Title
The GIS Challenges of Ecoregional Conservation Planning - Lessons learned from the Northern Appalachian and Acadian Ecoregion
Author(s)
Woolmer, G
Published
2010
Abstract
The tools of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) are well suited to the application of conservation planning, a pursuit that requires the overlay and analysis of often large volumes of geographic information, including the locations and distribution of multiple conservation targets and threats. This chapter in “Landscape-scale Conservation Planning” shares the GIS experiences, challenges, and lessons learned from a multi-year, multiple-partner conservation planning effort for the transboundary Northern Appalachian/Acadian Ecoregion of North America.
