This article will guide you through the process of aligning the lot boundary with the satellite imagery, as well as repositioning any existing structures to match the correct location on the map.
The boundary data is sourced from each state or region’s official digital mapping atlas. However, satellite imagery may differ slightly due to capture angles or variations between third-party providers. You can adjust the overlay to ensure the boundary & structures accurately reflect the satellite view.
