The office of the Scotts Bluff Surveyor is an elected position. The position of Geographic Information Systems Administrator is an appointed position. The County Surveyor is responsible for maintaining the records of the public land survey system and doing land surveys that involve the lands owned by the county and re-establishment of lost or obliterated corners of the public land survey system.
The development and maintenance of the Geographic Information System (GIS) has been incorporated into the office of the county Surveyor due to the close relationship of the type of information that is maintained in surveying records with the data that is compiled for GIS.
Geographic Information Systems are defined as an organized collection of computer hardware, software, geographic data, and personnel designed to efficiently capture, store, update, manipulate, analyze, and display all forms of geographically referenced information.
