| Title | Section Corners - Pipestone County, Minnesota 2005 | |||
| Abstract | The Section Corner layer contains point features that display the location of the section corners as located by various organizations, but mostly by the Pipestone County Highway Department. The section corners were located using GPS. This information was obtained for use in creating the parcel map of Pipestone County. | |||
| Purpose | The data set was developed to have a digital inventory of the section corners in Pipestone County. Quarter section corners were also located where possible with use of the corner ties and GPS'ed. | |||

| Section 2 | Data Quality Information | Top of full metadata | Top of page | |
| Attribute Accuracy | The accuracy of the section corners are sub centimeter and post processed for correction. Attributes obtained in this layer are created from the hardware used to GPS the section corners and from User entered information. User entered information describes the type of momument and if there are ties located within the monumentation. | |||
| Logical Consistency | Data is topologically correct where intended. | |||
| Completeness | Section Corners are being completed on a project timeline associated with parcel mapping | |||
| Horizontal Positional Accuracy | Accuracy of the data is designed to be sub centimeter but has not been validated against existing section corners. | |||
| Vertical Positional Accuracy | Accuracy of the data is designed to be sub centimeter but has not been validated against existing section corners. | |||
| Lineage | Section corner locating began in 2005. The highway department has been collecting corners based off of the section corner ties recorded at the county courthouse. Certain section and quarter section corners were collected by a private land survey company for use in wind power turbines and is detailed as such. | |||
