      Planar coordinates are encoded using coordinate pair.

      Abscissae (x-coordinates) are specified to the nearest 0.000000.

      Ordinates (y-coordinates) are specified to the nearest 0.000000.

      Planar coordinates are specified in survey feet.

      
      

      The horizontal datum used is North American Datum of 1983.

      The ellipsoid used is Geodetic Reference System 80.

      The semi-major axis of the ellipsoid used is 6378137.000000.
