The above map is a cadastral map and it portrays land that is up for sale in Africa. These kinds of maps are really important because they show some land features such as trees, small roads, and waterways as well as property lines. Cadastral maps are great tools because they are able to show boundaries on a map that are not able to be seen on the ground. Unlike in olden times, when land boundaries were very temporal, such as a row of trees or shrubs, that could be possible destroyed in a storm, this map is able to concretely map out what land is up for sale and what it generally looks like.
