What's in the workspace
Every feature available after your description is processed.
Parcel on a satellite map
Your boundary overlaid on a satellite basemap at its correct real-world position. Toggle section grid, parcel fabric, and building footprints on or off.
Coordinates at every vertex
Every corner listed with survey-grade coordinates ready to use in your CAD project or GIS platform.
Area & boundary check
Computed area in acres and square feet, perimeter in feet, and a boundary check reported in feet.
Street View at every corner
Ground-level Google Street View imagery aimed at each boundary corner, with historical dates to review past conditions.
Building footprints
Building footprints within and adjacent to the parcel, with structure type, area, and assessor attributes.
Parcel & assessor lookup
Click any point on the map to look up county assessor data — parcel ID, owner, land use, zoning, and other public-record attributes.
CAD Bridge
Push the boundary directly into AutoCAD, Civil 3D, or Carlson with the free Bridge plugin, or download the native DWG.
Multi-description documents
Upload a single PDF containing multiple parcels, easements, or tracts. Each is plotted and delivered as a separate result with its own outputs.
Deliverables included with every result
All formats available in one click from the Download tab — no extra steps.
Opens directly in AutoCAD, Civil 3D, and Carlson — no conversion
Model-space linework plus a paper-space version with title block and line table
Opens in Google Earth and ArcGIS Online
For QGIS, web maps, and any GIS platform
Aerial imagery with parcel overlay and a full coordinate table at every vertex
Plotted boundary with area, perimeter, and line table
Ground-level photos at every corner with historical imagery
Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about Legal-Plot.
Metes-and-bounds descriptions with bearings and distances, including curves. Upload as PDF (text-embedded or scanned), DOCX, TXT, or enter calls manually.
No — upload the file and Legal-Plot handles positioning automatically. Coordinates are computed at every vertex and are ready in every output.
You can drag the anchor pin on the Map tab to position the parcel manually. All outputs update immediately.
Yes. Upload a multi-description PDF and each plottable description — Parcel 1, Parcel 2, Easement A, Tract B — is plotted independently with its own status badges and output files.
Yes. Google Street View is pulled up aimed at each boundary corner, with historical imagery dates available. The STV badge shows how many corners have coverage.
POB — parcel placed at its real-world location; BOB — bearing orientation confirmed; GEO — coordinates computed at every vertex; CLO — boundary closes within tolerance; STV — Street View imagery found. Each turns green when its check passes.
Yes. The free Bridge plugin pushes the boundary directly into your active drawing. Or download the native DWG and open it directly.
