Every closure job starts with an LSD.
The conversion step between a legal land description and GPS coordinates is where time and accuracy are lost.
Manual LSD conversion wastes hours
Converting 40 closure site LSDs by hand takes most of a morning. A wrong meridian puts coordinates 250 km from the actual well.
AER filings need multiple formats
Directive 013 needs coordinates in the form, KML for the site map, and Shapefiles for GIS analysis. That's three separate conversions per site.
Field crews need GPS, not LSDs
Work orders list sites as LSDs. Trucks need latitude and longitude. The conversion step between the two is where errors happen.
Three workflows, zero manual conversion
Township Canada handles the DLS-to-GPS step so your team can focus on closure work.
Batch-Convert Closure Inventories
Upload a CSV of 200 closure site LSDs and get GPS coordinates for every one in seconds. The converter flags entries that don't resolve, catching data errors before they reach the AER.
