Where has NatureServe Vista been used?
NatureServe Vista has been applied in Arkansas to help a major timber company identify forest stands with high conservation values. It has also been used in Orange County, FL to assist with a community-based planning process. In that application, NatureServe Vista was used to identify areas with significant conservation value and resulted in strong community support for moving a major new development corridor in order to preserve some important upland habitat. Other applications include its use in Missouri, Napa County, CA and Puerto Rico. We are currently working on projects that apply NatureServe Vista in Colorado, Wyoming, Texas, Alberta, Canada, the Amazon River basin, and Brazil. For more information about these applications, see our case studies.
