1. Survey Peg Identification

A QR sticker or plate on a survey peg links to: the land parcel ID, the surveyor's record, the date the peg was placed, and the coordinates in WGS84 or local coordinate system.

2. Land Registry Access

A QR links to the land registry title record for the adjoining parcel. Neighbours or developers can verify ownership and easements without a formal title search request.

3. Dispute Evidence

In a boundary dispute, a QR-linked survey record with timestamps and GPS coordinates provides a credible chain of evidence for mediation or legal proceedings.

4. Durability

Survey pegs in the ground need to survive decades of weather, mowing, and animal contact. Use stainless steel plates with engraved QR codes, or UV-stable acrylic encased in the peg cap.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does a QR on a boundary peg carry legal weight?

The QR is an access link to the survey record, which carries the legal weight. The QR itself is a reference tool.

What if the survey peg QR links to a record that has since been superseded?

Use a URL with the parcel ID that always returns the current authoritative record from the land registry, not a static snapshot.
