Introduction to Parcel Drafter

Parcel Drafter can be used to enter metes-and-bounds descriptions and check for closure errors in order to verify survey information prior to submission.

It provides deed examiners up-to-date parcel information and a digital workflow for entering new metes-and-bounds land descriptions. This optimized approach helps organizations reduce the time required to process land description documents and share results between staff. Parcel Drafter is typically implemented by property appraisal departments, assessors, fiscal offices, and other local government agencies that want to improve their overall transaction time when a parcel related document is recorded.

The Parcel Drafter solution delivers a set of capabilities that help you capture parcel boundaries as documents are filed and can be integrated into a larger land records workflow that produces a complete inventory of tax parcels, subdivisions, lots, and related encumbrances.
