Quarter Section 1in = 400 feet

Quarter-Quarter Section 1in = 200 feet

 

The following area scales may be used for direct acreage readings from Aerial Survey Maps to 660feet to the inch. Agencies of the US Dept of Agriculture, Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation Services (ASCS), Soil Conservation Service and many other governmental agencies use 660 scaling in their plotting.

A-11 Area Scale (above)

A 2"x 6-1/4" scale for quick plotting, detail drawing, estimating number of acres in a given irregular area, plus accurate measurement of land. Scaled 1" to 660', 8" to 1 mile, 1 sq inch to 10 acres

 

A-31 Area Scale

A 2-3/4"x 5" scale which performs like the A-11, but also includes an inch scale in tenths and a 1320 scale.

 

A-29 Area Scale
