  1. GPLCC Geomatics Community Survey June – Sept 2011

  2. Landscape Conservation Cooperatives Secretarial Order No. 3289 establishes Landscape Conservation Cooperatives (LCCs), a network of public-private partnerships that provide shared science to ensure the sustainability of America's land, water, wildlife and cultural resources. Landscape Conservation Cooperatives (LCCs) recognize that these challenges transcend political and jurisdictional boundaries and require a more networked approach to conservation—holistic, collaborative, adaptive and grounded in science to ensure the sustainability of America's land, water, wildlife and cultural resources. As a collaborative, LCCs seek to identify best practices, connect efforts, identify gaps, and avoid duplication through improved conservation planning and design. Partner agencies and organizations coordinate with each other while working within their existing authorities and jurisdictions.

  3. Participating organizations • Kansas Department of Wildlife Parks and Tourism, and Kansas Applied Remote Sensing Program • Oklahoma Department of Wildlife Conservation • New Mexico Department of Game and Fish • Nebraska Game and Parks Commission • Texas Parks and Wildlife Department • Pheasants Forever / Quail Forever • National Wild Turkey Federation • Rainwater Basin Joint Venture • Bureau of Land Management • US Fish and Wildlife Service • Colorado Parks and Wildlife • The Nature Conservancy • Bureau of Reclamation • National Park Service • US Geological Survey • US Forest Service • Ducks Unlimited

  4. Survey Framework

  5. Human Resources Capacity unevenly distributed within and between organizations Work at varying scales, extents, boundaries Large pool of skills and knowledge but tend to work in silos

  6. Bureau of Land Management

  7. National Park Service

  8. Bureau of Reclamation

  9. US Fish and Wildlife Service

  10. US Forest Service

  11. Ducks Unlimited

  12. Geospatial data Collaborative data development could achieve more than individual projects Limited by restrictions on data sharing Consistent, high resolution land cover needed across region Could help coordinate LiDAR Climate, energy development, human impacts, ecological processes

  13. Applications Most require additional capacity for developing applications Esri – based map applications spreading, some are outdated ArcIMS sites

  14. Options

  15. Infrastructure Additional server capacity needed for large datasets Challenging to piece together data from existing portals / clearinghouses Cloud infrastructure is worth evaluating

  16. High priority Create data development working groups (starting with land cover) Evaluate technology options Implement data sharing portal

  17. Moderate priority Define requirements for applications Coordinate acquisition of licensed data Improve internal knowledge-sharing

  18. Low priority Increase external communication

  19. Project team http://www.greatplainslcc.org/ • Ty Guthrie • Ric Riester • Misti Vazquez • Mike Carter • James Broska
