The Lands and Minerals Division has a long history of creating, maintaining, and sharing spatial datasets and map publications to support our work in land management and real estate, geology and mineral exploration, and mining engineering and hydrology. Provided here are searchable and sortable links to GIS datasets, maps, web map services, and web map applications authored by the Division.

Many of the geographic and geospatial data linked here are hosted on DNR pages offering additional context and metadata. Others are hosted by the Minnesota Geospatial Commons. Please visit the Commons if you are looking for other GIS resources not found here.
