The Public Land Survey System (PLSS) is a systematic land partitioning system. This type of system is used to facilitate ownership. To help determine ownership a base line, prime meridian, and initial point are added to the grid. The PLSS map above was an early survey of Ohio, this looks a little different than modern PLSS but there is still a base line, prime meridian, initial point, and a clear division of ownership.
