CADASTRE--U.S.A.

Existing methods of land-plan development in America and elsewhere are examined. The possibility of inclusion of existing data in a new land record system is considered. Accuracy requirements are reviewed and realistic standards of tolerances suggested. A step-by-step procedure of creating a cadastre follows. Old plans, new surveys, parcel identifiers, monumentation, filing of field notes, survey plan, and the cadastral map are briefly described and supported by illustrations. /Author/
