Our wonderful donors, along with <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Gates Family Foundation (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/gatesfamilyfoundation.org\/\" target=\"_blank\">Gates Family Foundation<\/a>, have provided the support we need on the front end to launch this innovative tool for Colorado.  The CERT is an interactive mapping website that hosts critical natural resources data for planners and decision makers in Colorado. The CERT provides easy access to natural resources data, leading to better conservation decisions that take into account related systems and potential impacts on natural resources. The CERT will synthesize sensitive species data from CNHP, <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"CPW (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/cpw.state.co.us\/\" target=\"_blank\">CPW<\/a>, <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"IMBCR (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/birdconservancy.org\/what-we-do\/science\/monitoring\/imbcr-program\/\" target=\"_blank\">IMBCR<\/a>, and <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"USFWS  (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.fws.gov\/\" target=\"_blank\">USFWS <\/a>along with a myriad of useful resources for conservation planning. Users will be able to submit project areas for review, obtain comprehensive conservation planning information, make maps, run analyses, and complete regulatory compliance requirements. The same technology, developed by <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"NatureServe (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.natureserve.org\/\" target=\"_blank\">NatureServe<\/a>, is already doing this in ten other states. The CERT will also provide a range of functions to support private lands conservation and the conservation easement process. COMaP, Colorado\u2019s comprehensive map of conserved lands including easements, will be available within the CERT. The CERT will support trail planning along with empowering Colorado\u2019s implementation of the SHIFT principles, and the <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Statewide Comprehensive Outdoor Recreation Plan (SCORP) (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/cpw.state.co.us\/aboutus\/Pages\/SCORP.aspx\" target=\"_blank\">Statewide Comprehensive Outdoor Recreation Plan (SCORP)<\/a>.
