Introduction to Paces Sites
Terminology
Sites consist of one or more parcels that are under consideration for development. Sites can be added to folders and have notes, ratings, insights, and more.
Parcels are individual pieces of land with specific borders and owners.
Creating Sites from Search, Map, and Uploads
Search Results propose Sites based on your criteria, which can be sorted, filtered, and analyzed in the list view. On the Site Detail Page, users can add notes, ratings, or nearby Parcels as needed.
Users can also easily create Sites from the Map. Simply select a Parcel and click Create Site. The Site will be added to a Drafts folder in Our Sites, waiting to be organized into a relevant Folder.
