ORS 93.312 Oregon Coordinate System

As used in this section, “Oregon Coordinate System” means a coordinate mapping system, composed of three coordinate projection mapping systems known as:

The Oregon State Plane Coordinate System of 1927;

The Oregon State Plane Coordinate System of 1983; and

The Oregon Coordinate Reference System.

A description of land that contains coordinates associated with the position of a point on a land boundary must:

Use the Oregon Coordinate System;

Use one specified zone and system for the entire description;

Include coordinate system datum with epoch and zone designation;

Use coordinates established by a survey connection to the National Spatial Reference System;

Reference a survey of record that reports the accuracy of coordinates at a 95 percent confidence level; and

Include distances, bearings, areas and other boundary elements.

The Department of Transportation shall adopt rules implementing the Oregon Coordinate System.
