Italian cadastral map online: download a parcel map extract in PDF

Already have a parcel in mind? The report checks it against public data, with a source and date for every finding. Open the map → €29 in English or Italian · €39 in both languages

To obtain an Italian cadastral parcel map as a PDF, use Agenzia delle Entrate’s visura della mappa service. The official instructions allow a free request in the reserved area for land you do not own, through Visure catastali di immobili non di proprietà s1. This is a separate output from browsing the cadastral map online.

The PDF helps you keep a dated map with the seller’s documents. It is not the internal floor plan of a house or an on-site boundary survey. Official sources checked on 2 November 2026.

Identify the document before paying for it

An estratto di mappa is a map extract. The authority’s map description, updated on its website on 14 October 2026, describes land-parcel shapes and positions, mapped building outlines and other cartographic features. The ordinary scale it specifies is 1:2000.

The extract can concern one parcel, neighbouring parcels or a map sheet. The online output is a scaled PDF centred on the selected land parcel s1, s2. Do not infer that every building or parcel visible in its surroundings is included in the sale.

A planimetria catastale is different. The authority restricts access to those floor plans to entitled users, delegates or others legally authorised s4. Public availability of a parcel map does not create unrestricted access to the interior plan of someone else’s property.

Obtain the original PDF

Prepare the cadastral municipality, section where applicable, map sheet and parcel. Start from the official online map-extract page, whose service links distinguish holders from other applicants.

1. Sign in to the reserved area through an accepted access method.
2. Find Visure, planimetrie e ispezioni ipotecarie degli immobili.
3. For a property you do not own, choose the non-owned-property service.
4. Locate the land parcel using its complete identifiers and request the map output.
5. Download the PDF and check the sheet, parcel, map frame and document date.
6. Keep the original file with the descriptive extract and the seller’s documents.

The national service excludes Trento and Bolzano s4. If you lack a suitable digital identity, ask the seller or an appropriately commissioned adviser to obtain the required document. Agree any professional charge separately from the described free online map output.

To compare the identified parcel with available territorial map layers, open the TerrenoCheck map. A report costs €29 in one language or €39 in two; read the sample report first.

A PDF extract and a WMS view do different jobs

The authority’s WMS service page describes a WMS 1.3.0 map service that compatible applications can combine with other geographical information. Its service address is not the PDF-request function.

The WMS page describes a limit on simultaneous requests and says a request may need to be repeated s3. A temporary display failure should therefore be investigated as a service issue before drawing a conclusion about the parcel.

If you reproduce the WMS data in a map for your adviser, retain the Agenzia attribution and comply with its stated CC BY 4.0 licence s3. Record the sources of any other layers too. A combined map may bring together information with different dates.

A real regional example: Sardegna’s published data

On 9 February 2026 the Sardegna Geoportal explained its publication of vector cadastral data. The regional administration describes acquiring the Agency’s data in bulk every three months, transforming it and making it available through its viewers and other services or download formats.

That published process establishes a useful finding: opening a regional map today does not mean the underlying cadastral content was acquired today. An access date and a source-update cycle answer different questions. We are not claiming a verified update date for any individual Sardinian parcel.

When two viewers disagree, record which product each uses and inspect its metadata before calling the difference a boundary error. Ask the technical adviser to compare equivalent sources and obtain the appropriate official parcel document.

Understand scale without treating the image as a survey

At a stated scale of 1:2000, one centimetre on a correctly scaled print represents 20 metres. Resizing the PDF for printing or measuring a screen image can break that relationship. Keep the original file and its scale information when sending it to an adviser.

For an expressly illustrative calculation, a 1.5 cm width on a correctly scaled print represents 30 m. That is a reading of a drawing, not a field measurement. It does not establish the legal or physical boundary of an access strip you intend to purchase.

For a fence, disputed edge or narrow access route, ask the technical adviser which survey evidence and documents are needed. Our guide to boundaries and cadastral mapping covers the wider issue.

If you need an earlier map or find a discrepancy

Specify whether the discrepancy concerns the selected parcel, a building outline or an element mentioned in the sale documents. Provide the adviser with the original map and the relevant earlier document. Avoid describing a screenshot from another portal as a dated historical map unless its metadata supports that description.

The official map-service page describes particular historical-map functions for conventioned Sister users. These are distinct from the ordinary citizen request. Ask for the period and product you actually need rather than assuming that a present-day PDF includes every earlier state.

Before committing funds, establish that every parcel included in the offer has been identified. A clear map of one field cannot resolve a missing identifier for another field advertised with it.

Once you have the correct parcel, select it on the TerrenoCheck map for an initial review of available territorial information. The sample report shows its scope. This is preliminary screening and does not replace legal advice or a survey.
