Motion Sensor for Equipment Storage
The pad where the tractor sleeps is the target.

Why this comes up
The pad where the tractor sleeps is the target. Aim across the pad, not across the fence.
What to check on the map first
County GIS lines are assessment maps. They are not a survey, and a product will not redraw them.
Open Platbookmapper and choose the state. The directory sends you to the county viewer. Match the parcel ID before you trust a pin on an aerial photo.
A tool that matches the job
Shop the Motion sensor alarm when that is the job in front of you. Aim across the pad, not across the fence.
The limit
Put the sensor on your lane or your door. A chime is not a boundary, and a shared easement is only a right to pass.
If the line is the real question, call a surveyor. The gear will not answer it.
Not a survey. County GIS and tax parcel maps are assessment and planning layers. They are not a substitute for a recorded plat, deed, or licensed survey.
