This map represents a potential Conservation Target (CT) for PFLCC's Pine Flatwoods and Dry Prairie' (PFDP) Priority Resource (PR). The potential CT is Protected Areas. These layers were created for an initial investigation of potential CT's suggested at brainstorming workshops. The initial investigation entails locating available datasets to address the suggested CT as closely as possible and performing minimal analyses to determine their usefulness. The final set of CT's and their associated datasets will be chosen after targets (e.g., endpoints) are established as a threshold for achieving conservation success for that CT.

Summary
This map represents a potential Conservation Target (CT) for PFLCC's Pine Flatwoods and Dry Prairie' (PFDP) Priority Resource (PR). The potential CT is Protected Areas. These layers were created for an initial investigation of potential CT's suggested at brainstorming workshops. The initial investigation entails locating available datasets to address the suggested CT as closely as possible and performing minimal analyses to determine their usefulness. The final set of CT's and their associated datasets will be chosen after targets (e.g., endpoints) are established as a threshold for achieving conservation success for that CT.
For a description of the priority resource layer, see the Pine Flatwoods and Dry Prairie Priority Resource layer found in this gallery.
The data layer available for evaluating the area under management and/or protection is the Florida Natural Areas Inventory Florida Conservation Lands (FMLA) layer. This shapefile shows all lands in Florida that are protected/managed at least partially for conservation purposes. It is updated quarterly and so provides the opportunity for continued monitoring. For more information, see the FNAI website.
For a summary of the results of this analysis, see the ‘Pine Flatwoods and Dry Prairie' webinar (pdf) in the PFDP gallery.
