South Dakota updates its coordinate system rules to align with the National Geodetic Survey's current standards instead of referencing outdated 1927 and 1983 systems. The state will now use the National Spatial Reference System framework to define geographic zones within South Dakota rather than the previous "north zone" and "south zone" division. This change modernizes how surveyors and government agencies officially measure and describe locations of property and geographic features within the state.
