platting
Intertwining hair sections
Platting is the act of braiding or interweaving strands, as with hair or straw.
In American land use, platting refers to the process of creating a plat—a detailed map or plan that divides a tract of land into lots, streets, and easements for development purposes.
The county requires platting before any subdivision can be approved.
Real estate developers and municipal planners use platting to establish legal boundaries and plan infrastructure.
