[FIT] [OGIC] Geodetic Control FIT - Call in information

Wed Feb 23 11:37:24 PST 2011

OK, great, thanks!  I just didn't want to take up everyone's time if we
didn't need a meeting.  Sounds like the meeting is on for tomorrow.
Thanks!

Cy,

I agree with you that the Senate Bill 877 won't directly impact the GIS
community.  

The main thrust of the Senate Bill is to amend ORS Chapter 93,
Conveyancing and Recording, to make the new Oregon Coordinate Reference
System (OCRS) allowable for legal property descriptions that are filed
with the counties, just as State Plane Coordinates are presently legal
for that purpose, and to move the definitions of the legacy State Plane
Coordinates to a new adminstrative rule, where they will reside along
with definitions of the new OCRS.      

Making this amendment to ORS 93 also requires minor housekeeping
amendments to ORS Chapter 209, County Surveyors, and ORS Chapter 390,
State & Local Parks, etc..,  only because both Chapters 209 and 390 now
"point" to ORS 93 for the definition of the legacy State Plane
Coordinate systems; consequently, amendments are needed simply to
"repoint" to the definitions of the legacy State Plane Coordinates in
the new Administrative Rule.   Nothing else in ORS 209 or 390 will
change.

The main impact of the new OCRS on the GIS community won't be the legal
changes in SB 877 outlined above, rather the impact will be the addition
of the OCRS parameters to future software packages from GIS and GPS
manufacturers, thus promoting our common goal of sharing geospatial data
from various sources, various accuracies, and various coordinate systems
along with adequate metadata.  

That being said, SB 877 is still not written quite the way ODOT
requested it, and it will be immediately amended upon introduction to
the Senate to fix that.  In addition, there is also a lot of uncertainty
out there in the GIS community about the bill, so I think it would be
fine to have a FIT meeting to update everyone and answer questions
anyone may have.  It would be a pleasure to host a FIT meeting here at
our new office and see you all, or have members use the alternate call
in that Milt has arranged, that is if weather permits a meeting
tomorrow.

Hi folks, I want to check in with you regarding this matter.  My
analysis of SB877 is that it would have no direct impact on the GIS
portion of the geospatial community.  Do you agree?  If so, there may be
no need to have a meeting tomorrow.  Please reply as quickly as you can
after reviewing the bill at the link below.

Subject: [FIT] Geodetic Control FIT - Update

Greetings!

SB 877 has appeared and may be related to LC 3314. Here's a link to it:
http://www.leg.state.or.us/11reg/measpdf/sb0800.dir/sb0877.intro.pdf

We'll have a conference call arranged shortly and will send out that
info as soon as we can.

Hope to see you on Thursday.

Greetings!

Many of you are likely aware of the work that has taken place over the
past few years to develop the Oregon Coordinate Reference System (OCRS).
Legislation is now being developed to implement OCRS and we're please to
offer an opportunity for all interested persons to learn more and ask
questions. 

The original legislation related to this subject, SB 446, has been
pulled and the process has started over with LC 3314.

Please join us for the discussion:

Thursday, Feb. 24,

10:00 to Noon

Silver Creek Conference Room

Oregon Dept of Transportation

4040 Fairview Industrial Dr. SE

Salem, OR 97302

Ron Singh (Chief of Surveys, ODOT) and Ken Bays (Lead Geodetic Surveyor,
ODOT) will present a brief overview of OCRS and then go into detail on
the proposed legislation. There will be ample time for questions.

LC 3314 will soon be available on the Geodetic Control FIT Page:
http://www.oregon.gov/DAS/EISPD/GEO/fit/geodetic_control/geodetic_contro
l.shtml
