It took a couple years, but I've completed the digitizing of the section line comments from the Public Land Surveys for the Between the Miamis. These were then used to create a plant community cover map. The interactive online map is published at ArcGIS Online here:https://www.arcgis.com/home/webmap/viewer.html?webmap=18284ed2d6b04ddcad52e40a6d658aa0. If you click on a section line it shows the surveyor description of the vegetation for that mile. If you click on a colored polygon it displays the vegetation cover type. An explanation of the cover types can be found here:
