What is CO State Land Board?

Colorado State Land Board — ~3M acres of state trust lands. SLB GIS publishes through the martinwi-owned ArcGIS Online org (`services5.arcgis.com/rqsYvPKZmvSrSWbw`) — same org that hosts the authoritative ECMC oil-and-gas layers (`COGCC_VIEW`). Probed 2026-05-02. **Spec drift caught at probe**: spec named the leases service `SLB_Leases_ALL_Public` — that's the AGOL item title, NOT the URL path. Actual service URL is `Leases_ALL_2021/FeatureServer/0` (legacy publish-date naming). Service path `SLB_Leases_ALL_Public` returns 404. Captured. Layers: Leases_ALL_USE (~4,568 — all current leases), SurfaceOwnership (~6,281 SLB-owned parcels), CSLB_Upcoming_Disposal_Listings (sparse — typically 1-5 active disposal tracts on layer 2; layers 0/1 return 400). Lease_Type distinct (probed): Agriculture (2281), Oil and Gas (991), Recreation (441), Solid Mineral (260), Road Access Permit (161), Temporary Access Permit (152), Other (136), No Surface Occupancy (33), Tower (32), Commercial (26), Ecosystem Services (14), Agreement (14), Ground (10), Exploration Permit (7), MOU (3), Geologic Carbon Storage (1), RE-Geothermal (1). Lease_Status: Active (4541 — overwhelming), Out for Signature (13), Pending Requirements (2). Asset_Layer: Surface (3127), Oil & Gas (972), Other Minerals (250), Coal (22). Beneficiary: School (4196 — dominant), Internal Improvements (64), Colorado State University (43), University of Colorado (20), Public Buildings (17), Multi Beneficiary (16), Saline (4), Penitentiary (4). Lease_Subtype field has 70+ values + data-quality leaks ('BILLING/LEASE END DATE', '10/1/2023', 'LESSEE') — header rows accidentally landed in the column. Exposed only as free-text filter. Transaction_Number (e.g. AG-112180) is the lease ID; Legacy_Lease_Number is older numbering (still searchable). County stored Title-Case (Yuma, Weld, Adams). Lessee names ALL CAPS upstream (`JOSEPH M. BOHNEN`).
