CoreLogic Database Expands to 138.5 Million Unique Parcels
CoreLogic announced its patented ParcelPoint technology has expanded to include data coverage for 138.5 million parcels, 97 percent of which are actual parcel boundary polygons.
According to the announcement, it is the most comprehensive parcel database in the U.S., covering 2,605 counties across the country. CoreLogic has maintained the nation’s largest parcel database since 2008, when initial coverage totaled 90 million parcels.
The company reports that the ParcelPoint spatial data provides the parcel boundaries and centroid points defined by actual latitude/longitude coordinates that are vital to identifying the geographic location of an individual property, ownership information, as well as property address and assessor parcel number (APN). Data is sourced from public records in various formats, and are then checked for geometric errors, positional accuracy, and attribution. The parcels are standardized for consistency and then incorporated into a spatial dataset to create uniform information for widespread use.
