GPS property line question

[Author Man]

Is there a site where I can punch in the GPS cordinates on my 15 acres and get a printed map of my property? Thx in advance and hello from the western U.P.

Try Google Earth or Mapquest.

goggle earth will show you your gps point when your cursor moves over them. as far as a print out i wouldn't have the foggyist idea, computers really aren't my best friends:lol:

I have a mapping business and there are several ways to accoplish what you want but they have there limitations. The points that you collect with GPS could be anywhere from a few feet off to hundreds of feet off. The accuracy scale on a gps measures how close the gps readings are in relationship to each other not where they truely are on the earth. A mapping grade GPS will typically run in the thousands of dollars and still will only get you within a meter or so. If you want a aerial map of your property and have a good legal description, shoot me a PM and I can tell what I can offer. I have a state wide data base of aerial imagery from 1998 and 2005. I also have a majority of property boundaries.

I also have a majority of property boundaries.

What areas do you have property boundaries for and what format digital or a harcopy plat book? I have had a hard time finding digital data (CAD or SHP) for parcels in rural counties.

I have purchased the plat books. I then scan and geo reference the pages as I need them.

If I have a good legal, with bearings and distances, I can generate a shapefile for the property.

That is the way I do it too. Nice to see another GIS/CAD mapping guy here!
