Cory,
We establish section corners from USGS data.
There is a data set available that is section corners.
I think we built one for DeSoto parish from topos.
Parcel maps were drawn on paper in sections; they were sqaure,
predrawn
and the Assessor's Office just drew in parcels. We scanned into .tif
images and saved as section name. I heads up digitized and saved
each
section by section name (SSTTRR, section, township, range.)
Larry Teeters wrote append program that put all the sections together
It created a map of app. 900 sections.
"Good enough" has to be determined by parties involved at time of
planning and implementing project. Accuracy cost; the more accurate you
want the more dollars you pay.
What we were doing for the Assessor's offices was "good enough"; in
fact it is great for there needs.
Carl
