Bearings and distances of the individual lots are determined from computations based on the actual ground survey.

• A. Numerical Cadastre
• B. Graphical Cadastre
• C. Cadastral Surveys
• D. Public Land Surveys

Answer: (A)

This describes numerical cadastre. In numerical cadastre, the boundaries and attributes of parcels are represented through computed numerical data (such as coordinates, bearings, and distances) derived from actual ground surveys. The emphasis is on deriving these values by computation from field measurements, rather than plotting directly from the map. Graphical cadastre, by contrast, emphasizes the map itself with lines drawn to scale and the bearings and distances shown on the plan. Cadastral surveys is the overall process of determining parcel boundaries, and Public Land Surveys is a broader term not specific to this numerical approach.
