parcel fabric record
URL copiedShare URL
[cadastral and land records]
A polygon feature representing the footprint of a land parcel transaction. Parcel fabric record polygons match the cumulative shape of all the parcels created or retired by the transaction. Parcel features (points, lines, polygons) are associated to the parcel fabric record that created them. Historic parcel features are also associated to the record that retired them. Examples of parcel fabric records are plans, plats, deeds, records of survey, or similar.
