Which of the following is not a type of information that is commonly expressed by parcel segment labels?

• A. Length
• B. Layer
• C. Bearing
• D. Station

Answer: (B)

Parcel segment labels are meant to convey geometry and location information about the boundary line. They typically show how long the segment is (length), the direction of the line (bearing), and station or chainage references that help locate the segment along an alignment. Layer, on the other hand, is a drawing attribute that indicates which layer the segment sits on, not a measurement or positional detail of the parcel itself. Because of that, layer is not a type of information commonly expressed by parcel segment labels, making it the best choice for what isn’t typically shown.
