Property Lines

To create property lines, you can use the sketching tools in Revit Architecture or enter survey data directly
into the project. Revit Architecture aligns the survey data with True North. See
on page 449.
In addition to viewing property lines in a drawing, you can do the following with them:
Scheduling. You can schedule property lines. The schedule can include the Name and Area property line
parameters. (The format of the area comes from the Area Units Format type property of the property
lines.) When you create the schedule, select Property Lines as the category to schedule. See
Schedule or Quantity
Tagging. You can tag property lines that can report square footage or acreage. Load the tags from the
Annotations folder of the Revit Architecture family library. The tags are Property Tag - Acres.rfa (acreage),
Property Tag - SF.rfa (square footage), and M_Property Tag.rfa (metric).
Exporting. You can export property line area information when you export your project to an ODBC
database. For more information about creating an ODBC database, see
Property lines on a topographical surface

Lines should form a closed loop. If you sketch an open loop, and click Finish Property Line,
Revit Architecture issues a warning that it will not calculate the area. You can ignore the warning
