NPLCC Priorities Tool

Overview
The Priorities Tool is a watershed visualization and priorities decision support system for the North Pacific LCC developed by Ecotrust.
This spatially explicit, online tool is intended to assist the North Pacific LCC and other natural resource managers, individuals, and community organizations in accessing disparate data sources for understanding and visualizing a wide variety of data sets pertaining to species, threats and potential effects of climate change on freshwater and forest ecosystems throughout the North Pacific LCC geographic area.
At the heart of the tool is a prioritization process that allows users to specify an area of interest, species of interest and constraints (such as vulnerability to climate change or threats to watershed condition).
Audience
Resource managers, conservation planners, concerned citizens and other non-technical users
Registered users can create, edit and share scenarios by specifying the importance of given species for select geographies while considering potential threats and vulnerabilities.
