Public Land Survey System Map


This is a map of the state of Indiana. It is a good example of a Public Land Survey System (PLSS) map because it shows the boundaries between counties in the state. This is important in determining things like transportation that are dealt with on a local level. PLSS maps are made by base lines (east and west), principal meridians(north and south), and the initial point that they go through.
