Field Name | Datatype | CDCS name | NOTE: |
Polygon_ID | Long String | none | Space-delimited list of GCDB_IDs around the minimal polygon, in correct sequence. |
Area_point_X | Numeric | none | Easting value in state plane coordinate of point within polygon. Datum and projection is defined in DEF file. Format: #######.### |
Area_point_Y | Numeric | none | Northing value of state plane coordinate of corner within polygon. Datum and projection is defined in DEF file. Format: #######.### |
Nominal_description_text | String | none | Verbose description of nominal aliquot location of polygon, incl. official and calculated acres. Example: SECTION 31 LOT 1 HAS 42.0 ACRES (COOR.) 39.6 ACRES (PLAT) REPLACES NW 1/4 OF THE NW 1/4 |
Mer_Tier_Range | String | none | Values identifying unique township that polygon defines or is within. Ex: "M14T0170NR0112E" translates to "Township 17 North, Range 11½ East, of the Gila and Salt River Base and Meridian". |
Section | String | none | Values identifying section that polygon defines or is within. Ex : "Sec_007" translates to "Section 7". |
Survey_type | Char | none | Broad categorization of parcel type. Typical values: A=aliquot; L=lot; M=patented mineral claim or millsite; H=homestead entry; T=tract; U=unsurveyed. |
Survey_number | 5-Digit | none | An integer that, along with Mer_Tier_Range_Sec and Survey_type, uniquely defines the survey that created the parcel that the polygon defines or is within. The value for Lot 11 would be 11 |
Survey_suffix | Char | none | An optional char, that when appended to Survey_number and associated with Mer_Tier_Range_Sec and Survey_type, uniquely identifies the parcel that the polygon defines or is within. |
Nominal_code | Char | none | A code ranging from A to P that defines which of the sixteen parts of a section that the polygon defines or is within. An additional value Q pertains to all parts, in cases where section subdivision has not taken place. Additional characters R,S,T,U and V,W,X,Y are being considered as appendages to the nominal_code to allow definition of aliquot parcels subdivided down below the 1/16th (40 acre) parcel level. |
Official_acreage | Numeric | none | The official acreage of the parcel that the polygon defines or is within. Units: acres |
Survey_note | Char | none | A character code that supplies a bookkeeping function, usually to further describe the status of the parcel. Ex: D=do not add acreage |
