RECOVERY----ARRA- COLORADO CORNER COLLECTION

The Bureau of Land Management has utilized a Blanket Purchase Agreement and awarded the subject order to Premier Data Services. A Modification (0002) was issued Sep. 21, 2010 to utilize an option line item in the original agreement (L10PB00462) to complete approximately 300 additional corners under this order. Additional funding in the amount of $154,731.76 is obligated against this order. Below is a description of the requirement. The Bureau of Land Management has been compiling survey, title, and legal land description information to accurately portray the Public Land Survey System (PLSS) and title information in support of parcel based display of geographic information. The Geographic Coordinate Data Base (GCDB) is the digital portrayal of the PLSS and is assembled in a series of working ascii files and a geo-database for publication. This task order is to improve the accuracy of the depiction of the PLSS within GCDB. This task will involve collecting geographic coordinates on approximately 1250 corners of the Public Land Survey System (PLSS) across 125 townships. Most corners will be section corners but some will be mineral survey corners that have not been visited since they were originally set in the 1800s. The goal is to reasonably depict these areas in GCDB.
