Cadastral Surveying for Land Managers is a realization of an idea that was born in 1994 in the Department of Civil Engineering of the Polytechnic of the University of Malawi, when I started teaching surveying to Civil Engineering, Environmental Health, Quantity Surveying and Architecture students. During the first few years as an assistant lecturer, I observed that most of the books were based on imperial measurements and did not tackle the procedures of carrying cadastral surveying in an African context and Malawi in particular. For example, distances were in feet and all examples were given only for western situations. Additionally, most of the books were either too simplistic or too complicated for most of the students. Cadastral Surveying for Land Managers aims to provide essential principles, observational and computational techniques required by the cadastral surveyor in this technological age. The book defines land, land tenure systems and their evolution; cadastre land registration systems; cadastral surveying, the evolution of cadastral surveying system in Malawi, practical procedures of carrying out cadastral surveys in Malawi and their theoretical background.
