I have a job that is on a tidal creek.?ÿ This is the type of coastal creek where the ground is mucky and you need hip waders.?ÿ I was able to recover all property corners except for one on the creek edge.?ÿ It has either be washed away via hurricanes and storm surge or the salt water has eaten it up. (The other corner along the creek edge was severely corroded, but findable)?ÿ I just assume to set it using VRS since I have plenty of open skies ... almost unheard of in this brushy area.?ÿ ?ÿThoughts?
Check it with another sat configuration.

Unless there's some weird statute or case law in your area of practice governing the use of measurement technology, we can generally set monuments with any method we choose so long as we can prove that we meet statutory positional tolerances.
...assuming of course that we "established and/or retraced in accordance with appropriate boundary law principles governed by the set of facts and evidence found in the course of performing the research and fieldwork."
Sure, if you have not finished you boundary calculations, observe known points and two wood stakes in the swamp within a few feet and at 90?ø to field calculated position of missing corner. Then when you come back, you can cross chain the monumentation in.?ÿ?ÿ
if you have already calculated the boundary, preform a localization with known points and stake the missing corner. And of course, like previously stated, stake an existing point again.?ÿ
