PLSS Map

http://geology.isu.edu/geostac/Field_Exercise/topomaps/plss.htm
This map is an example of a Public Land Survey System, or PLSS. A PLSS map is a map that is used to locate areas, not points. Also, it does not use exact measurements. This isn't necessarily a good thing because accuracy is not at a high, but this is good for a quick, concise measurement of an area.
