58-20a03. Same; plane coordinate values.
The plane coordinate values for a point on the earth's surface used to express the geographic position or location of such point in the appropriate zone of this system, shall consist of two distances expressed in meters and decimals of a meter when using the Kansas coordinate system of 1983. One of the distances, to be known as the "Northing" or "N" shall give the position in a north-and-south direction; the other, to be known as the "Easting" or "E" shall give the position in an east-and-west direction. These coordinates shall be made to depend upon and conform to plane rectangular coordinate values for the monumented points of the North American national geodetic horizontal network as published by the national ocean survey/national geodetic survey (formerly the United States coast and geodetic survey), or its successors, and whose plane coordinates have been computed on the system defined in the act. Any such station or point may be used for establishing a survey connection to the Kansas coordinate system of 1983.
