[QUOTE="Dave King, post: 84380, member: 3"] I'm trying to find an article that describes the method used to survey land (U. S. of A. model). Specifically I'm looking for a determination (yeah or nay) on whether land is surveyed using a 'flat earth' model. The answer should allow me to prove or disprove that a nice flat field in Kansas that's 1 mile x 1 mile (on a tape measure... a long tape measure)is a section and also show that a steep mountainside in Montana (60 degree angle) that's 1 mile across the mountain and 2 miles up the mountain slope (using my long tape measure) is also 1 section. Thanks [/QUOTE]
