A mobile application, compatible with the Android operating system, designed to assist users in approximating the boundaries of real property. These apps typically leverage GPS data, mapping services, and publicly available property records to visually represent property lines on a smartphone or tablet. For example, a homeowner might use such an application to get a general sense of their property’s boundaries before installing a fence or landscaping.
The utility of such applications lies in their accessibility and convenience. They provide a preliminary visual aid for understanding property boundaries, which can be beneficial for property owners, real estate professionals, and potential buyers. While not a substitute for a professional survey, these applications can offer a quick and readily available reference point. Their development reflects the increasing availability of geospatial data and the capabilities of mobile devices.
