Easement can be defined as a non possessory right to use and/or enter onto the real property of another without possessing it. It can be further defined as a right, which the owner of a particular land enjoys over an adjacent property, which he does not possess. It is actually a right over a property belonging to someone else and not to the person claiming easement.
