Quick Reports
Welcome to the Conservation Registry!
The Conservation Registry is a smart, accessible database and mapping system that allows users to enter, search, map and track interesting conservation projects. The registry gathers data from multiple sources, ranging from small organizations and landowners to federal resource agencies, non-profit organizations, tribes and foundations. The purpose of the registry is to help users understand the context, distribution, and effectiveness of our collective efforts to protect and restore ecosystems.
About the Conservation Registry
The concept of the registry emerged from our need to understand the scope of conservation activities across the landscape and to identify areas where landowners and organizations can generate the greatest strategic benefits for fish and wildlife.
Registry Tools
Search
You can search for conservation projects using the Search box at the top of the site or Advanced Search for more detailed queries. The Quick Search has a number of pre-defined searches that you can edit and save to the My Registry section.
Keywords
Keywords allow users to describe their projects informally. You can browse projects by keywords to see projects that share keywords and have similar attributes.
Quick Reports
Quick Reports provide you with a summary of projects within a state. You’ll see project distribution by county as well as top action types, species, habitats, and more.
Add a Project
If you have just a few conservation projects or no system for managing projects, create a registry account and use Add a Project to enter project data manually, draw project sites right on the map, and store your projects in My Registry.
Mapping Tool
Using a modified version of Google Maps, anyone can view conservation projects anywhere in the United States. Project locations are shown on the map with pop-up balloons that describe the project. Custom map overlays show priority areas, ecoregions, watersheds and more.
Users with accounts can add their projects directly to the map using drawing tools that show their sites as points, lines or polygons using the Add a Project feature.
