I think in both France & Spain the cadastral information has been used largely for mapping buildings and not land-parcels.
In places I know the French cadastral parcel data is difficult to interpret: overlapping parcels; individual buildings as multiple parcels; parcel boundaries not according to the location of the little yellow boundary markers on the ground etc. I presume some of these are artefacts of how the cadastre is maintained by each commune and subsequent digitisation. In some cases cadastral parcels do not seem to be consolidated, so it's impossible to actually derive real property boundaries without some on-the-ground knowledge. I'm pushed to think of lots of things I might do with parcel boundaries: accurate location of urban footpaths is one, nature reserve boundaries another (either directly or because NE data ceases to be encumbered). I don't know how much the parcels will accord with things like field boundaries in rural areas: I'll take a look at the LR Inspire data for S Derbyshire to get an idea.
