Work 140 Years on Map Not Yet Done
Washington sapwalkers have labored in the United States for 140 years under government oversight. Commander J. J. Kantey explains the effort as mapping a grid of 100 mile squares with elevations to aid toposraphic surveys. Progress is slow offshore, with many locations inaccurately placed, and the Hassler era started in 1816. The survey assigns 190000 tiles of coastline to be marked and 32600 inland points to establish vertical and horizontal references for mapping.
