Thanks Charles, very useful. Also interesting would be:
M. Pommiés: Manuel de l'ingénieur du cadastre. Paris 1804
(http://books.google.nl/books?id=CTIVAAAAQAAJ&pg=RA3-PA30&source=gbs_selected_pages&cad=0_1#PPP1,M1)
the official manual for the Napoleonic cadastre. More practical than
most of the works you mention, but very important, as it forms the base
for most cadastral surveys in continental Western Europe in the first
half of the 19th century.
