OT I think, but someone here might know. Is there a C#/Python/SQL library that can give PLSS data (Township, Range, Section) given a lat/lon?
Have you looked at geopandas? On Fri, Oct 28, 2022 at 8:18 AM Kaypo Keepr <kaypokeepr@gmail.com> wrote:

I haven't needed PLSS myself, but gdal is great for most geographic coordinate conversions, so that's the first place I'd look. It has Python as well as C bindings. If that doesn't work, try the gpsbabel commandline app. I use gpsbabel to convert from UTM coordinates to UTM (I have a friend who has an old Garmin that apparently only understands UTM) by creating a tiny GPX file with latitude/longitude for waypoints, then calling gpsbabel -i gpx -f infile.gpx -o text -F - -- the "text" format includes I don't see PLSS listed on https://www.gpsbabel.org/capabilities.html ... is there any other name for it? Otherwise, look into geopandas as Wesley suggested, or qgis -- there are bindings for various languages, so you don't necessarily need to use the qgis app. It looks like qgis, at least, understands PLSS. ...Akkana Kaypo Keepr writes:
