Some keyboard shortcuts to change your selection

Selecting ownership titles by default

When you make a selection within LandInsight and have no other selectable layers enabled (eg. planning applications), we'll attempt to return an ownership title to you by default. This will be the smallest possible freehold title at that location.

Why freehold titles by default?

Titles are the best representation of land ownership, and freehold we feel is a useful starting point for the underlying land ownership.

We appreciate this might not suite everyone. You can update your selection to suite your own individual needs.

Changing this to select leaseholds

If you wish to select the leasehold instead, you can achieve this one of two ways.

  1. You can toggle off freehold selections within the ownership layer controls. This will still return the freeholders for that location, but the selection will work based upon the leasehold and map visualisation will be updated accordingly

  2. You can navigate to the respective leasehold title through a specific leaseholder

Selecting a specific ownership parcel (and not the whole title)

If you want to select a parcel within a multi-parcel title, then you can use a keyboard shortcut to do this.

CMD + CLICK (Mac) or CONTROL + CLICK (Windows) to initiate a Land Assembly, and then once you save you can access details on that specific parcel and not the whole title

Selecting a specific point

If you just want to see what information exists at one specific point, then you can do this by using a keyboard shortcut.

Use OPTION + CLICK (Mac) or ALT + CLICK (Windows) to select a specific point on the map


And, that should be you! Whatever you are attempting to select we've got you covered!
