Cadastral Map - A map which shows the boundaries of subdivision of land, usually with the distances, bearings and the areas of individual tracts, for purposes of describing and recording ownership.
Some researchers, but mostly government officials involved with the project or subject to its effects discuss experiences and difficulties in different states and regions, the digitization of Cadastral maps, and the land information system.
It is not possible to be more precise, as the surviving historical records are silent on when the Survey Branch decided to produce its cadastral map series with the scale of one inch to two miles (1:126 720).
