What is included in the “Conservation Priorities” theme on the map viewer?
Several priority-setting efforts are included that are national or regional in scope. These include The Nature Conservancy ecoregional priorities, State Wildlife Action Plan priorities, North American Grassland Priority Conservation Areas from CEC, and American Wildlands Priority Linkages. In addition, for five pilot states—Colorado, Florida, Maine, Virginia, and Washington — we include additional conservation priorities developed at state and local scales. You can learn about each data layer in detail by clicking on “Map Key and Credits” at the top left of the map viewer.
