The Term "Oil Filter Landing" - what does it mean?

Hi all,

Just curious if anyone know what the term "Oil Filter Landing" means. I'm looking at oil filter relocation kits and this website mentions the following:

Specifications
Filter thread size: 3/4"-16
Filter landing: 2-1/2", 2-3/4"
Inlet size: 1/2"

I've never heard the term "Filter Landing". I can venture a guess that it's the OD of the filter, then again it could be the OD of the filter gasket.

Thank you in advance,
Crin
