Arguing the legal points of a good boundary case is FUN and instructive!! This six hour online course presents interesting land boundary cases that I''ve enjoyed over the years. They are particularly instructive as to the proper application of boundary location principles for METES AND BOUNDS land parcels. For each case, I''ll give a problem statement and then I''ll suggest alternate approaches, principles, and solutions.

For each, you must then solve the case according to what you think is the proper application of survey principle. I''ll then give my 'best practices' solution and defend it with the reasons why I think my solution is the 'best practices'. You may or may not agree, but you''ll learn from this course.

HERE ARE THE INCLUDED CASES: (1) Frost''s Survey, (2) Henderson et al, (3) Simple 300x100 Parcel, and (4) Stefanic et al. You can also take these as individual courses offered on RedVector.com. You should do one or the other. Take all four together in this course, or take them individually.

If you love to discuss boundary location situations, then you will love this course and learn something new. You will also learn other viewpoints for your consideration. Even though the cases are tough ones, the beginner can benefit from the instruction they give as much as or more than the experienced practitioner. I hope you enjoy them!!!

Course Objectives

At the conclusion of this course, the student will reach the following objectives:

  • Given a metes and bounds boundary situation involving conflicts, the student should be able to list the range of viable solutions for the situation along with the principles that support each solution. 
  • Be able to list the principles that support each solution.
  • From among the viable solutions, the student should be able to identify, present, and defend their own  solution
  • After presenting a solution and comparing it with DAVE GIBSON''S 'best practices' solution, the student should be able to identify the differences and understand the reasons behind the 'best practices solution,' thus sharpening the practitioner''s application of principle.
