Using the Landtracker Software

The buttons at the top are used to select which type of conversion you would like to perform.

DLS denotes Dominion Land Survey Coordinates which comprise of Legal Subdivisions, Townships, Ranges and Meridians.

BCNTS denotes the British Columbia National Topographical System.

To enter an LSD, first select the DLS button and then simply press any field to bring up the scroll wheel. This will be used to select your coordinate.

Simply scroll through each series of coordinates until you are satisfied with your entry. Changing each value will show a corresponding change in the header coordinate which is on the top of the scroll wheel. For quarter section coordinates it will automatically set the LSD coordinate to 1.

When you are satisfied with your entry simply tap anywhere outside the scroll wheel box. This will take you back to the main screen. To convert the coordiante you selected press the convert button and it will display the latitude and longitude of the value you selected. In this case 1-1-1-1W1:
