The term that refers to a set of records about parcels of land with spatial reference and various attributes used mainly for taxation is called what?

Cadastre is a comprehensive record of land parcels with their precise locations and a set of attributes such as size, ownership, value, land use, and rights, designed primarily for taxation and land administration. It provides the basis for valuing properties and collecting property taxes, tying together where parcels are and what they contain. The cadastral survey refers to the field process of measuring and mapping parcel boundaries to create or update these maps, not the full set of records. The land register records ownership and rights over parcels but isn’t mainly about taxation data. A parcel data system is a general database concept for parcel information, not the official tax-focused registry.
