How was the map drawn?
The parcel mapping project was completed by mapping one Public Land Survey System section at a time; research was performed to collect all necessary property descriptions, plats, road plans and other documents. Coordinates were created with COGO software analyzing the legal descriptions. Coordinate points were brought into AutoCAD software for a reference frame to create all line symbols. Each feature comprises a different layer theme. All layers are then processed into Arc/Info where they are divided into unique coverages with a multitude of points and lines. As each section of land was completed, it underwent numerous quality control checks to insure full and complete accuracy with record information and map development standards.
