<abstract>This dataset is intended for read-only use. This dataset represents survey monuments as point features. These data can be used to determine the status of corner monuments. Where possible, monuments are place at their ground position. If the ground position is not available, monuments are placed at the calculated survey network location (see Corner dataset).The purpose of these data is to provide display, identification, and analysis tools for determining current boundary information for Forest Service managers, GIS specialists, and others.</abstract>
<purpose>This dataset represents survey monuments as point features. A monument is a permanent marker placed at the location of a corner. Contemporary permanent monuments can be an aluminum pipe and cap or an iron rod and plastic cap. In the past, original Public Land Survey System (PLSS) surveys often utilized wooden stakes or posts, marked trees, or stones, mounds of rocks, pits, or other less-permanent monuments to mark corners.</purpose>

<attraccr>For boundaries within FS Administrative Forests or Proclaimed Forest areas, the Regional Land Status personnel are responsible for their local data stewardship and maintenance. The overall collection nationwide consists of 100% attribute accuracy based on currentness and completeness.</attraccr>

<logic>Quality control measures taken: this feature class is populated by an automated translation process from the source feature class that is edited and maintained by the data stewards. Only stewards with the proper role grants can edit the data. The application used for editing has built in controls to only allow valid geometry and domains to control attribute integrity.</logic>
