This site is a legacy site for the work of the PAD-US Partnership, which operated between 2009 and May 2010, to develop a long term vision for U.S. protected areas data.

The two primary partners in this effort, the USGS Gap Analysis Program and the Conservation Biology Institute, have each continued with publication of their respective data sets - learn more about these data sets.

ProtectedLands.net is a resource for information on protected lands GIS inventories in the United States.

The PAD-US section of the website describes the land inventory database and efforts to improve how we track U.S. lands set aside for conservation, open space, recreation and other natural resource uses.
The Data Portal section of the web site contains a wide range of information on protected land inventories maintained by indivdual states, federal agencies and national non-profits. You are invited to help improve this information by directly contributing information about available protected areas data.
The PAD-US Partnership section of the web site describes the 2008-2010 design project to create a recommendation for a national inventory of protected areas.
