PLSS stands for
Public Land Survey System. This surveying method was used historically over the
largest fraction of the United States to survey and spatially identify land parcels
before designation of eventual ownership, particularly for rural, wild or
undeveloped land. This map shows the extent of the system in the United States.
This area encompasses major
portions of 30 southern and western states. The PLSS is also many times
referred to as a rectangular survey system.
