Remarks

The GeoSurvey engine used for the Least Squares Adjustment, Geometric and COGO computations uses metric units.  In order for the GeoSurvey Engine to make these computations, a conversion must be made if the Cadastral Fabric units differ.

For Example:   If the Cadastral Fabric uses a State Plane coordinate system, the units must be converted in order to for the GeoSurvey engine to make the proper calculations.
