Automated parcel editing workflows
This topic applies to ArcGIS for Desktop Standard and ArcGIS for Desktop Advanced only.
When the Local Government Information Model is enabled on a parcel fabric, parcel types, attributes, and domains that reflect the editing requirements of Local Government parcel maintenance are added to parcel fabric tables. The parcel fabric layer is displayed and symbolized using the Local Government configuration, and the parcel fabric can be used in efficient and automated parcel editing workflows.
Automated parcel editing workflows are listed on the Parcel Workflows window, which can be opened by clicking Parcel Editor > Parcel Workflows on the Parcel Editor toolbar.
The following automated parcel editing workflows are available on the Parcel Workflows window :
- Merge Parcels
A workflow for merging or combining tax parcels in the parcel fabric Local Government Information Model
- Parcel Split: Metes-And-Bounds
A workflow for splitting tax parcels using a metes and bounds description in the parcel fabric Local Government Information Model
- Parcel Split: Area Description

- Parcel Split: Parent Parcel
