Feature level Dataset for the BLM Administrative Unit Boundaries Data Standard. This feature dataset includes both BLM administrative land areas and office locations. Land areas are depicted with polygons for the smallest administrative unit (field offices). Larger administrative units, such as district offices, and administrative states may be derived from these polygons. Office locations at each level are depicted with points.

This dataset is a subset of the official national dataset, containing features and attributes intended for public release and has been optimized for online map service performance. The Schema Workbook represents the official national dataset from which this dataset was derived.

This data set consists of digital data describing BLM Colorado's Administrative Unit Boundaries in the State of Colorado, also known as BLM Colorado Field Office Areas. This data set was derived from BLM Colorado Field Office data captured at a scale of 1:24,000 and joined into a resulting statewide map layer. Differences in data capture techniques resulted in the data editor dropping some boundaries from various Field Office Areas to avoid sliver problems. The data was snapped to the 2016 Geographic Coordinate Data Base (GCDB) for boundary consistency

This data set shows the Idaho Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Field Office, District Office and State Office boundaries and names as per the three-tier organization initiated in February 2007. A Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Administrative Unit is a geographic area in which an organizational unit of the BLM has distinct jurisdictional responsibility for land and resource management activities occurring on the public lands, the maintained rights of the United States (i.e. mineral estate) and actions relating to the Trust responsibilities of the U.S. Government as stipulated in Law or Treaty.The State Office is the top layer of the three-tier organization, with District Offices being the middle layer and providing coordination, oversight and support to the lowest level, the Field Office. Idaho has one State Office, four Districts and twelve Field Offices. This feature class documents the physical boundary of an administrative unit. In some cases, the administrative unit may manage areas outside of the boundary for other programs’ purposes - this datset does not show these areas. BLM Idaho administers a little land in Nevada also, which is included here. For more information contact us at blm_id_stateoffice@blm.gov.

This polygon feature class represents the spatial extent of historical BLM Administrative Unit Boundaries (at the State, District, and Field Office levels).This state dataset may have published a dataset that is more current than the National dataset; there may be geometry variations between the state and national dataset which may have different results. The national dataset is updated following the data standard schedule

This polygon feature class represents the spatial extent of active BLM Nevada Administrative Unit Boundaries at the State, District, and Field Office levels.

This dataset depicts Bureau of Land Management (BLM) administrative unit (ADMU) land boundaries and office locations. The land areas for higher level administrative units (district and administrative states) are derived from the lower level administrative units (field office).

This polygon feature class represents the spatial extent of active BLM Alaska Administrative Unit Boundaries at the State, District, and Field Office levels.

BLM Administrative Units to include Utah Field Office and District boundaries at 1:24,000 scale as instructed by the BLM Headquarters Office. Data within these services are a live copy of BLM Utah's enterprise production environment. Quality control is conducted annually.Complete metadata for these data sets can be found at:BLM UT Administrative Unit Office (Point)BLM UT Administrative Unit Boundary (Polygon)

This data set shows the Idaho BLM District boundaries and names as per the Organization Refinement for FY 2004, which became official on October 1, 2003 (FY04), plus subsequent edits. This dataset has been updated over time. A Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Administrative Unit is a geographic area in which an organizational unit of the BLM has distinct jurisdictional responsibility for land and resource management activities occurring on the public lands, the maintained rights of the United States (i.e. mineral estate) and actions relating to the Trust responsibilities of the U.S. Government as stipulated in Law or Treaty. District Offices are the middle tier of BLM's three-tier organization, providing coordination, oversight and support to the lowest level, the Field Office, and overseen by the State Office.

This polyline feature class represents the spatial extent of active Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Administrative Unit Boundaries at the State, District, and Field Office levels.

admu_ofc_poly: Administrative Unit Office polygons. The Administrative Units (ADMU) data standard contains requirements for administrative boundaries within the Oregon/Washington (OR/WA) Bureau of Land Management (BLM). The OR/WA BLM State Office jurisdiction consists of Districts sub-divided into Field Offices. This dataset was formerly known as Resource Area Boundaries (RAB). The OR/WA BLM administrative jurisdiction encompasses the entire political States of Oregon and Washington. A BLM District or Field Office may cross the political boundary between those States. The dataset includes boundary lines depicting official BLM District boundaries, as approved by the Washington Office, and those depicting administrative BLM Field Office boundaries, as approved by the OR/WA BLM State Director, where the boundary lines are not coincident with the official District line.

ADMU_OFC_HIST_PT: Point data for Oregon BLM Administrative Units. The Administrative Units (ADMU) data standard contains requirements for administrative boundaries within the Oregon/Washington (OR/WA) Bureau of Land Management (BLM). The OR/WA BLM State Office jurisdiction consists of Districts sub-divided into Field Offices. This dataset was formerly known as Resource Area Boundaries (RAB). The OR/WA BLM administrative jurisdiction encompasses the entire political States of Oregon and Washington. A BLM District or Field Office may cross the political boundary between those States. The dataset includes boundary lines depicting official BLM District boundaries, as approved by the Washington Office, and those depicting administrative BLM Field Office boundaries, as approved by the OR/WA BLM State Director, where the boundary lines are not coincident with the official District line.

The Administrative Unit Boundary features are a result of the Administrative Unit Boundary polygons being permanently changed as a result of a business need.

The SMA implementation is comprised of one feature dataset, with several polygon feature classes, rather than a single feature class. SurfaceManagementAgency: The Surface Management Agency (SMA) Geographic Information System (GIS) dataset depicts Federal land for the United States and classifies this land by its active Federal surface managing agency. A Federal SMA agency refers to a Federal agency with administrative jurisdiction over the surface of Federal lands. Jurisdiction over the land is defined when the land is either: Withdrawn by some administrative or legislative action, or Acquired or Exchanged by a Federal Agency. The GIS data contained in this dataset represents the polygon features that show the boundaries for Surface Management Agency and the surface extent of each Federal agency's surface administrative jurisdiction. SMA data depicts current withdrawn areas for a particular agency and (when appropriate) includes land that was acquired or exchanged and is located outside of a withdrawal area for that agency. The SMA data do not illustrate land status ownership pattern boundaries or contain land ownership attribute details. This layer is also updated whenever BLM is notified that Lands have been acquired by other Federal Agencies. For additional information regarding an acquisition search the Bureau's LR2000 system: The LND_SurfaceEstate data is edited and maintained in a single polygon feature class. Whenever possible, BLM lands are constructed from the Public Land Survey System (PLSS), also available to the public (PublicLandSurvey.gdb). Alignment of BLM data with the PLSS is a continual process, as the accuracy and density of PLSS data continues to improve and develop. Issues of misalignment with the PLSS are more common with non-BLM management areas. These discrepancies are being addressed at the BLM California State office based on U.S. Department of Interior priorities throughout the State of California
