@holy-cow As Mark said, not going to happen, it is in park. It was a hassle for our PLSO chapter to arrange a cleanup a couple of years ago. It is g...

@gary_g I'm not sure who wrote this but I really love the 'County Assessor Plat Map' image. It is nice that the Douglas County, Oregon Assessor has h...

Well, that doesn't work in Oregon. The terms 'lot' and 'parcel' are defined in ORS 92. A 'lot' is created by a subdivision while a 'parcel' is creat...

The Willamette Meridian here in Oregon and Washington. The monument was set in the most survey unfriendly location you can think of. It's in a steep...

@pls8xx I would have thought that your actions would have greatly appreciated. What would their response have been if you let a stranger take their m...

Just a normal wave on the northern Pacific coast.

While C3D does not include the 'for GNSS', it does include NAD83 (plain jane); HPGN (HARN) NAD83; NSRS 2007 NAD83; and NSRS 2011 NAD83. I don't see a...

That probably has something to do with the seed file that is being used. Bently is actually pretty good at units as long as the user specifies them a...

@bstrand There's the rub. The stamped plans rarely have that kind of information. Modern plans are merely a cartoon used to get plans permitted an...

I'll second John on the UDM pro. @garyg, I'm a little confused on your statement of control over the router. I'm going to assume you are referring t...

Back on the OP, I just finished off my last box of 3/4" PK nails a couple of weeks ago. If you are interested Mark, it is marking a retaining wall al...

@jim-frame Good old Paul, someone needs to broadcast reruns. As a young kid I can remember all of the pattern makers at my family's shop sitting arou...

@hoosier_surveyor You're probably more precise than the Disto's compass. Back in the day we used to call them a 'wing ding'.

Not to be annoying, but this is the reason that scaled coordinates grid coordinates need to be truncated. It is humorous that the argument against tr...

Try distance-distance offset.

Could be, but I can show you multiple examples in newish sub-divisions around here. They may not be quite as extreme, say 6" to a foot, but they were...

GC's rarely provide a comprehensive scope for layout needs. Based on several decades of experience, I prepare a very detailed proposal listing every ...

I can see being a little reluctant set a 30"IR flush, but why not at least get it solid and saw it off?

My comment on passive marks not being referenced to NAD83(CORS96) refers only to marks in the NSRS. NGS did not publish, to my knowledge, any passive...
