I had an internship at the city where I lived for a short period, so I could look at the city surveyors datum points....
I also have had some training in surveying, and I have access to equipment. So it was just a matter of going out and laying out everything. My property also already had two pins which I found with a bit of bush wacking.
There should be some pins located on your property which identify the boundaries. If not you can pay to have someone come out and resurvey the lot from other points, and they will charge you to do this. That surveyor will then drop a series of pins to mark the boundaries of your property. It's useful to have for things like landscaping and building fences or for additions to your house (making sure you don't encroach onto setbacks or easements).
