How do they find out how much Acreage a plot of land has?

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.
