CADASTRAL SURVEY
What is Cadastral Survey?
Cadastral surveying is a branch of surveying that deals with the measurement and demarcation of land boundaries for legal, administrative, and taxation purposes. Cadastral surveying involves the determination of property boundaries, the creation of land records, and the management of land information systems.
The primary objective of cadastral surveying is to provide accurate and reliable information about land ownership, location, and boundaries. This information is essential for the legal and administrative management of land, including the collection of property taxes, the transfer of land ownership, and the resolution of boundary disputes.
Cadastral surveyors use a variety of instruments and techniques to accurately measure and mark the boundaries of a property. These may include the use of total stations, aerial photography, and other surveying tools. The results of cadastral surveys are typically documented in detailed maps, plans, and legal descriptions that are used to establish property boundaries and ownership.
Cadastral surveying is a critical component of land management, and it plays an important role in ensuring the fair and equitable distribution of land rights and resources. It is used in a variety of contexts, including urban planning, rural land management, and natural resource management.
