and plant species are being protected. It can be done at a state, local,
regional, or national level. Gap goal is to conduct analysis on keeping common
species common by identifying those species and plant communities that are not
adequately represented in existing conservation land.

vertebrate species and natural land cover types. Gap is a state leveled project
coordinated be the USGS, Biological Resources Division (BRD).
