The USGS is offering a grant for research and data development concerning conservation measures within protected areas across the United States. This initiative aims to facilitate data analyses crucial for informing land management policy. Recipients will engage in cooperative research, collaborating with federal land managers to critically assess the current conservation measures data framework, especially as it applies to federal lands. The project will evaluate the existing process considering contemporary views on biodiversity’s role in conservation. Outcomes will support significant revisions to the conservation measures section of the PAD-US Data Standard and update the Protected Areas Database of the United States (PAD-US) geodatabase, a key cooperative project sponsored by the USGS.
