It is used to this day, in spite of abounding inaccuracies and errors stemming from early topographic measurements. The land survey system was introduced in 1910 and was based on the Dominion Land Survey algorithm. Furthermore, the surface and bottom coordinates of a well are defined as distances from the closest sectionboundary. This nomenclature is based on the Alberta Township System for wells in Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta and the Peace Country in north-western British Columbia. Provincial governments in Western Canada regulate the naming of oil and gas wells, by assigning unique well identifiers(UWID) to each drilled hole. Initially used to define land for agriculture purposes, the system was later adopted in land sales and leases for hydrocarbon exploration rights. The Alberta Township System is a land survey system used in Western Canada to divide land in 1 square mile sections.
