National (U.S.) Land Parcel Data: A Vision for the Future (2007) 
Executive Summary, http://www.nap.edu/execsumm_pdf/11978.pdf
Despite major progress in development of digital land parcel databases in many local jurisdictions, little progress has been made towards the development of nationally integrated land parcel data. Therefore, the current study, which was sponsored by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM), the Census Bureau, the Federal Geographic Data Committee (FGDC), the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), and Environmental Systems Research Institute (ESRI), was initiated to assess the status of a national land parcel data set and the challenges to developing it. The study included the following specific tasks:
· identify the benefits of accurate parcel databases to all stakeholders (public and private);
· describe the current status of parcel databases across the nation at all levels of government;
· document what has been shown to be possible at a local, regional, and state level, using examples of successful systems;
· provide a vision of what could be possible nationwide; and identify a strategy to achieve the vision, including the role of the federal agencies, and accounting for challenges that must be overcome.
