Get Directions to Legal Land Descriptions | LSD Navigation
Navigate directly to legal land descriptions. Township Canada combines legal land lookup with driving directions, so you can enter an LSD, quarter section, or NTS location and get turn-by-turn navigation to that exact spot. Essential for field workers, surveyors, and anyone traveling to rural locations identified by legal land descriptions.
Why use Township Canada for directions?
The problem: You have a legal land description (like SW 25 24 1 W5) but Google Maps doesn't understand it. You'd need to manually convert to coordinates, then enter those into a navigation app.
The solution: Township Canada understands legal land descriptions directly. Enter the LLD, get the coordinates, and launch turn-by-turn navigation—all in one workflow.
