Citation_Information Originator: Publication_Date: 1993 Title: Township and Range Description Abstract This 1993 theme displays the township range locations in Oregon. It was derived from the PLSS theme by the SSCGIS. Purpose This dataset was created to delineate the Township and range lines for the state of Oregon. Supplemental_Information Procedures_Used The original PLSS theme was created by the Oregon Water Resource Department (OWRD). See the PLSS documentation to see how the theme was created. The PLSS theme was dissolved by the tr theme to create the township range polygon theme. The theme was copied. It was put out on the SSCGIS ftp site upon its creation. The theme was imported back in and projected to the new Oregon transfer standard during the winter of 1997. It was built for polygon topology and put back out on the SSCGIS ftp site. It was brought back in so metadata could be created for it. Revisions Unknown Reviews_Applied_to_Data Labelerrors was run several times on the theme. The theme has been spot checked several times to make sure the information in it was accurate. Related_Spatial_and_Tabular_Data_Sets None References_Cited The dataset was created by OWRD and modified to its current form by the SSCGIS Notes This dataset is a legacy dataset. Very little is known about its creation.
