| Abstract: Represents Geodetic Control Monuments/Network that conforms to Federal Geodetic Control Committee First Order Accuracy Standards for global positioning system horizontal networks. Produced by the Commonwealth of Virginia, Land Surveyor, 4-30-1999. | |||
| Purpose: Geodetic Control Monuments are used by surveyors to locate stations that conform to industry accuracy standards. These ground monuments are used for geodetic control and referencing associated with the City's GIS base mapping projects, i.e. VBMP. | |||
| Supplemental Information: The Ground Monumentation was provided/obtained during the City's original base mapping project in 1999, and has remained little changed in the interim, although a couple stations may have been added to the inventory, and those should be present in this data source. Physical Description of Stations: The stations consist of 3 1/4 inch diameter domed brass alloy disks set in 8 inch diameter concrete posts. The station disks are stamped "City of Richmond Geodetic Control Monument" with the station number and the year 1999. The concrete posts are cast-in-place, 36 inch in depth, adn contain a 5/8 inch diameter reinforcing bar 30 inch in length for stability. Reference and recovery data sheets are available on the City's web site: http://eservices.ci.richmond.va.us/applications/MapLibrary/maps.asp?library=Geodetic_Control_Network | |||
