C.5 Boundary and title interpretation

Across all jurisdictions:

registration and mapping products have stated purposes and limitations;

a mapped feature is not automatically a legal boundary;

absence from a land register is not proof that no right exists;

registered and unregistered evidence can coexist over the same land;

rights can have separate horizontal, vertical and temporal extents; and

land referencing records should preserve source differences rather than silently reconciling them.
