Outline a plot of land on a map
You need to know the coordinates of at least one point in lat/lon degrees. If you don't have any surveying points, you might take coordinates from a GPS unit if the point is visible.
Using QGIS, you could create the other points of the polygon with the Azimuth and Distance Plugin
. Take care to convert the degree-minute bearings into decimal degrees.
With the additional Information, it is easy to locate the points next to the Abuja-Kaduna Highway. I have taken the Nigerian Minna Datum with UTM 32N EPSG:26332. The accuracy of the Minna datum is reported to be about 3 to 6 meters.
For use in Google Earth, you can convert the corner points into KML format in a last step:
