Technicians : Jeremy Bunn, Soleil Kelley, Tracy Potter
General Land Office Plats were downloaded from the BLM (http://landprx.pdxproxy.blm.gov/Online-Records.asp ) and were georeferenced to WA DNR Public Land Survey System (available at:<http://wagda.lib.washington.edu/data/plss.html>). The clipped versions (files with suffix ‘_clip’) were clipped to township boundaries for seamless mosaicing. The unclipped versions (files with no suffix) retain the original map collar and survey information.
Plat maps show streams, wetlands, and some land
cover. They reliably reflect field data only along section boundaries and
navigable channels. Within sections, the maps include many wetlands with indeterminate
boundaries, and wetlands or smaller (non-navigable) channels that are drawn
speculatively, sometimes in locations that are improbable or impossible.
Familiarity with the instructions
given to the field surveyors [see (White, C.A. 1991. A History of the
Rectangular Survey System. U.S.Government Printing Office, Washington, D.C.)
for compilation] is useful for map interpretation.
