(b)
The definition of subdivision
(b)

Explanation of Solution
Subdivision survey is a method in which a larger land which is already surveyed is divided into smaller segments. The land can be divided in one or two segments only. This type of survey is useful when a new city or town is planned.
A closed traverse including all the corners is considered and furthermeasurements are carried out.
(c)
The definition of practical location.
(c)

Explanation of Solution
Practical location is an equity which allows the parties to fix the location of their boundary that is different from the boundary mentioned by the surveyor.
The general conditions for a practical location are:
- The record boundary should be unknown.
- The boundary should be fixed by walls, building lines, fences or monuments.
- The parties in interest should assure that the boundary so located is accepted and recognized.
(d)
The definition of adverse possession.
(d)

Explanation of Solution
Adverse possession is a legal process to gain ownership of the property by occupying the land or a part of the land based on thehistory of possession or the use of land without the permission of the owner.
A part of theneighbor’s land, street or footpath can be claimed if it has been used continuously for many years.
