<stepDesc>The county boundaries were generated from the updated 1:24,000 scale Public Land Survey System (PLSS) grid by merging the PLSS polygons, which made up each county, into a single polygon.
The Platte - Buchannan county line was adjusted to a series of surveyed points that were based on a survey performed under contract with the Missouri Land Survey Program, August 18, 2003. Missouri Land Survey microfilm location - 165/1047 - 165/1048.
The Montgomery - Gasconade county line was adjusted based on the tax mapping from both counties and the use of aerial photography. There is a slight difference between the two counties with the discrepancy appearing to be where Quick Creek enters the Missouri river.</stepDesc>

<stepDesc>Corrections were made to the Missouri Public Land Survey System (PLSS) grid and simultaneously to the Township grid, county boundary and state boundary data sets.
The State Boundary was corrected in Township 23 North, Range 17 East. Based on GLO plat book 18 at page 17, July 12, 1843. Survey of sections 1, 2, 11 in Mississippi County Record Book 10 at pages 126 and 127, dated November 29, 1929. Sections 10, 11, 14, 15, in Mississippi County Surveyor Record Book 5 at pages 124 and 125, dated April 10, 1956. Section 26 in Mississippi County Surveyor Record Book 2 at pages 58 and 59, dated July 6, 1882.
Adjusted a portion of the county boundary between Butler and Dunklin County and Butler and Stoddard County. As defined in Missouri statute 46.061, 'thence east along the southern boundary of the state to the middle of the main channel of the St. Francis river; thence up the middle of the main channel thereof to the place of beginning.' Adjustment was made based on NAIP 2012 Arial photography.
Adjusted a portion of the county boundary between Butler and Stoddard county in Township 23 North, Range 8 East, based on GLO plat and county tax mapping.
Corrected a portion of the county boundary between New Madrid and Stoddard county, Township 23 North, Range 13 East, section 7 and Township 23 North, Range 12 East, section 12. Based on GLO and possession lines.
