PLSS Map- a map used by the Public Land Survey System to survey and identify land parcels. It is divided into townships and ranges.
A PLSS map is used to identify land parcels throughout the US. The map is created using a principal meridian and a base line, along which townships and ranges are mapped. Each state has at least one base line and one principal meridian, although some have multiples, especially if they are far from a rectangular shape. The map above shows all the townships in Alabama, and the ones that are highlighted are the Franklin county townships.
