Original and published sources produced by the central government are used to show how the institutional work was mainly oriented to the public work and the accumulation of blueprints and sketches that “produced” the provincial space. However, this did not have an effective impact on the building of a registry with tax purposes. Compared to contemporary cases, this one shows how the bureaucratic area that was meant to provide informational capital to the provincial States actually developed different dynamics according to the material and human resources, meeting specific contextual needs. El trabajo aborda la creación y los primeros años del Departamento Topográfico junto con la normativización de la agrimensura con el objeto de pensar las relaciones dialécticas entre saberes, territorio y estatalidad desde un marco empírico. Se trabajan fuentes originales y éditas producidas desde el gobierno central y sus oficinas para mostrar cómo la labor de la institución estuvo predominantemente orientada a las obras públicas y a la acumulación de planos y croquis que “produjeran” el espacio provincial, sin tener incidencia efectiva en la formación de un catastro con fines fiscales. Comparado con otros casos contemporáneos, se evidencia cómo los ámbitos burocráticos que debían aportar capital informacional a los Estados provinciales se desplegaron con dinámicas diferentes según los recursos materiales y humanos disponibles, respondiendo a necesidades coyunturales específicas. Resumo: O trabalho trata da criação e dos primeiros anos do Departamento de Topografia junto com a padronização do levantamento topográfico para pensar as relações dialéticas entre conhecimento, território e Estado a partir de um quadro empírico. Fontes originais e edições produzidas pelo governo central e seus escritórios são utilizadas para mostrar como o trabalho da instituição foi predominantemente orientado para as obras públicas e o acúmulo de planos e esboços que “produziram” o espaço provincial, sem impacto efetivo no formação de um cadastro para efeitos fiscais. Em comparação com outros casos contemporâneos, é evidente como as esferas burocráticas que deveriam fornecer capital informativo aos estados provinciais foram desdobradas com dinâmicas diferentes de acordo com os recursos materiais e humanos disponíveis, respondendo a necessidades conjunturais específicas.
