land parcel

Defined ground area

A land parcel is a legally defined piece of real property with established boundaries, identified for purposes of ownership, taxation, or development.

Parcels are typically recorded in official land registries with unique identification numbers: The county divided the estate into six separate land parcels.

Real estate transactions, zoning decisions, and property assessments all operate at the parcel level.
