DPUG Meeting – May 16, 2013 Jerry Corr Elizabeth Crawley Habitat Management, Inc.
Overview • Why we undertook this project • Need in Market to Improve Cadastral Data but • Limited Budgets • Help Clients to Improve Land Maps • Find a Better, Faster, Cheaper Way to Improve Coordinates. • Survey Grade not Required • Identify Areas Where Survey is Required
Current Situation • Increasing Accuracy Requirements • Survey Data of Undefined or Insufficient Accuracy • 200 Year Old Documents • Survey Data Digitized from Topographic Maps • Well Locations Calculated from Footages / QQs • Lease Boundaries and Wells Aligned to Legacy Grids
GCDB Geoprocessing Issue • GCDB Mismatches between Big Horn and Johnson counties
Project Objectives • Is this a Feasible Idea? • Rapid Data Acquisition • Timely Data Acquisition • Improved Metadata • Improve Schema Design • Photographs • Supplemental Information (State Board) • Corner Quality Information
Business Drivers • Need to Improve Data • Fit to Imagery • Publish Maps with Ownership on “Right Side” of Street. • Establish Published Corners / Control Points on the Map. • Proper Schema • Photographs • Create a “Regulatory Grid” • Improve Data to Meet Increased Regulatory Spacing Requirements.
Phase 1 Littleton: • Out of 49 section corners: • 7 found, 8 unidentified • Discrepancies between 6.5-80ft East of Boulder • 39 wells • Discrepancies between 0.8-10.5ft • One was plugged and reclaimed
T 1N R 66W Ft. Lupton
Findings • Out of 49 section corners: • 30 found • 7 were calculated from witness monuments • Discrepancies between 8.324-103.15ft • Average discrepancy = 32.548ft • 11 out of 55 were outside the error of 40ft • 2 were double marked
Oil/Gas Wells Ft. Lupton
Findings • Number of wells used for the study: 49 • Discrepancy Range: 0.336-23.216ft • Average Discrepancy = 6.564ft • 20 wells that have been plugged
