BLM NV PLSS CADNSDI Version 2 Metadata Glance Polygon

BLM NV PLSS Metadata Glance: MetadataGlance provides PLSS data steward content for individual PLSS units.This dataset 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.

BLM NM REGION CadNSDI MEANDERED WATER FOR NM

The CADNSDI or the Cadastral Publication Data Standard is the cadastral data component of the National Spatial Data Infrastructure (NSDI). This is the publication guideline for cadastral data that is intended to provide a common format, structure and content for cadastral information that can be made available across jurisdictional boundaries. This ensures the availability of consistent and uniform cadastral data that meets various  business needs including connections to the source information from the data stewards. Data stewards are responsible for determining which data are published and should be contacted for any questions regarding data content or for additional information.  The cadastral publication data is supplied regularly by cadastral data producers in a standardized format and consists of two main components: land parcel data and cadastral reference data. It is essential to understand that publication data differs from operational, maintenance, or production data. The production data is structured to optimize maintenance processes, integrates with internal agency operations, and contains significantly more detail than publication data. The publication data represents a subset of the more comprehensive production data and is reformatted to align with national standards, allowing integration across jurisdictional boundaries and be presented in a uniform and standardized format nationwide.  The data has been converted from source documents into a digital format and structured in compliance with FGDC Cadastral Data Content Standards and Guidelines for publication.  This data set is optimized for data publication and sharing rather than for specific “production” or operation and maintenance.  The primary source of this data is the Cadastral survey records maintained by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM), supplemented by records and geographic control coordinates from other federal agencies such as the U.S. Forest Service, USGS 7 ½ minute quadrangles and, where applicable, alternate source data.  Occasionally, the complexity of surveys made data collection prohibitively expensive, especially in areas with multiple overlapping mineral surveys. In such instances, the data were often not fully abstracted or were only partially abstracted before being incorporated into the dataset.

BLM CO Wild Horse and Burro Herd Management Areas

BLM Colorado Wild Horse and Burro Herd Management Areas are congressionally-designated areas of land to which specific laws and regulations pertaining to the management of wild horses and burros are applied. All Herd Management Areas need to be contained within an originally designated Herd Area. See separate Herd Area dataset for those boundaries. Under the law, BLM is required to manage wild horses and burros only in those areas (Herd Areas) where they were found in 1971. Through land use planning, BLM evaluates each Herd Area to determine if it has adequate food, water, cover and space to sustain healthy and diverse wild horse and burro populations over the long-term. The areas which meet these criteria are then designated as Herd Management Areas. The Bureau uses the term Herd Management Area; the Forest Service uses the term Wild Horse Territory.

BLM Natl WesternUS FIAT Potential Treatment Areas 2015 Polygon

<DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><P><SPAN>This data represents a management strategy of the Fire and Invasives Assessment Tool (FIAT). Potential treatment area polygons identify treatment need, type, priority and timeframe within the Project Planning Areas. Potential treatment needs address Invasive Species, Coniferous Encroachment and Sagebrush Protection/Enhancement. Potential treatment areas are prioritized as High, Medium or Low priority.  FIAT was developed using a process designed to identify strategies that ameliorate threats to Greater Sage-Grouse (GRSG; Centrocercus urophasianus) and their habitats. While the assessment is applicable across the range of sage-grouse, the analysis is limited to Western Association of Fish and Wildlife Management Agencies’(WAFWA) Management Zones III, IV, and V (roughly the Great Basin region) because of the significant issues associated with invasive annual grasses and the high level of wildfires in this region. It incorporates emerging science, regional findings, and local data in identifying management opportunities that counter detrimental ecological trends in wildfire, invasive annual grasses, and conifer expansion. The purpose of the assessment is to identify potential project areas and management strategies in highly valued greater sage-grouse habitats which, if implemented, would reduce the threats to greater sage-grouse.</SPAN></P></DIV></DIV>

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. A Survey System Description is a named or numbered area of land that can be identified by a type and a designator. The survey system is generally a simultaneous conveyance that defines an area of land within which there is a consistent method of land description. These areas are typically non-federally managed lands. The special surveys polygons define the non-plss system areas for federally managed lands. The first, second and third division attributes are provied if needed for an application. These attributes are not needed if the intent is to track plats and subdivision or other survey systems only.

BLM NM REGION CadNSDI FIRST DIVISION FOR KS

This data represents the GIS Version of the Public Land Survey System including both rectangular and non-rectangular survey data. The rectangular survey data are a reference system for land tenure based upon meridian, township/range, section, section subdivision and government lots. The non-rectangular survey data represent surveys that were largely performed to protect and/or convey title on specific parcels of land such as mineral surveys and tracts. The data are largely complete in reference to the rectangular survey data at the level of first division. However, the data varies in terms of granularity of its spatial representation as well as its content below the first division. Therefore, depending upon the data source and steward, accurate subdivision of the rectangular data may not be available below the first division and the non-rectangular minerals surveys may not be present. At times, the complexity of surveys rendered the collection of data cost prohibitive such as in areas characterized by numerous, overlapping mineral surveys. In these situations, the data were often not abstracted or were only partially abstracted and incorporated into the data set. These PLSS data were compiled from a broad spectrum or sources including federal, county, and private survey records such as field notes and plats as well as map sources such as USGS 7 ½ minute quadrangles. The metadata in each data set describes the production methods for the data content. This data is optimized for data publication and sharing rather than for specific "production" or operation and maintenance. A complete PLSS data set includes the following: 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, Metadata at a Glance (which identified last revised date and data steward) and Conflicted Areas (known areas of gaps or overlaps or inconsistencies). The Entity-Attribute section of this metadata describes these components in greater detail. The PLSS First Division is commonly the section. This is the first set of divisions for a PLSS Township.

BLM CA Land Use Planning Areas

This polygon feature class represents the spatial extent and boundaries for anticipated, in-progress, existing and historic BLM Land Use Planning Area (LUPA) polygons. Land Use Planning Areas are geographic areas within which the BLM will make decisions during a land use planning effort. Land Use Planning Area Boundaries shift from an "in-progress" status and become Existing Land Use Planning Areas when the Land Use Plan has been approved and a Record of Decision Date has been established. At this point, these LUPAs are officially "existing" and the previous plan is moved to a "historic" status.

BLM NM Carlsbad Field Office Karst Potential Areas

Karst is a topography formed from the dissolution of soluble carbonate rocks such as limestone, dolomite, and gypsum. It is characterized by features like poljes above and drainage systems with sinkholes and caves underground. It has also been documented for more weathering-resistant rocks, such as quartzite, given the right conditions. Subterranean drainage may limit surface water, with few to no rivers or lakes. In regions where the dissolved bedrock is covered (perhaps by debris) or confined by one or more superimposed non-soluble rock strata, distinctive karst features may occur only at subsurface levels and can be totally missing above ground.
