Create Surface Locations
StackDX synchronizes nightly with your land management system (ie. CS Land, LandRite) and regulatory databases adding any updates to our system. In some cases you may need to upload documents to StackDX before the the Surface Location is present. For these situations, you can manually create the surface location in StackDX. Once the assets have been added to your land system or registered with the regulator, the next sync will automatically link any matching locations. This guide will show you how to create new surface locations in StackDX.
Note: Users require the ‘Wells & Locations Write’ permissions to create new surface locations.
