Ten dollars and ten seconds beats that every time.

Questions people ask before they try it.
Is this a substitute for full diligence?
No, and we’d be suspicious of anyone who said otherwise. This is the step before diligence: a fast, cheap read on whether the site deserves the expensive work. Title, Phase I, geotech, and water still belong to your diligence team.
What happens if the parcel fails the screen?
You get the same report with an Out verdict and the specific reasons: how far the 345 kV line is, whether a pipeline is in reach, what the acreage caps. A kill is the product working, and it costs the same as a pass.
Do you take equity, success fees, or referral fees?
No. A flat membership, no position in your deal, no fees from utilities, brokers, or anyone else in the transaction. The report has no reason to lean either direction.
What do you need from me to start?
Nothing. Open the map, find the parcel by owner, prop ID, city, or county, and press Generate report. No account, no upload, no call.
Where does it work?
All of Texas today: every parcel in all 254 counties, screened against the same transmission, substation, and pipeline layers. Other states follow the same pipeline once their parcel data is in.
How current is the data behind the report?
Parcels come from the state’s 2025 appraisal-roll compilation; owner names are re-checked live against the county appraisal district whenever a parcel is opened, and the report says which source it used. Transmission and pipeline layers are refreshed with each data build and dated in the report.
