Ben Dauphinee:

The fun of owning rural property is that knowing where your land actually starts and ends is a guess usually. Sure, you have a parcel description, and maybe even an online service with “official” GIS boundaries (for us here in New Brunswick, this is GeoNB). However, since it’s in the middle of the forest, the odds of you having an actual surveyed and monumented boundary line are very low. Which also means the odds of the online boundaries being correct isn’t great either. This post is a dump of all the experiences I’ve had over the past 3 months, on my quest for accurate mapping.
