Know of a good longitude and latitude app?

Maybe I'm not using the correct terminology but I'm not finding what I need. I'm looking for an android app that will give me the longitude and latitude coordinates so we can find a couple property markers. We have found most of them but 3 are still elusive. None of the apps I can find will really give a specific, accurate, coordinates reading where the device is at.
If anyone knows of one it would be appreciated. It doesn't have to be free, I don't mind paying for it if it's accurate and works. Thanks.

Do you have an I-Phone? If so open your compass it has Latitude longitude and elevation.

Looks like this one will let you enter a waypoint, then it will direct you to it?

I have this one. One of the screens in this app shows your current lat/long position.

No I don't. Just androids.

Be aware that no cel phone is going to be as accurate as a real GPS receiver.

GPS triangulates off GPS satellites with a very high amount of accuracy.

Phones triangulate off their towers and are much less accurate.

Most (all?) smart phones have a GPS receiver in them, so they can receive gps signals. They also have a way to get a rough location via tower triangulation.

Any gps app should use the built in gps receiver.

Something like this?

GEEtar... FINDING what you need ? .... how soon you furget

I will rEmInD you ....

I know a few hunters as well as a realtor that swear by this program. Onx

Thanks, but I don't think that is what I need. I have the survey and know the approximate location of the markers but am still unable to find them, so I need to dig around a little. I just want to dig in an area that's close and not 20 yards away.

We use Theodolite on our PD phones (iphone) lat/lon, elevation, compass direction and more. Really like it. Plus its integrated into the camera so you can snap a pic and all the coordinates, elevation, day/time etc are stamped onto the pic.

If you are able to get the exact coordinates of the corners and go to the coordinates via any application it will not be exact. This is an intended error that changes periodically so that bad people don't use it to fly bombs and such remote control.
Now, knowing that you can figure out the correction by going to a known point and getting the coordinates and use that correction to locaty the other points.
There are also servers the post the correction every day for surveyors. If you look long and hard on the www you can find them, Easier to use the first method I mentioned.
Keep in mind the x, y, z coordinates will all have different corrections.

If you have a Samsung you can use Activity Zone App, it has a compass

Yes, that's exactly how it was explained to Me as well. I use a Garmin GPS every day at work and the error sometimes starts at 8 feet on a perfectly clear day and then hits 20 feet. If I'm working beside a highway it will blank the long and lats out and give a question mark icon. Definitely a security measure.

Surveyors are the only ones granted to-the-inch accuracy. You can make a call to your Muncipality and they can send someone out to stake your points. Usually this is done as a courtesy, but ask if they are charging you for it.

If you still don't have any luck, PM Me. I can pull up an aerial photo for you with your points marked out using my Company resources. If you know your property well, the aerial photo will tell you everything you need. Are you fighting with the Neighbors already?

No fighting, the owners of the adjacent properties don't live here, it's just vacant land with one small hunting cabin. No one is real concerned about it, we just want to be sure we don't encroach on anyone elses property. The previous owners left a couple scrap piles out in the back of the property, we want to dig a hole and bury that stuff but it appears to be pretty close to the property line.

If burning it is an option, I'd get a permit and burn it when you have rain in the forcast. If there's a bit of metal in it, you can pick it out and haul it away in your truck after it cools off.

Unless it's brush and wood, burying it is not a good idea.

At any rate, your Neighbors will be flexible that you are getting rid of the eyesore as long as you let them know what you are doing.

We burn the brush, no big deal. I was going to haul the metal off to a recycler but it's 60 miles away. My one neighbor is the one that suggested burying it. That is what he does. He is bringing in a bulldozer next month to redo the road up to to the hunting cabin so he said he could take care of it then. I know it doesn't seem right but that's the way they do things around here. I checked into a dumpster but it's $600 plus they charge for the disposal by the pound.

Most of those metal recyclers will come to your property for free and remove the metal. They advertise here all the time for free scrap removal. Burn the pile, sort the metal out, tell 'em to come haul 'er away.

From Career experience, I would absolutely never bury anything other than wood on your own property. If you are on well-water, that is your number one concern with metals working down to your water table. It's not a question of "if", it's "when". At the point where your well water shows metals in a routine water test (for re-sale purposes) your property could become worthless. It's nice of your Neighbor offering to bury it, but you'll be the better Guy if you get rid of it proper. Plus he'll leave cat tracks all over your yard.

How much different is it from having the metal buried vs. sitting on the ground? Because I see scrap laying around a lot of places. While there is some metal, most of it appears to be construction debris. There is an old oven, a sink, a steel wheel and a water pressure tank. We found a microwave buried back there the other day in one of the old burn piles. A lot of nails and glass too. We tried digging some of that out but it's just like a never ending process, the more we dig the more we find. The whole mess is at least a 1/4 mile from the well.

That's Soil properties and chemistry. I'm not going to explain it, it's too much to get into.

You're just going to have to trust what I'm saying. Look up my occupation attached on here.
