§ 614-38 Coordinate system. [1]

Where the certified survey map is located within a quarter section, the corners of which have been relocated, monumented and coordinated, the certified survey map shall be tied directly to two of the section or quarter corners so relocated, monumented and coordinated. The exact grid bearing and distance of such tie shall be determined by field measurements, and the material and Wisconsin state plane or Waupaca or Shawano County coordinates of the monument marking the relocated section or quarter corner to which the plat is tied shall be indicated on the certified survey map. All distances and bearings shall be referenced to either the Wisconsin State Plane Coordinate System or the Waupaca or Shawano County Coordinate System. Use of the Waupaca or Shawano County Coordinate System is encouraged. If the plat provides county coordinates, then these shall be accurate to four decimal places.
