Connectivity Roadmaps
Incorporating ecological connectivity into conservation planning and land management can be challenging, particularly as practitioners balance competing priorities and work across jurisdictions. As more states, municipalities, and organizations integrate connectivity into planning efforts, there is value in sharing successful approaches and lessons learned. Planning documents, decision-support tools, and interactive mapping platforms can provide practical examples that help practitioners adapt proven methods to their own landscapes.
