GeoConnexion: Boundary Solutions to Get National Parcel Database Patent
The European GIS publication reports the United States Patent Office will issue patent #7,912,880 entitled "Computerized National Online Parcel-level Map Data Portal" (NPDP™) to Boundary Solutions, Inc. (BSI) of Mill Valley, California.
"This patent is for locating a street address by displaying the boundary of the parcel in which it is located within a national multi-state database. The claims of the new patent are directed to monetizing this process."
The company page on the patent says to come back on March 21 for details. I found nothing on USPTO website on the patent but here's the application for the patent from 2009. BSI also has a 2006 patent (updating a 2002 patent) on a similar invention (press release).
