The purpose of site maps are to depict the key
features of the site, delineate its geographic extent, identify
key parcels or areas within the site, and map the conservation
targets for the site.
Questions to Answer:
When creating site maps,
consider the following questions:
• How can maps best depict
the conservation targets/resources of the site?
• What
maps of the site or area are already available?
• If someone
not familiar with the site reviewed the maps, would they gain information
not
otherwise presented by the site plan?
Examples:
- Topographic
maps – U.S. Geographic Services
- GIS based maps – including
land use data, political boundaries, roads and other developed
areas, waterways, etc.
- Plat maps indicating parcel ownerships
- Conservation
strategy maps – where on the landscape will
strategies be implemented
Project Area Broundary with protective land ownership
Parcel data with level of protection priority
