How is a township described?
The conventional order is meridian, township, range, section. This is abbreviated MTRS. DNR and BLM land records use this convention. For example, F002N004E is in the Fairbanks Meridian, 2 townships North of the baseline, and 4 townships east of the principal meridian. Some record systems require the leading zeros to be typed, others do not. This site does not require a user to enter any leading zeros.
