PLSS Search


Use the Polk County Interactive GIS Map - WGXtreme site to search for Tie-Sheets.  There are four different types of Tie-Sheet monuments to search for: PLSS Corners, Witness Monument, Tie Sheet (icon used only for downloading purposes) and Meander Corner.



Once you have entered the site, click the Dept Maps tab and choose Surveyor from the drop-down list.  From here you have two options to search for Tie-Sheets.
 


1. You can open the Tie-Sheet Search window on the left side of the site and search by the Wisconsin Corner Point Identification System PLSS ID: number or by Town, Range and Section number.

 


2.  You can also use the interactive map tools on the top of the screen to zoom-in to a Monument location of your choice and select that Monument using the Identify tool.  You can click on or draw a box around one or multiple Monuments to retrieve a results list.


In the results list, click on a record to view the PLSS Corner Feature Information window. 
Click on to retrieve a PDF image of the Tie-Sheet for that record.





Please note that in order to identify a Monument on the map the correct Monument map layer must be highlighted (in orange, click on map layer name to make it active) under the Layers window on the left side of the screen. The PLSS Corner map layer is the default active layer.  Also, not all tie sheets may be available at this time online.  Please contact the County Surveyor to obtain information on missing tie-sheets.
