Texas abstract, block and survey descriptions
Convert Texas Abstract, Block and Section, and Survey-name descriptions to GPS coordinates and a polygon boundary, across all 254 Texas counties.
Texas never adopted PLSS. Its land is described by abstracts, blocks, sections and surveys under the Original Texas Land Survey. Township America now reads all three shapes you see in a deed, lease or RRC filing: abstract-only (A-123 Reeves County, TX), Block and Section (Block 5, Sec 14, T&P RR Co. Survey, Reeves) and Survey-name (John Smith Survey, Bexar County).
Paste a Texas description into the same search box you use for PLSS. You get a GPS centroid and the polygon boundary of the tract, in any of the 254 Texas counties, so a Permian Basin abstract and a Wyoming section work the same way.
