Defining Parcels to the Parcel Database
As with alignments, you must define parcels to the parcel database so
that the individual geometric components points, lines, arcs, or
polylines, become linked as a single object. This parcel data is stored
in a database in the project folder.
When you define parcels to the database, you can label them and
perform mapcheck calculations on them, depending on what you
specify in Parcel Settings.
