geodb.io QGIS Plugin v2.8.3 — Release Notes
Professional Filing Maps with Surveyor's Bearings and Annotations
This release overhauls the claims map generation system to produce
professional-quality filing maps that meet state-specific requirements
for AZ and NV county recording.

What's New
Surveyor's Bearing Notation
All filing maps now use proper surveyor's bearing format (e.g., N
45°00' W) instead of cardinal directions. Metes and bounds
descriptions read: "Beginning at Corner No. 1, thence N 90°00' W,
1,500.00 ft to Corner No. 2; thence..."

Dimension Annotations on Claim Edges
Claim polygon edges are now labeled directly on the map with their
distances (1,500' and 600'), making claim boundaries immediately
readable without cross-referencing a legend or text block.

Reference Tie Line
A dashed red line is drawn from the survey monument to Corner No. 1,
labeled with the surveyor's bearing and distance. This is the standard
"tie" shown on mining claim filing maps connecting the claim to a
known PLSS corner.

Corner Labels
Filing maps now show C1, C2, C3, C4 labels at each corner with an (LM)
suffix on the location monument corner, meeting county recorder
requirements for corner identification.

Reference Point Marker
The survey monument / reference point appears as a distinctive red
triangle with its name labeled, making the tie line origin clearly
identifiable.
