Welcome to the ESRI Conservation Program (ECP)
This is the ECP Archive & Mapping site, It serves 2 roles. First, as an online historical archive for the first 30 years of the Esri Conservation Program, 1989 - 2019. Newer projects, including the "Conservation Reference Project", and the "Inclusive History of Conservation", can be found at the Esri Conservation GIS Program Geonet Site. It also serves for testing compatibility & presentations of various high resolution national vector maps of vegetation & ecological systems, from sources including LANDFIRE and the California Native Plant Society, using different kinds of ArcGIS Online apps, webmaps, storymaps, and data publishing tools (see below).
( GEONET., the global GIS community. Content and material from this archive is serving as source for many new Conservation documentation, equity & inclusiveness projects going on at GEONET, including the "Community GIS, Environmental & Social Justice" project, the "Inclusive History of Conservation" project, The Conservation Storytelling Project, the Global Conservation Training Project & Tribal & Traditional Conservation GIS. )
The current Society for Conservation GIS site is at www.scgis.org
