Seed zone mapper is a mapping and planning tool for plant material development, gene conservation, and native plant restoration. A seed zone is an area within which plant materials can be transferred with little risk of being poorly adapted to their new location. This site allows end-users to view and acquire data on seed zones for use in plant material development, gene conservation and native plant restoration activities. Users can also evaluate seed zones in relation to other map services and wildland threats published by WWETAC such as climate change projections or wildfire risk. Client applications range in functionality from a simple geobrowser (requires only a web browser) to ArcGIS ArcMap, a full-feature GIS software platform that allows the user to integrate their own data and create map layouts. These seed zone mapping applications are part of a family of Wildland Threat Mapping (WTM) applications developed by WWETAC to portray the spatial interactions of wildland threats and high value resources that occur in wildlands. Visit WWETAC's WTM page for a collection of these mapping applications.
