GIS Data - Category View

The Bureau of Land Management's OR/WA Data Library contains the spatial data holdings of the Oregon and Washington BLM and provides a means to obtain datasets and metadata via download or other media.

The GIS data holdings of the BLM in OR/WA consist of 1) statewide or regional coverages captured at a scale of 1:100,000 (or smaller) and 2) resource and framework data captured at the 1:24,000 scale (or larger) that have been built internally and that cover mostly BLM-managed lands with some private lands included.

We have grouped our datasets into the following categories to help you quickly locate data useful to your interests. You can also display an alphabetized list.
