USFS Implement GIS into new National Integrated Land System
(BLM - January 23, 2003)
The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) and U.S.
Forest Service (USFS) manage survey and land records for approximately
500 million acres of federal lands, with BLM managing an additional
million acres of subsurface mineral resources. The two agencies
have joined together with a consortium of state, county and private
organizations to develop a combined GIS system called the National
Integrated Land System.
