A district is a territorial unit within a municipality that is used to group land parcels in the cadastral hierarchy.

Each land parcel in VertiGIS FM Parcel must have the district in which it is located selected in its details.

A district, or cadastral district, is not the same thing as a land register. A district and a land register refer to areas in different hierarchies used in land parcel management. Refer to Land Parcel Hierarchies for more information.

You can view and manage the districts in your database in either of two places in VertiGIS FM:

•On the VertiGIS FM Parcel start page (Actions > Cadastral Districts). This page provides a list of all cadastral districts in the system.

•In the country management administration (Administration > Master Data > Country Management). Double-click a state in the Federal States section, and then double-click a municipality in the Municipalities section. The cadastral districts within the municipality are listed.
