58-20a01. Kansas coordinate system of 1983. The system of plane coordinates which has been established by the national ocean survey/national geodetic survey (formerly the United States coast and geodetic survey) or its successors for defining and stating the geographic positions or locations of points on the surface of the earth within the state of Kansas […]
58-20a02. Same; use in land descriptions. As established for use in the north zone, the Kansas coordinate system of 1983 shall be named. In any land description in which it is used, it shall be designated the “Kansas coordinate system 1983 north zone.” As established for use in the south zone, the Kansas coordinate system […]
58-20a03. Same; plane coordinate values. The plane coordinate values for a point on the earth’s surface used to express the geographic position or location of such point in the appropriate zone of this system, shall consist of two distances expressed in meters and decimals of a meter when using the Kansas coordinate system of 1983. […]
58-20a04. Same; describing land tracts, use of coordinate system. Descriptions of tracts of land by reference to subdivisions, lines or corners of the United States public land survey, or other original pertinent surveys, are hereby recognized as the basic and prevailing method for describing such tracts. Whenever coordinates of the Kansas coordinate system are used […]
58-20a05. Same; tracts in more than one zone. When any tract of land to be defined by a single description extends from one into the other of the above coordinate zones, the position of all points on its boundaries may be referred to either of the two zones, the zone which is used being specifically […]
58-20a06. Same; coordinate system, defined. For purposes of more precisely defining the Kansas coordinate system of 1983, the following definition by the national ocean survey/national geodetic survey is adopted: The “Kansas coordinate system of 1983 north zone (zone code 1501)” is a Lambert conformal conic projection of the North American datum of 1983, having standard […]
58-20a07. Same; limitation. The use of the term “Kansas coordinate system of 1983 north zone” or “Kansas coordinate system of 1983 south zone” on any map, report of survey, or other document shall be limited to coordinates based on the Kansas coordinate system as defined in this act. History: L. 1995, ch. 80, § 7; […]
