Description: These are the corners of the Public Land Survey System (PLSS). This data set contains summary information about the coordinate location and reliability of corner coordinate information.
Description: In the Public Land Survey System (PLSS), a Township refers to a unit of land, that is nominally six miles on a side, usually containing 36 sections.
This dataset represents the GIS Version of the Public Land Survey System including both rectangular and non-rectangular surveys. The primary source for the data is cadastral survey records housed by the BLM supplemented with local records and geographic control coordinates from states, counties as well as other federal agencies such as the USGS and USFS. The data has been converted from source documents to digital form and transferred into a GIS format that is compliant with FGDC Cadastral Data Content Standards and Guidelines for publication. This data is optimized for data publication and sharing rather than for specific "production" or operation and maintenance.

Description: The Public Land Survey System (PLSS) First Division is commonly as the section. This is the first set of divisions for a PLSS Township. This dataset represents the GIS Version of the Public Land Survey System including both rectangular and non-rectangular surveys. The data has been converted from its original format and transferred into a GIS format that is compliant with FGDC Cadastral Data Content Standards and Guidelines for publication.

Description: The second division of the Public Land Survey System (PLSS) is quarter, quarter-quarter, sixteenth or government lot division of the PLSS. The second and third divisions are combined into this feature class as an intentional de-normalization of the PLSS hierarchical data. The polygons in this feature class represent the smallest division to the sixteenth that has been defined for the first division. For example In some cases sections have only been divided to the quarter. Divisions below the sixteenth are in the Special Survey or Parcel Feature Class.

Description: These are areas of water that are defined from meander lines of the Public Land Survey System (PLSS) and General Land Office (GLO) surveys. These are not the official representations of coast or water lines and are representations of the lines marked by the survey along the boundaries of meandered water at the time of survey
