"Locations based only on the street address, driving directions, or other location information provided on the well record are considered unlocated records and have no x, y coordinates, only township, range, section, and quarter-quarter-quarter sections (if estimated).
"The x, y coordinates are from the calculated centroid of the smallest possible individual polygon that matched the water well location data. Some records have no quarter sections and/or some of the polygons could not be subdivided, so the centroid of the section was used for those water well records. These are the least accurate coordinates and in a regular one-mile square section the x, y coordinates will generally be within a half-mile of the office located section, on irregular sections, the distance may be greater. The best location values are on the records with quarter-quarter-quarter sections and typically will be within 150 meters of the office located quarters.
"A small number of the data points were checked for accuracy and methods used should keep the x, y coordinates within the proper section in most cases. However, due to the complexity and in cases redundancy in the public land survey system for Indiana some x, y pairs may not be located in the proper section or even the proper county. Other sources of error may be caused by misinterpretation of the driving directions or office locating. Several areas have different survey systems than the Congressional TRS (Clark Military Grant, Military Donations, Meridian Road Lines, Indian Treaties etc.) and no attempt at this time was made to provide centroids for these areas.
"Located records were primarily field located based on the location identified on the USGS 1:24,000 7.5 minute series topo map by the field locator. In some cases the structure or subdivsion may not be on the map and location is based on topography. So some error may be inherent in the field locations and points placed on the map ( a single point on a map may be 100 feet across). The scale is based USGS 1:24,000 7.5 minute series topographic maps. However, in most cases locations of mislocated wells can have large errors, with the reported locations having no meaning."
