Sounds like a fun project, I'm guessing that you're going to prorate the 1/4 and use that location for the terminus of the E_W centerline. Beyond doin...

I had one guy move a corner, he beat the cap back into the ground with a hatchet,,,,,,,,the sharp side. That one was easy the old hole was still there...

OG plat is the oil and gas plat. It often times has more information that can be useful. If there isn't OG development in the area there probably isn...

Heck, even the BLM has placed more emphasis on the idea of senior lines deferring to junior monuments.

Meander corner online? Or witness corner? I would use the two as angle breaks in the section line, prorate the 1/4 corner in the lake and figure out t...

Good question, but we aren't even at the XY stage, strictly trying to get the Lat, Longs to mesh.

I wonder that also. If I input the Lt, Lg the client sent me I'm NE 7' from my NAD83 position. If I input the ITRF # it's WNW 4.7'. None of that makes...

I'm still looking into when I have time. I looked at some Trimble videos, which weren't very helpful. It seems that I need to have RTX to make sense ...

I actually had a discussion with a surveyor who said that since the standard rule from the board was a 1:5000 minimum accuracy standard for rural surv...

The default is to hold the monument (physical, not virtual). There needs to be a very good reason to reject one. Small little discrepancies aren't ...

Yes, I processed it with OPUS, it matches my CORS calculation by 0.0001" both lat and long, which is basically .01'. The ITRF lat, long is shifted 4....

Hopefully the shown measurements are to the stone bound and the .03', .06' with the little arrows are to the virtual pin cushion, of course those nota...

Yep, make it easy, two bars for one corner and all the trouble disappears. LOL It took years to clean mine up, it's still a bit messy on the GIS.

My first one of those was between Sections 27 and 28. Ask the surveyor which bar was the 1/4 corner and he says which section are you in? The bars we...

I didn't know he moved to Kansas.

I have to completely agree with Norm. It's all about mathmagic. In the early 90's I did a survey for a client; the northeast corner of a Section was ...

An LDP for that type of site would be simple to construct in Trimble, if that's what you're using. Put the surface at the elevation mean of the site, ...

I will be searching for a solution, I know a couple of colleagues using RTX and will be calling them to see how they handle ITRF vs NAD83 coordinates ...

If you're working in state plane there should be nothing you need to do about TS shots except to make sure that all your Data Collector programs are p...
