The Gulf Coast Prairies LCC has initiated efforts to improve biological planning and landscape conservation design with a focus on implementing State Wildlife Plans (SWAPs) for the benefit of focal species and pollinators. To facilitate landscape conservation planning, the GCP LCC has supported land cover data projects as well as refining a platform for grassland planning, inventory and monitoring (G-MIT). These data are shared nationally through ScienceBase and the GCP Conservation Planning Atlas and used to inform their Grassland Decision Support Tool. While this work has been limited to parts of Texas and Oklahoma there is great interest and need to create high resolution, seamless and consistent land cover data for the Western Gulf Coastal Plain of Louisiana and Texas. These data will improve ongoing efforts to create a grassland land cover data set and will integrate with research and monitoring efforts such as the Gulf of Mexico Avian Monitoring Network, USGS pollinator survey and Monarch conservation planning efforts.
