Texas General Land Office: GIS Maps and DataBesides historical maps, research, and data, today the Land Office uses Geographic Information Systems (GIS), aerial imagery, 3D elevation data, and field data collection to compile, analyze, and distribute the most accurate geospatial data possible about the location of natural and cultural resources. These tools support the critical business functions of the General Land Office, and are essential for the study and protection of our state's valued resources. This GIS page contains a collection of dynamic, interactive mapping tools that provide access to the vast collection of spatial data available at the agency, as well as download links for our authoritative datasets.
