In U.S. land surveying under the Public Land Survey System (PLSS), a section is an area nominally one square mile (2.6 square kilometers), containing 640 acres (260 hectares), with 36 sections making up one survey township on a rectangular grid.
Determine the size of the parcel of land in acres. If you know the area of the land in square feet or square miles you can convert this value to acres. Convert square feet to acres by dividing the number of square feet by 43,560 (e.g. 130,000 square feet of land is equivalent to approximately 2.98 acres).
