Administrative Map Series Revisions
We revise the BLM corporate administrative maps series (1:100,000 and 1:500,000 scales). These unique maps portray all land ownership and other enhancements for the Western United States, excluding Alaska. They are used extensively within BLM offices and also sold to the public by BLM State Offices and the United States Geological Survey (USGS). We create and maintain the 1:100,000-scale digital database for wider programmatic utilization within BLM.
