The ROW as Habitat Geospatial Database allows your organization to store and track information about habitat restoration projects and conservation measures on your lands. The database quantifies pollinator habitat managed on energy and transportation rights-of-way (ROW) and other lands to inform habitat restoration activities, communicate the conservation value of ROW, and facilitate collaborative projects between participating organizations.
