Download a tract's boundary as Shapefile, GeoJSON or KML

Show the surveyed boundary of a search result on the map and download it as a Shapefile, GeoJSON or KML file for ArcGIS, QGIS or Google Earth.

A search result is more than a centroid. Township America shows the polygon boundary of the section or quarter section you looked up, taken from the BLM cadastral survey data (CadNSDI), and lets you download that boundary straight from the result.

Pick Shapefile for ArcGIS, GeoJSON for QGIS and web maps, or KML for Google Earth. The file carries the parcel shape with the PLSS description, state, county and acres as attributes, so you can check a setback, a corridor or an acreage without drawing the boundary by hand.
