Lease + surface ownership + upcoming disposals. - searchOilGasLeases ⭐ Lease_Type='Oil and Gas' filter on ~4.5K leases (991 O&G) - searchUpcomingDisposals ⭐ TRXN-based auction tracts (sparse — 1-5 active) - searchSurfaceOwnership (~6.3K), getLeaseDetail, getServiceInfo upstream quirks: SLB GIS published by martinwi (same org as COGCC_VIEW). Spec said SLB_Leases_ALL_Public — that's the item title, NOT the URL path. Actual: Leases_ALL_2021/FeatureServer/0. Lease_Status: Active (4541), Out for Signature (13). Beneficiary dominated by School (4196). Lease_Subtype has 70+ values + data leaks. CSLB disposals layer 2 only (0/1 return 400).

CSLC Leases use ISO date strings + Lat/Lon strings + geometry.x/y. School_Lands has CNTY (4-char), 'Tinity'->'Trinity' typo. Granted_Lands COUNTY has 'Marin'/'Marin County' variants.

Illinois DNR ecological consultation parcels, Natural Area Inventory, Nature Preserves + Land/Water Reserves, and E&T species habitat via geoservices3.dnr.illinois.gov. 5 curated layers across ecocat + ecocatpro. - searchNaturePreserves ⭐ 740 INPC preserves + L/W reserves (McCune Sand Prairie LWR149, ...) - searchNaturalAreaInventory ⭐ 1.5K INAI sites (categories I-VII; Bohm Woods, ...) - searchEndangeredSpeciesHabitat ⭐ 5.3K E&T species polygons - searchEcoConsultations 217.5K parcels (8 PROGRAM values) §0: 6 of 10 root folders (Forestry, heritage, IRAP, LIDAR, OREP) are EMPTY. ecocatpro objectIdField=null but pagination works with explicit orderBy. Mangled fields — site name at MANAGED__6.

Kansas state-managed lands, USGS PAD-US ownership, KDWP wildlife areas + state parks + state fishing lakes, and Walk-in Hunting Area private-lands public-access tracts. 4 curated layers, 8K+ polygons. - searchProtectedAreas ⭐ 993 KDWP-curated polygons of all publicly-managed land - searchPublicLandsOwnership ⭐ 3,127 PAD-US polygons; easements via category=Easement - searchWildlifeAreas ⭐ 213 state wildlife areas + state parks + state fishing lakes - searchWalkInHuntingAreas ⭐ 3,736 WIHA tracts with COUNTY filter (Title Case) - getServiceInfo §0 spec drift: KS DASC Hub publishes no state-lands ownership/parcels/easements layer of its own — content lives on the AGOL tenant shared by KSDOT/KDWP/KSU. PAD-US KS has no county column. WIHA service renamed every season; latest stable hard-coded.

Louisiana State Land Office state-agency tracts. AGOL Feature Service (owner: NBAM_Org), no auth. - searchStateLands ⭐ — 1,026 state-agency tract polygons (LSU, prisons, parks, DOTD) - getStateLandTract — full record by SITE_CODE - getServiceInfo quirks: USE_ is exclusively "STATE AGENCY LAND" — no mineral interests in this layer (those are on SONRIS / la-sonris). Probed: LEASE_OWN_ S/L/M = State-Owned (839) / Leased by State (150) / Mixed (37). PARISH_COD stored both zero-padded ("01") and unpadded ("1") — handler matches both. SURF_INT mostly FULL_INTEREST; 2 records have data-entry typo.

Michigan DNR mineral leases, state-managed parcels, ownership, current rights, and conservation easements via the DNRLOTSParcelsOPENDATA FS on services3.arcgis.com. 6 curated layers from MI DNR LOTS Open Data. - searchMineralLeases ⭐ 5.5K leases (5097 O&G / 231 Metallic / 53 Nonmetallic / 66 Gas Storage / 61 Surface Use) - searchManagedLands ⭐ 135.9K parcels by division (Forest Resources / Parks & Rec / Wildlife) - searchDnrParcels 132.7K DNR-tracked parcels - searchConservationEasements ⭐ 1.3K development-rights easements - searchLeaseNominations 25 pending §0: research DEQ/Mineral_Lease/MapServer dead — live data via Hub discovery.

Mississippi state lands — state parks, Wildlife Management Areas, and Forestry Commission Section 16 BOE forestry plans. - searchStateParks ⭐ 39 state park polygons (Buccaneer/Tishomingo/Percy Quin/Natchez/Roosevelt) - searchWildlifeManagementAreas ⭐ 64 MDWFP-administered WMA polygons (Pascagoula/Mahannah/Sandy Creek) - searchForestryPlans ⭐ ~1,067 Section 16 school-trust BOE forestry plans (PrimGoal: Timber/Wildlife/Fire) §0: MS has NO single state lands portal — the historic MARIS public-data hub is currently offline. The MDWFP server has an incomplete TLS chain so its lakes + boat ramps are excluded; polygons are sourced from a curated parks+WMAs aggregator + the Forestry Commission. Client PII on BOE plans (phone/email/zipcode) is NOT exposed.

Montana DNRC trust-lands tracts (~13.9K), trust-lands lease lots (~657), conservation easements (~2.8K), and managed areas (~1.5K state parks + fishing access sites + WMAs + federal lands). - searchTrustLandsSurfaceTracts ⭐ 13,907 DNRC tracts; GrantID land-grant code (CS/CB/PH/UM/...) - searchTrustLandsLeaseLots ⭐ 657 active/pending/terminated leases; type RES/COMM/DEVREC/+ - searchConservationEasements ⭐ 2,769 easements; top holder Montana Land Reliance (40%) - searchManagedAreas ⭐ 1,531 state parks/FAS/WMAs/federal lands - getServiceInfo §0 spec drift: content split across two hosts (DNRC tenant + MT State Library MSDI). No county column on any layer. mt-bogc covers wells + MMB O&G leases on the same DNRC tenant; this connector covers everything else.

North Dakota Department of Trust Lands. AGOL Feature Services from owner jstegmiller@nd.gov_NDDTL; no auth. - searchOilGasLeases (~33K mineral tracts; 8.9K active) ⭐ filter county, lessee, eligible (default Leased) - getExpiringLeases ⭐ acquisition signal — leases expiring within windowDays - searchSurfaceLeases (~4.9K grazing/ag), getLeaseDetail, getServiceInfo upstream quirks: NDDTL does NOT publish OG-leases as a separate layer; they live inside the unified TrustLandsMineralsVW (filter lease LIKE '%OG-%'). exp/effective stored as MM/DD/YYYY string with " " for null. Counties Title-Case (different from ND DMR's UPPERCASE). landtrustdash.nd.gov is offline — AGOL views are the working public surface.

New York DEC Lands — Forest Preserve (Adirondack + Catskill), State Forests, Wildlife Management Areas, plus 20 other CATEGORY values — via the NYSDEC ArcGIS Online FeatureServer (services6.arcgis.com / org DZHaqZm9cxOD4CWM).

Pennsylvania DCNR Bureau of Forestry. State forest + park boundaries + O&G infrastructure on state forest land. - searchOilGasInfrastructure ⭐ Pads (~941) + Pipelines (~762). Reframed from spec searchStateForestLeases. - searchStateForests (661 polys / 20 districts), getServiceInfo upstream quirks: DCNR does NOT publish state-forest mineral leases as Feature Service — lessee data is PDF-only. Method reframed against BOF/OilGasInfrastructure (the geometry of leased activity). Pad_Type / Status / Pipeline_Type are SmallInteger codes — decoded via published domains. Status 10=Active / 4=construction complete / 7=reclaimed; Pad_Type 1=gas well / 4=compressor / 10=Monitoring; Pipeline_Type 1=Gathering / 6=Trunk. Pads layer has NO operator (Pipelines does).

Utah SITLA — ~3.4M acres of trust lands; strongest state-trust portfolio per acre after TX. - searchOilGasLeases ⭐ ~851 active O&G mineral leases (10 production_status) - searchInactiveLeases ~5.5K historical / expired O&G leases - searchSurfaceOwnership ⭐ ~16K. owner=Fed/Private/State/Tribal; agency=BLM/SITLA/USFS - getLeaseDetail single-lease lookup by leasegis (ML22161.0) upstream quirks: TWO origins — /mapping/rest (UtahSITLA) for Contracts; /server/rest (plpcoadmin_agol) for Ownership. Active O&G is **layer 1 NOT 0** of Contracts_Oil_Gas. class has trailing spaces ('ML '). Active dates are epoch ms; inactive dates are MM/DD/YYYY strings. Active layer has NO county — bbox/near only.

Texas General Land Office state lands. No auth.

Quirks: MM/DD/YYYY string dates; most non-lease layers have no COUNTY column; ESI/boundary layers return line geometry.

Virginia Department of Forestry — state forests, DOF offices, fire-risk Woodland Home Communities, and the DCR-curated Virginia Conservation Lands aggregator. - searchStateForests ⭐ 26 state forest polygons (Appomattox-Buckingham 19.5K acres + 25 others) - searchConservationLands ⭐ 14,535 polygons across 70 tract types — state parks, forests, WMAs, easements, federal/local/private fee tracts - searchWoodlandCommunities ⭐ 5,433 fire-risk evals (Low/Moderate/Medium/High/EXTREME) - searchDofOffices 42 office points §0: WHC County is UPPERCASE.

Wyoming OSLI — ~3.5M acres state trust + mineral estate. - searchOilGasLeases (~15.4K — slim schema) - searchSchoolSections ⭐ FundCode='CS' (Common School Sec 16+36 trust ~20K) - searchSurfaceOwnership (~31.6K), searchUpcomingAuctionLands (~195 LARCS rich), getServiceInfo Spec drift: getLeaseDetail DROPPED — lease polygon schema is too slim (LeaseNumber + dates only). LARCS table provides rich county/acres/bidPerAcre attributes — surfaced as searchUpcomingAuctionLands. upstream quirks: StateOwnership has NO County column — bbox/PLSS scoping only. FundCode CS dominates (20.1K of 31.6K parcels). Native gis2.statelands.wyo.gov returns rich schemas; AGOL mirrors are slimmer.
