Description:

Abstract:

GIS layer representing the stewardship/management of Oregon was compiled from multiple sources and scales. The base ownership layer for Oregon was compiled using preliminary information from The State Service Center for GIS (SSCGIS) and updated to includes State-Federal consolidation lands, USFS National Grasslands, The SSCGIS received map separate of the ownership layer from the Surface Management Status map series from the BLM. The SSCGIS scanned and vectorized the map separates into Arc/Info format. The digital linework was then merged into the SSCGIS digital state ownership GIS layer. The new set of polygons were attributed with a number in the database field "OWNER" to represent specific categories of ownership.

Purpose:

To fulfill the analytical mission of GAP, it is necessary to compare the mapped distribution of elements of biodiversity with their representation in different categories of land ownership and management. As will be explained in the Analysis section, these comparisons do not measure viability, but are a start to assessing the likelihood of future threat to a biotic element through habitat conversion—the primary cause of biodiversity decline. We use the term "stewardship" in place of "ownership" in recognition that legal ownership does not necessarily equate to the entity charged with management of the resource, and that the mix of ownership and managing entities is a complex and rapidly changing condition not suitably mapped by GAP. At the same time, it is necessary to distinguish between stewardship and management status in that a single category of land stewardship such as a national forest may contain several degrees of management for biodiversity.
