In 2011, the State Cartographer’s Office announced a new pilot project to develop an updated and more accurate Public Land Survey System digital dataset for the state of Wisconsin. Beginning with a nine-county sample set, our goal was to develop and test methods to aggregate more accurate local survey information, which could serve as a revision and update to the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources Landnet dataset that was published in the 1990s. As we approach the conclusion of our pilot project, we wish to update the geospatial community as to the results of our pilot project and highlight the significant challenges we faced and adjustments we made to our data model during the integration of multi-county datasets.
