1 The California Protected Areas Database (CPAD) Larry Orman, Executive Director November, 2013

2 Roadmap 1. What are "protected areas"? 2. How CPAD works 3. Uses for CPAD data 4. Easement data 5. Next steps for CPAD 6. Q&A

3 GreenInfo Network Nonprofit GIS support group, U.S. focus 16 years, 600+ organizations 12 staff, projects at a time Wide range of geospatial capacities Works as consultant, no independent funding

4 Learn more about CPAD

5 Protected Open Space Parks, preserves, wilderness Owned in fee by agency or NGO... for primary purpose of maintaining for open space uses

6 Protected Open Space City and neighborhood parks (but not facilities) Regional and county parks, preserves Watersheds and acquired flood management areas Ecological preserves State, national parks National forests and BLM lands

7 But Not Public Land Generally Not civic centers, dumps, wastewater, other such public lands/sites Not military lands Not tribal lands (sovereign)

8 The CPAD Database GIS data 49+ million acres 14,000 parks 1,000 agencies Highly accurate v. 2013b (Sept, 2013)

9 The CPAD Database Top 100 agencies > 99% of acres Other 800+ agencies > 65% of units (mostly urban parks) 57,000 Holdings; 13,700 Super Units ( parks ) BY OWNERSHIP LEVEL (acres) Federal 44,088,000 State 2,876,000 County 330,000 City 705,000 Special District 603,000 Non-Profit 629,000 Private* 3,000 BY ACCESS (acres) Open 47,100,000 Restricted 1,635,000 Closed 415,000 Unknown 121,000

10 Here s What We re Trying to Create

11 Why a Good Inventory Matters 1 Lands owned in fee Lands with easements

12 Why a Good Inventory Matters

13 Where did CPAD come from? Bay Area, regional databases Some state inventory Full statewide database in 2008 Many funding partners State parks, CalFire, Coastal Conservancy Foundations Others

14 CPAD Improvement Project Strategic Growth Council Through USGS GAP $265,000, 20 months > April 2014 Objectives: Sustainability Improve data Improve systems Educate users

15 How CPAD Works Detailed documentation in the CPAD user manual - see

16 How CPAD is structured Geodatabase - Holdings and Units/Super Units Key attributes Agency Access Ownership Designation Size Dates, county, etc. Kennedy Park Jones Regional Preserve

17 How CPAD is structured Structure example:

18 CPAD Data Issues 1. Use of parcel data vs. source agency boundaries 2. Ownership/management determinations 3. Updates how best connect to 1,000 agencies Correction of older data accuracy/errors 5. Define holding designations ("watershed", "park", etc.) 6. Regional data aggregators (COGs, NCCPs, etc.) 7. HOAs, and others

19 CPAD Data Quality Issues

20 CPAD Data Quality Issues (parcel alignment USFS or Marin..)

21 1

22 CPAD Nationally - PAD-US Link Protected Areas Database of the U.S. USGS GAP State by state + federal CPAD is Calif. element in PADUS

23 PAD-US Key attributes: Agency Level Size Access Designation Gap rank gapanalysis.usgs.gov/padus

24 CPAD Uses Guidelines 1. Best use: multi-jurisdictional plans/programs/analyses Regional, county, some cities, watershed, bi-state, statewide, special project areas 2. Use caveats: 1. Does not replace source agency data 2. Updates do not canvass all 1,000 agencies for changes (focus on top 50+) 3. Alignments may differ from source agencies (parcels)

25 CPAD Uses 1. Sustainable Community Strategies (SCSs) 2. General Plans (mainly county), LAFCos, consultants 3. Land conservation planning, climate adaptation 4. Recreation needs analysis including tourism 5. Transportation facility siting (state, national, regional) 6. Flood, fire & other emergency planning and response 7. Researchers (social, conservation, political, accountability) 8. Law (Megan s law, other parole, regulation) 9. Utilities siting, routing, etc. (renewable energy siting) 10. more

26 CPAD Use Examples 1. Data assessment 2. Maps/display 3. Geospatial analysis 4. Web applications

37 Easements Conservation Easement removes development options retains private ownership Land ownership fee

38 Easement Data Coverage matters

39 Easements Who, what Conservation/open space easements Not utility or other types Permanent/very long term (vs. short term) Key agencies - governments, nonprofits... + private? Federal, state, some others Land trusts, other NGOs Home Owners Associations? Mitigation businesses?

40 Easement GIS Data CCED, NCED California Conservation Easement Database (CCED) National Conservation Easement Database (NCED) conservationeasement.us

41 Easement Data CCED is in process: 700,000 NCED easement acres in California 1,100,000+ easement acres in draft CCED GIS inventory 135 agencies/land trusts 1.4+ million total easement acres exist permissions challenge

42 Easement Data CCED in process - key issues: Cooperation in including easement data in CCED o o Privacy? Trespass? RESOLUTION: No names, No public access Many kinds of easements how account for? Alignment of easements to parcels

43 Directions for CPAD/CCED Funding/sustainability most important $125k/yr? funding, depends on institutional home Partnerships with key agencies/organizations Data improvement more reviews by agencies Parcels, alignment Connections to national PAD-US Expand users, get feedback
