The USDA ARRA Projects Map allows the American Public to find and view information about Recovery Act projects in web-based map display. The map is designed to increase transparency and accountability of federal spending by providing the public with additional methods of accessing project information.

The map allows the public to click on individual projects and access specific project information and comment blogs.

The data is provided by the individual agencies within the USDA and is based on actual monetary obligations such as contracts, awards, grants and agreements. This map does not comprise all USDA ARRA projects but does display the projects that have been reported thus far.

The map viewer is designed to work in all major web browsers which support full Google Maps functionality. Performance is optimal on those browsers and computer systems which are able to perform javascript operations quickly (ie. Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, Internet Explorer 7+). If JavaScript is turned off, the map viewer will not be available; however, all map data can be viewed by clicking on the View map data link at the top-right corner of the map.
