ISC is the custodian of the Provincial Land Survey system.  This system is an orderly, grid-patterned layout that defines boundaries of land in Saskatchewan, allowing for unique identification of each parcel and serving as the foundation for the description of land parcels for the Land Titles Registry.  As custodian, we are responsible for maintaining the integrity of the system through high standards of accountability and management.

We offer a variety of services related to our role as custodian of the survey system - plan examination and approval services, and search services.

Plan Examination and Approval Services

All legal survey and descriptive plans must be examined and approved prior to becoming part of the Land Surveys Directory. In this way, we are able to ensure the integrity of the system is maintained.

While there are a variety of plan types that ultimately form the Land Surveys Directory, the most common are subdivision plans.  These plans relate to the changing boundaries of a surface or mineral parcel of land.  Common uses for subdivision plans are residential lot developments and new roads.

Check out the Help area of our website for more information on the different policies, acts and regulations that govern our provision of these services.

Search Services

ISC offers several online services associated with Survey Plans to allow for quick access to images of approved plans and related documents.  These services allow you to find answers to such common questions as:

• What are the legal dimensions of a specific parcel of land?
• Where are the monuments for my property located?

We offer the ability to search both graphically and by entering specific search criteria like urban municipality or plan number.
