vector digital data
The PLSS Township feature class represents the GIS Version of the Public Land Survey System including both rectangular and non-rectangular surveys. This data set is designed to represent the Public Land Survey System (PLSS) grid that incorporates the North American Datum of 1983 (NAD 83). 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.
