Cadestral Map: Los Angeles, California


Cadestral maps are maps that display real-estate or different land ownerships of a particular region. By using coloring and shading these maps are able to establish type of land and who the owner is, whether it be state or privately owned. In this cadestral map of the city of Los Angeles, different colors represent different land types, for example, green is rural, blue is water. If you go to the web page where this image is located you can zoom in on any particular area and read who owned this land during the time this map was made.
