We have dual
frequency GPS receivers, which we use to establish
geodetic control for projects, located within
Jackson County. There is usually a charge for this
unless it is a cooperative project.
In addition, this office offers advice to landowners on
ways to resolve surveying related land problems. The
County Surveyor does not do surveys for private
individuals. Should you need the services of a
surveyor, the County Surveyor will help you with
selecting a private surveyor who is familiar with
surveying in Jackson County and would be qualified to
perform your survey.
The County Surveyor is currently working towards re-monumenting
the PLSS section corners in the Town of Bear Bluff
(T21N-R1E). He is also responsible for the maintenance
of damaged corners.
If you know of any damaged
corners in your area, please contact the Land
Information Department. We are currently working
on making County Survey Records Available Online.
