Why We Need to Cut a Parcel in CAD?

Dividing parcels in CAD drawings is necessary for several reasons. It helps create smaller lots for homes, businesses, or factories and makes it easier to sell land by clearly marking boundaries for different owners. Zoning ensures that land divisions follow local rules and regulations. Infrastructure planning benefits from parcel divisions by allowing space for roads, utilities, and public areas. In agriculture, dividing land helps manage crops, livestock, or farming practices. Legal and financial reasons also necessitate parcel divisions. Using SPCAD’s Quick Division makes these tasks easier and more precise.

In the cadaster panel of SPCAD, we have a tool called Quick Division that allows you to divide a parcel in various ways with just one click. One of them is Divide by Percentage:

Divide by Percentage

Quick Division tools serve as flexible polygon cutting instruments that allow you to break down a closed polyline into smaller, manageable sections based on four different criteria, without needing to draw a separate cutting line beforehand. You can use these tools to divide the polygon into sections of predetermined sizes (DVA_SP), with any extra area fitting into the last section of the closed polyline. Additionally, you can split the polygon into two sections by defining a specific percentage (DVP_SP), or divide it into a set number of equal parts (DVN_SP). This makes it easier to handle and organize the areas within your CAD drawings accurately and efficiently.

How to Cut a Polygon Using Divide by Percentage in SPCAD

Select the Lot Polygon:
- Start by selecting the lot polygon that you need to divide. This helps the software identify the area for division.
Enter the Required Percentage:
- Input the specific percentage for the division. This will divide your polygon according to the percentage you have specified, creating section based on the given proportion.
Select the Start Point:
- Click on the point where you want the division to start. This point serves as the reference for the division process.
Select the End Point:
- Finally, click on the point where you want the division to end. This will help define the direction and boundary of the divided sections.
