Secondary GIS Land Position Network

Crews from Boulder County and participating BASIC members recovered, marked and described 491 survey positions in eastern Boulder County:

  • 406 Public Land Survey System positions (section corners, quarter corners, and centers)
  • 9 property or subdivision monuments
  • 20 witness corners
  • 56 survey monuments

Merrick and Company observed these points in the fall and winter of 1999 and 2000 using GPS Real Time Kinematic (RTK) techniques. The horizontal positional accuracy of the coordinates is estimated at +/- 8 centimeters. Vertical accuracy was not included. These coordinates are GIS Land Positions, not survey coordinates. 

Secondary GIS Landpoints

The target points were the universe of aliquot corners on or near paved roads and existing survey control points.

Descriptions of each secondary GIS landpoint of interest is located on the secondary locator map. These data can be downloaded, free of charge, from this website.

Coordinate Information

Coordinate information for the 491 primary network control points is available in shapefile format in Boulder County's standard projection and coordinate system. It has a scale of 1:24,000 and is in Colorado State Plane (zip file format), North Zone projection, based on the 1992 adjustment of the 1982 North American Datum (HPGN NAD 83/92).

The shapefile attribute dataset includes a number of additional attributes for the points.
