The Public Land Survey System (PLSS) Grid - Line is linework derived from the master coverage of the PLSS maintained by the Assessor's Office. This dataset only contains linework and attribute information for townships, ranges, sections, quarter sections and quarter quarter sections and government lot lines. It is compiled from recorded surveys and plats, coordinates and linework supplied by private surveyors, Snohomish County Public Works Survey, cities, Washington State Department Of Natural Resources (DNR) and the United States Department of the Interior - Bureau of Land Management (BLM). Standard BLM methods are used to construct the aliquot grid. In coastal areas, the aliquot grid may not apply for many of the coastal sections, it has been constructed for the purposes of land title and defining map extents for automated routines.

This data set is created using the township lines from the Snohomish County Assessor's Public Land Survey grid for the north and south boundary. The west boundary is taken from a Washington State county boundaries data set wtih a minor modification at its northerly extent to follow tide land boundries. The eastern boundary is taken from the Snohomish County basins data set.

Data DictionaryPageIndex_Poly represents the bounds of the Snohomish County Assessor’s tax Parcel Maps and is used as the index layer in Esri’s Data Driven Pages tool to automate Parcel Map generation. PageIndex_Poly is maintained as part of the County’s Integrated Land Records database and is based on the Public Land Survey System representing Sections and Quarter Sections. It is derived from the PLSS_Poly dataset and regenerated every few years to keep up with increasing tax parcel density. At the time of generation, Section Maps are converted into Quarter Section Maps when the unstacked (flattened) tax parcel count is greater than or equal to 150 per section.

The Public Land Survey System (PLSS) Grid - Points is point data derived from the master coverage of the PLSS maintained by the Assessor's Office. This dataset only contains points. It is compiled from recorded surveys and plats, coordinates and linework supplied by private surveyors, Snohomish County Public Works Survey, cities, Washington State Department Of Natural Resources (DNR) and the United States Department of the Interior - Bureau of Land Management (BLM). Standard BLM methods are used to construct the aliquot grid.

The Public Land Survey System (PLSS) Grid - Polygon are polygons derived from the master coverage of the PLSS maintained by the Assessor's Office. This dataset only contains polygon information. It contains polygons mostly at a quarter quarter section resolution except in certain non-urban areas where a lower full section resolution or hybrid is used. It is compiled from recorded surveys and plats, coordinates and linework supplied by private surveyors, Snohomish County Public Works Survey, cities, Washington State Department Of Natural Resources (DNR) and the United States Department of the Interior - Bureau of Land Management (BLM). Standard BLM methods are used to construct the aliquot grid. In coastal areas, the aliquot grid may not apply for many of the coastal sections, it has been constructed for the purposes of land title and defining map extents for automated routines.
