4733-37-04 Measurement
Specifications
All measurements shall be made
in accord with the following specifications:
(A)
The
surveyor shall keep all equipment used in the performance of surveying in proper
repair and adjustment.
(B)
Every
determination of distance shall be made either directly or indirectly in such a
manner that the linear error in the distance between any two points (not
necessarily adjacent points) shall not exceed the reported distance divided by
ten thousand (allowable linear error = reported distance divided by ten
thousand) and every angular measurement shall be made in such a manner that the
allowable (directional) error, in radians, shall not exceed the allowable linear
error divided by the reported distance (allowable (directional) error =
allowable linear error divided by reported distance). When the reported distance
is less than two hundred feet, the linear error shall not exceed 0.02 feet. The
reported distance is the distance established by the survey.
(C)
In
all new descriptions and plats of survey, the lengths and directions of the
lines shall be specified so that the mathematical error in closure of the
property boundary does not exceed 0.02 feet in latitudes and 0.02 feet in
departure.
(D)
Surveys
performed using metric measurements shall utilize the metric equivalents based
upon the U.S. survey foot conversion factor.
