Application Number: 10/051,000
15 wherein, the blocks contained in the sections of Regions 1, 2, 3, and 4
are each subdivided into a multiplicity of land property parcels whose latitudinal
and longitudinal dimensions are 1/3 degree each, whereby such dimensions
correspond to a nominal linear value in the range of about 6 miles by 6 miles in the
mid-latitude regions of the moon;
16 wherein, the sections of Polar Regions 5 and 6 are each subdivided into
6 blocks of approximately equal size, each block bounded by pairs of 15 degree-
spaced-lines of longitude and 45 degree-spaced-lines of latitude;
17 wherein, the blocks contained in the sections of Polar Regions 5 and 6
are each subdivided into land property parcels whose latitudinal dimension is 1/3
degree, corresponding to a linear value of about 6 miles;
18 wherein, the longitudinal angular dimension of a desirably square parcel
will vary with the latitude location of a parcel in order to compensate for the
decreasing linear separation of the lines of longitude as they converge towards the
lunar poles;
19 wherein, a calculation is made to determine what integer value of parcel
longitudinal dimension, in terms of degrees and/or minutes of angle, results in an
integer number of parcels having a linear width of the order of 4 to 6 miles;
20 establishing the use of map and photographic imagery, in paper and/or
digital electronic form, as part of the documentation package, that have been
determined to be publicly available from the U.S. Government;
21 wherein, such imagery is used to develop the imagery content of a
documentation package;
22 wherein, such imagery content includes three pairs of map and
photograph of similar size and intended to be suitable for framing; with imagery
scaled in accordance with a sequence which provides a lunar global view and a
large area view indicating the general location of the lunar land parcel, and a local
area view indicating, in more detail, the location and boundary of the lunar land
parcel;
23 establishing a computer-useable database, herein defined as a Master
Map and Chart Set of the Lunar Tract, of all parcel locations, as determined from
lunar subdivision into the area sequence of regions, sections, blocks, and parcels;
24 establishing an inventory of individual lunar parcels, to be drawn from the
above parcel locations database;
25 wherein, for each parcel, a documentation package containing the Deed
of Claim and its associated location-oriented imagery is developed, and
assembled in paper or computer disc format;
26 establishing the offering for sale of a documentation package for
individual lunar parcels;
