The GCDB Handbook for GIS is a quick reference to the practical applications of the Bureau of Land Management's Geographic Coordinate Database for Geographic Information System users and land surveyors. Because the GCDB is important to GIS in the Public Lands Survey states, GIS users and land surveyors should understand what the GCDB is and how the GCDB affects GIS data alignment and spatial accuracy, and should know how to use the GCDB for a number of GIS and surveying tasks.

The GIS for Surveyors book explains how surveyors use Geographic Information Systems (GIS) technologies to support land surveying activities and how GIS helps surveyors work more effectively and efficiently. Additionally, the book covers how surveyors support GIS data development, integrity, and spatial accuracy. GIS concepts, overviews, and specific examples are presented on a variety of topics related to Geographic Information Systems relevant to land surveying. The book also addresses important issues and helpful applications. Major topics covered are GIS fundamentals, data sources, using GIS in the survey office, using GIS in the field, surveying for GIS, and spatial accuracy considerations.
