The method will change with the software involved.
The principle is;
image 1: The base. Say the photograph of the property. This is opaque, not translucent.
image 2: The overlay. Say the legal boundaries. This is translucent, you can look through it to the base layer. Usually the overlay will have large blank areas to assist with seeing the base layer.
I would think that the webpage for sixmaps would have this implemented. I have found the imagery layer well aligned with the legal layer at least where I have looked.
