General Information About USGS BLM Edition Maps:
- Typically come in two formats:
- Surface Management Status (only)
- Surface & Mineral Management Status
- On the front title panel there is a picture of the state. There is a rectangle on that map that shows the area covered by the map.
- USGS topographic map usually is named for the most prominent feature within the bounds of the map, which frequently is a community, town, or city. The name given a map can be based on that or a big mountain or big creek or something else that is in the area covered by the map. Map names are not political boundaries or a geographical area name, in other words in may not cover the entire community, city, town or whatever it's named after. The map covers a specific amount of area.
- Map names usually don't change, but community or features names change constantly. A communities area may also change boundaries as well but the map name may not change.
- When a map covers multiple states a map's primary state is the state that contains the name feature, which is not always the same as the state that has most of the map area.
- One may need several maps to cover the desired area like a city or hiking trail. On the back of USGS maps their is usually a box that shows the map names of the adjoining maps. Typically that map at hand, the one being looked at, is in the center box.
- All of my USGS-BLM Edition maps are original prints from the US Government.
- The USGS stopped traditional methods of surveying and updating topographic maps based on aerial photography and field checks in 2008.
- USGS-BLM Edition maps usually are in the scale 1:100,000 (1/100,000).
- The scale 1:100,000 (metric) - 30 minutes by 60 minutes. One centimeter on the map represents one kilometer of distance on the ground. One inch is about 1.6 miles. 1 kilometer (km) = 0.62137 miles (mi). Covers about 1,568 to 2,240 square miles depending up the longitude & latitude location.
- The world, Earth as we know it, is not flat and not two-dimensional. It is sort of a sphere; round and three-dimensional. Printed Topographic Maps convert this sphere curvature to a flat, 2D piece of paper as a rectangular quadrangle.
The United States Geological Survey (USGS) is a bureau of the United States Department of the Interior (USDI).
- Latitude and Longitude along with Seconds, Minutes, and Degrees is a physical measurements. Inches, feet, miles, centimeters,. kilometers, et cetera are flat measurements. USGS maps help to co-ordinate between the two.
- Topographic maps have contour lines which give the elevation of the land. Some BLM maps have these, some do not.
- Both the Bureau of Land Mangement (BLM) and the United States Geological Survey (USGS) are under the U.S. Department of the Interior (DOI) of the US Government of the United States of America, Planet Earth.
