Someone's staking improvements in a block where just about all the recorded surveys in the last 10 years are mine. Not a big deal as far as I'm concerned, but I'm wondering why the field crew felt it necessary to set the nail and shiner on top of my rebar and cap.
Sry man. Know that is hurtful. Just shows we have a long way to go....
Near the bottom of the frame do I see cross hatching from a hammer head and possibly a hole where a nail has been removed?
Sonofa........!!
Hey, Jim! The Koordinate Kowboy probably calculated that the true position of your point should have been S 00 degrees, 02' 47.66784385" W at a distance of 0.0894663 feet from where you have it!!
Tighten up......:-D
And it looks like the prism pole point marks are all over the place!
your position just wasn't good enough for his traverse point.
Jim, that nail and shiner have a license number on it?
That was ...
me 😉

Jim,
Just take a deep breath and admire the idiocy. When I practiced in California LLS's were outnumbered and a incredible amount of work was done by Pre-1982 authorized to practice land surveying Civil Engineers. Some good, most mostly bad. What was common was to find the extremely stupid CE's that would set monuments (pincushion) next to a existant original corner of a parcel map and note it as 0.04'N and 0.03'E on their map. The smarter one's would just make notations of 0.03'N 0.02'E on their plats (which were not of record). It's o.k. Jim....there are presently still 11,120 Pre-1982 authorized to practice CE's v about 4,200 LLS (Licensed Land Surveyors) in your state. Whenever I contacted a LLS in California I usually had no problem discussing a boundary issue. Trying to talk to many CE's was a click of the phone or became a discussion similar to Tarzan bringing out the sticks to talk to the chimpanzees. 😛
Pablo B-)
Looks like it got some urban survey graffitti too.
I've been pincushioned by surveyors who were in grade school when I set my monument. Can you beat that?
ww co pls
- Have a nice day! Or, may your monument prevail over some guy's touchscreen.
There's the 0.04'!
Glad somebody finally figured it out!
😉
Ouch that hurts to be pincushioned by a much inferior monument! That only adds insult to injury.
i estimate 0.068' difference
how far away is the pk and washer? as far as I am concern if I missed you by that much I would worry my having a bad tribrach, rod bubble or my instrument is out of whack
[sarcasm]The shiner is on top. That makes it correct, doesn't it?[/sarcasm]
> Jim, that nail and shiner have a license number on it?
No number, but it's just one of many nails set as construction stakes on an alley ROW line. But if they're going to disagree with my monuments, they ought to file a map showing how they got where they got.

Maybe the monument was not even considered.
(no offense)
Must be that tectonic drift I'm hearing more and more about.
Predicting horizontal velocities for a user-specified location is one of two primary functions supported by HTDP.
You need to get out there and reset your points more often, in order to keep up!
That was ...
:good:
We are surrounded and the odds aren't good....
i estimate 0.068' difference
I would worry that I didn't know what the hell I was doing!
Just set a bigger corner from now on. 🙂
