A PLSS map is a government-made map that is created using the Public Land Survey System(PLSS). The PLSS is a surveying method used in the United States to survey and identify land parcels. The PLSS typically divides land into 6-square-mile townships and then divides those into 36 one-square-mile sections. If needed these sections can be divided further into quarters and so on. This map above is a PLSS map that shows the townships of a particular area in the U.S. This system is used manly for dividing land to make it easier to sell and regulate.
