Text: USGS GAP ANALYSIS PROJECT

Gap Analysis Project (GAP)

GAP provides data to assess effects of land management by providing information on where species and natural communities occur and how they are being managed. "Gap analysis" assesses how well we are protecting common plants and animals by identifying the degree to which animal species and plant communities are under-represented on protected lands such as parks and refuges.

National Biogeographic Map

The National Biogeographic Map (NBM) is a project of the Core Science Systems Mission Area. The project’s goal is to provide a platform for analysis of questions about what species are where, how well protected they are, how vulnerable they are to stressors, and what management options will have the greatest benefit for conservation of biodiversity.

Through a Fish's Eye: The Status of Fish Habitats in the United States 2015

This report summarizes the results of an unprecedented nationwide assessment of human effects on fish habitat in the rivers and estuaries of the United States.  The assessment assigns a risk of current habitat degradation scores for watersheds and estuaries across the nation and within 14 sub-regions.  The results also identify some of the major sources of habitat degradation.

Species of Greatest Conservation Need Analysis Tool

Species of Greatest Conservation Need are lists of species designated in the 56 State Wildlife Action Plans which identify the species most in need of conservation action in that state or U.S. territory. USGS developed a process that allows these lists to be compiled into a national list, making their representation across taxa groups available via the Species Conservation Analysis Tool.
