This TNC Lands spatial dataset represents the lands and waters in which The Nature Conservancy (TNC) currently has an interest, legal or otherwise. The system of record for TNC Lands is the Legal Records Management (LRM) system, which is TNC’s database for all TNC land transactions.
TNC properties should not be considered open to the public unless specifically designated as being so. TNC may change the access status at any time at its sole discretion. It's recommended to visit preserve-specific websites or contact the organization operating the preserve before any planned visit for the latest conditions, notices, and closures. TNC prohibits redistribution or display of the data in maps or online in any way that misleadingly implies such lands are universally open to the public.
The Nature Conservancy (TNC) created/developed these data for public use. TNC makes no guarantee of accuracy or completeness. Data are for informational purposes and are not suitable for legal, engineering, or surveying purposes. Data do not replace an on-the-ground survey and represent only the best approximate relative location of feature boundaries. TNC is not obligated to update/maintain the data to reflect changing conditions. Commercial use is not allowed. Sharing the data (sub-licensing) is not allowed. Users must obtain a direct license by downloading the data themselves. TNC should be credited as the data source in derivative works.

The substance of these conditions and limitations must be legibly conveyed if TNC property data are used in online maps.

The WFDSS application is "data rich". It requires data which is spatially oriented and graphically displays information to support wildland fire and other natural resource decisions. Due to the type and number of interagency spatial data sets required in April 2009 an interagency GIS Team was formed to provide data support for WFDSS. This Team is responsible for acquiring, consolidating, and validating their agency spatial and tabular data. In addition this team developed and maintained communications among local, regional, and national agency personnel to improve the collection process and provide explicit guidance on data needs. The members of the WFDSS GIS Team are:
