Smart maps, stronger conservation: Targeting land protection with GIS

October 21, 2025

1:00 pm – 2:00 pm
Location: Virtual

Northern Waters Land Trust (NWLT) will be presenting on their Midwest Glacial Lakes Partnership (MGLP)-funded project, which developed an interactive GIS mapping tool to identify and prioritize land protection projects within the watersheds of Lakes of Outstanding Biological Significance (LOBS). In collaboration with a Minnesota DNR researcher, a GIS specialist, and NWLT staff, each parcel within these sensitive watersheds was systematically scored to determine conservation priority.
