The second division of the PLSS is quarter, quarter-quarter, sixteenth or government lot division of the PLSS within the BLM Administrative State of Wyoming. 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 that has been defined for the first division. In most cases the smallest division for the cadastral reference will be the sixteenth but in some cases sections have only been divided to the quarter. Divisions below the sixteenth may be included in this feature class, but in most implementations these smaller divisions will be parcels. These are not the official representations of the lines marked by the survey, please contact Wyoming Cadastral Survey.

These are the cadastral reference features that provide the basis and framework for parcel mapping and for other mapping. This feature data set contains PLSS and Other Survey System data. The other survey systems include subdivision plats and those types of survey reference systems. This feature data set also include feature classes to support the special conditions in Ohio. This data set 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. This data set includes the following: PLSS Fully Intersected (all of the PLSS feature at the atomic or smallest polygon level), PLSS Townships, First Divisions and Second Divisions (the hierarchical break down of the PLSS Rectangular surveys) PLSS Special surveys (non rectangular components of the PLSS) Meandered Water, Corners and Conflicted Areas (known areas of gaps or overlaps between Townships or state boundaries). The Entity-Attribute section of this metadata describes these components in greater detail.

In the Public Land Survey System a Township refers to a unit of land, that is nominally six miles on a side, usually containing 36 sections within the BLM Administrative State of Wyoming. These are not the official representations of the lines marked by the survey, please contact Wyoming Cadastral Survey.

The PLSS First Division is commonly the section. This is the first set of divisions for a PLSS Township within the BLM Administrative State of Wyoming. These are not the official representations of the lines marked by the survey, please contact Wyoming Cadastral Survey.

This is a graphic representation of the data stewards based on PLSS Townships in PLSS areas within the BLM Administrative State of Wyoming. In non-PLSS areas the metadata at a glance is based on a data steward defined polygons such as a city or county or other units. The identification of the data steward is a general indication of the agency that will be responsible for updates and providing the authoritative data sources. In other implementations this may have been termed the alternate source, meaning alternate to the BLM. But in the shared environment of the NSDI the data steward for an area is the primary coordinator or agency responsible for making updates or causing updates to be made. The data stewardship polygons are defined and provided by the data steward. These are not the official representations of the lines marked by the survey, please contact Wyoming Cadastral Survey.

The polygon (vector) shapefiles represent Public Land Survey System (PLSS) sections, or 1-square mile areas of land, with information about Bureau of Land Management (BLM) land and mineral use authorizations for coal. The land areas specified by BLM authorizations vary in size and orientation, and may cross one or more PLSS section boundaries. For spatial consistency, the information was aggregated to the square mile PLSS section boundary. The original source data from BLM Cases Recordation database (LR2000) were specific to the day they were generated (March 6, 2016) and subsequent data pulls will likely be different.

County boundaries in Wyoming. This data was generated using BLM Wyoming CadNSDI (Cadastral National Spatial Data Infrastructure) and NHD flowlines and watershed boundaries to delineate the extent of the 23 counties in Wyoming. All boundaries were checked against a variety of sources, including county-sourced maps and online GIS Map Services, published maps such as the BLM 1:100,000 scale series, and historical GIS data.

This data provides the integrated cadastral framework for the specified Canada Land. The cadastral framework consists of active and superseded cadastral parcel, roads, easements, administrative areas, active lines, points and annotations. The cadastral lines form the boundaries of the parcels. COGO attributes are associated to the lines and depict the adjusted framework of the cadastral fabric. The cadastral annotations consist of lot numbers, block numbers, township numbers, etc. The cadastral framework is compiled from Canada Lands Survey Records (CLSR), Registration Plans (RS) and Location Sketches (LS) archived in the Canada Lands Survey Records.

This dataset portrays the Western State's boundaries based on the 2010 Cadastral National Spatial Data Infrastructure (CADNSDI) Geographic Coordinate Data Base (GCDB) distribution. The GCDB was acquired from a Premier Data contract in coordination with the BLM state GCDB Data Stewards to deliver a standardized GCDB product. This product would be capable, where GCDB data exists, to identify the State borders. Where GCDB data does not exist, in cases or rivers, lakes, and unsurveyed terrain, then alternative sources were used to identify the state boundary. Alternative sources include original 24K USGS Maps and US Forest Service Cartographic Feature File (CFF) PLSS data.

The USGS Protected Areas Database of the United States (PAD-US) is the nation's inventory of protected areas, including public land and voluntarily provided private protected areas, identified as an A-16 National Geospatial Data Asset in the Cadastre Theme ( https://communities.geoplatform.gov/ngda-cadastre/ ). The PAD-US is an ongoing project with several published versions of a spatial database including areas dedicated to the preservation of biological diversity, and other natural (including extraction), recreational, or cultural uses, managed for these purposes through legal or other effective means. The database was originally designed to support biodiversity assessments; however, its scope expanded in recent years to include all open space public and nonprofit lands and waters. Most are public lands owned in fee (the owner of the property has full and irrevocable ownership of the land); however, permanent and long-term easements, leases, agreements, Congressional (e.g. 'Wild ...

This dataset contains oil and gas participating area cases derived from Legal Land Descriptions (LLD) contained in the US Bureau of Land Management's, BLM, Mineral and Land Record System(MLRS) and geocoded (mapped) using the Public Land Survey System (PLSS) derived from the most accurate survey data available through BLM Cadastral Survey workforce. Geospatial representations might be missing for some cases that can not be geocoded using the MLRS algorithm.

This dataset contains land use authorization leases, permits and easement cases derived from Legal Land Descriptions (LLD) contained in the US Bureau of Land Management's, BLM, Mineral and Land Record System(MLRS) and geocoded (mapped) using the Public Land Survey System (PLSS) derived from the most accurate survey data available through BLM Cadastral Survey workforce. The minimum data entry requirement for legal description for linear authorizations is to the nearest 40 acre aliquot level (e.g.,NENW). Legal descriptions for non-linear authorizations are as described on the authorizing document. Geospatial representations might be missing for some cases that can not be geocoded using the MLRS algorithm. This data set contains cases with the dispositions of 'Authorized', 'Pending','Closed', and 'Interim'.

The polygon (vector) shapefiles represent claim areas within Public Land Survey System (PLSS) sections aggregated by serial (claim) numbers with information about Bureau of Land Management (BLM) land and mineral use authorizations for plans of operations and notices. The land areas specified by BLM authorizations vary in size and orientation, and may cross one or more PLSS section boundaries. For spatial consistency, the information was aggregated to the square mile PLSS section boundary and by serial numbers. The original source data from BLM Cases Recordation database (LR2000) were specific to the day they were generated (March 6, 2016) and subsequent data pulls will likely be different.

This dataset represents Surface Management Agency status in Wyoming. This dataset is intended to represent the ownership & management information on Master Title Plats(MTPs). Surface management will be identified by the Agency of Jurisdiction, when the surface is Federal. All other parcels will be identified as either Private or State. Private parcels do not identify the name of the individual owner. The geometry of this dataset was constructed from the current version of the Cadastral National Spatial Data Infrastructure (CadNSDI) standardized PLSS for Wyoming. This dataset adheres to the BLM National Surface Management Agency data standard published in 2013.Please be advised that surface ownership and surface management are not always synonomous. In some cases, one agency may be responsible for surface management but not own that particular surface parcel (i.e. lands owned by the Bureau of Reclamation within a state park are managed by Wyoming State Parks, Historic Sites and Trails, not by the Bureau of Reclamation). Please also note that state managed lands are now under 3 categories; "State" applies to those lands managed by the Wyoming Office of State Lands & Investments. The other two categories are "State (Wyoming Game & Fish)" and "State (State Parks & Hist Sites)" managed by the Wyoming Game & Fish Dept and Wyoming State Parks, Historic Sites, and Trails, respectively.

This feature class contains polygons for federal locatable mineral estate open to mineral location and entry in the proposed management area.

This dataset represents federal mineral status in Wyoming. This dataset is intended to represent federal mineral information on Master Title Plats (MTPs) and other land status records. The geometry of this dataset was constructed from the current version of the Cadastral National Spatial Data Infrastructure (CadNSDI) standardized PLSS for Wyoming. The types of federal mineral reservations are representative of those found on land patents issued in Wyoming.

This dataset contains mining claim cases with the case disposition (status) of closed from US Bureau of Land Management's, BLM, Mineral and Land Record System(MLRS). The BLM only requires that mining claims be identified down to the affected quarter section(s)—as such, that is what the MLRS research map and public reports will reflect, most commonly. Claim boundaries, as staked and monumented, are found in the accepted Notice/Certificate of Location as part of the official case file, managed by the BLM State Office having jurisdiction over the claim. The geometries are created in multiple ways but are primarily derived from Legal Land Descriptions (LLD) for the case and geocoded (mapped) using the Public Land Survey System (PLSS) derived from the most accurate survey data available through BLM Cadastral Survey workforce. Geospatial representations might be missing for some cases that can not be geocoded using the MLRS algorithm.
