The Blueprint uses a least-cost path connectivity analysis to identify connections between priority areas. A program called Linkage Mapper defines corridors that link hubs across the shortest distance possible, while also routing through as much Blueprint priority as possible. Inland corridors connect large patches of highest priority Blueprint areas and/or protected lands. Marine and estuarine corridors connect large estuaries and/or large patches of highest priority Blueprint areas, within broad marine mammal movement areas.INLAND HUBS & CORRIDORSINLAND RESISTANCE RASTERThis is the resistance raster or cost surface used in the Linkage Mapper-based connectivity analysis for the inland portion of the Base Blueprint...

In collaboration with the Mississippi Department of Wildlife, Fisheries, and Parks Natural Heritage Program, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) developed the Mississippi Solar Siting Tool to provide stakeholders the general guidance necessary to reduce potential adverse impacts to sensitive habitats and species in Mississippi when siting proposed solar energy projects. The purpose of the map is to assist solar energy developers in screening environmentally sensitive areas compared to areas where lower environmental impacts are anticipated. The decision framework is similar to that described in the Service’s 2012 Land-Based Wind Energy Guidelines (Land-Based Wind Energy Guidelines), particularly during...
