- Description:

- Abstract:
- This is the 100k Public Land Survey System (PLSS) coverage for the
state of Nevada.
- Purpose:
- This PLSS coverage is intended to be used as a supplemental index
layer to assist in referencing geographic locations within the state of
Nevada.
- Supplemental_Information:
- This layer was developed by the US Bureau of Mines (USBM), Western
Field Operations Center, through digitizing and joining all 100k BLM
surface management maps of Nevada in 1988-1990. The original publication
for which the data were created was by Crandell, W.D. and M.M. Hamilton,
'Availability of Federally Owned Minerals for Exploration and Development
in Western States: Nevada, 1985'; USBM Special Publication, 1990, 54 pp.
The data were used by the USBM to create mine claim density maps. USGS
publications OFR99-540 utilized the data in creating a specific mine claim
density map of Nevada with 1996 claim data.

-
- Process_Description:
- The BLM mining claim data from ALMRS/LR2000 were processed and
joined to the PLSS, using ArcEdit software, by the U.S. Bureau of Mines
and later by the U.S. Geological Survey.

- Process_Step:
-
- Process_Description:
- The PLSS and Mine Claim data were acquired by the BLM in June 1999,
and re-projected to UTM Zone 11 Meters NAD27. A copy of the data was
renamed plss100k, the mining claim fields were dropped. The BLM has
retained a version of the original data, named mineclaim96.
- Process_Date: March 14, 2000
- Process_Step:
-
- Process_Description:
- The coverage was re-projected to NAD83 in compliance with WO
IM-2002-066. Several variations of township and range attributes were
also added to aid in joining to information queried from LR2000 and
other databases.
