get_mark_list.prl - Takes parameters from your URL and retrieves a list of 'publishable' stations from the NGS database which fall within those parameters.

  
Click on the links below to get the URL
for retrieving by one of the five methods
RADIUS, MINMAX, NAME, PROJECT, PIDS
(See URLs at the end of this page for a different format of output)

RADIUS:
http://www.ngs.noaa.gov/cgi-bin/get_mark_list.prl?1=RADIUS&2=N384417&3=W0982215&4=5.0&5=X-0-0

MINMAX:
http://www.ngs.noaa.gov/cgi-bin/get_mark_list.prl?1=MINMAX&2=N413000&3=W0983000&4=N413730&5=W0983730&6=X-0-0

NAME:
http://www.ngs.noaa.gov/cgi-bin/get_mark_list.prl?1=NAME&2=NE&3=PUMKIN&4=X-0-0

PROJECT:
http://www.ngs.noaa.gov/cgi-bin/get_mark_list.prl?1=PROJECT&2=GPS1229/8&3=N&4=X-0-0

COUNTY:
http://www.ngs.noaa.gov/cgi-bin/get_mark_list.prl?1=COUNTY&2=FL&3=125&4=X-0-0

PIDS:

Here are the parameter definitions for each retrieval method: 
RADIUS
1 = Retrieval Method
2 = Latitude Deg-Min_Sec.
3 = Longitude Deg-Min-Sec
4 = Radius in Miles
5 = Control Type
MINMAX
1 = Retrieval Method
2 = Min Latitude Deg-Min_Sec.
3 = Min Longitude Deg-Min-Sec
4 = Max Latitude Deg-Min_Sec.
5 = Max Longitude Deg-Min-Sec
6 = Control Type
NAME
1 = Retrieval Method
2 = State Code
3 = First few letters of Station Name
4 = Control Type
PROJECT
1 = Retrieval Method
2 = Project ID
3 = Determination Code
Y = Retrieve only marks determined in the project
N = Retrieve any mark observed in the project
O = Retrieve only marks occupied as StandPoint in project
4 = Control Type
COUNTY
1 = Retrieval Method
2 = State Code
3 = County Fips Code
4 = Control Type
PIDS
1 = Retrieval Method
2 = A string of PIDs in the format PID1+PID2+PID3+...etc
3 = Control Type


The 'Control Type' parameter has the following meaning:
X-0-0 = Any Horz. and/or Vert. Control
H-G=0 = GPS Sites Only
H-0=0 = Any Horizontal Control
H-A=0 = Horizontal Order-A
H-B=0 = Horizontal Order-B or Better (HARN)
H-1=0 = Horizontal Order-1 or Better
H-2=0 = Horizontal Order-2 or Better
V-0=0 = Any Vertical Control
V-1=0 = Vertical Order-1
V-2=0 = Vertical Order-2 or Better
TID=0 = Vertical Tidal Bench Mark
F-C=0 = FBN and/or CBN
P-S=0 = PAC and/or SAC
COR=0 = CORS
D-D-0 = Destroyed Marks Only (Normally not published)

The last field above indicates the Monument Stability,
Example:
H-2-0 = Horizontal Second Order Any Stability
H-2-B = Horizontal Second Order Stability B


The Output Format is:
Dist = Distance from Center (For Radius retrieval Only)
PID = NGS Permanent Identifier
H = Horizontal Order
V = Vertical Order
Vert_Source = Vertical Datum and How Determined
Approx. = Approximate Latitude
Approx. = Approximate Longitude
Deignation = Station Name
