When I was driving home from work today I noticed a for sale sign for a plot of land that said “+ or – 2.9 Acres.” It had me wondering how they came to that number. Im sure lots of plots of land for sale are sold in squares, but I live in a very old state so property lines must be all over the place.

Property lines can be all over the place. It’s the job of a surveyor to figure them out, mark them, measure them, and plot them. Once plotted, the drafting software can calculate the area of that plot. It used to be a manual process to draw the plot on paper and using geometry to estimate the area.
