Parcel or Cadastral mapping is one of the basic widespread usages of Geographic Information System (GIS). The benefit of a parcel or cadastral map is that it allows for easy identification of where a property is located relative to public ways and adjacent properties or landbase features. Depending on the need, the detailing and accuracy of the data is defined.
For planners, assessors, and engineers it provides an informative aid in the evaluation of proposed subdivision, compliance to local zoning, expansion of municipal or city utilities, city planning, land record management and as a tool for managing the tax assessment process. It can further be used in Location Based navigation applications like point to point routing, locating points of interest, neighborhood applications etc.
