California Conservation Easement Database Viewer

CCED represents California in the National Conservation Easement Database (NCED), a national inventory of lands conserved as easements. NCED is managed by a consortium of non-governmental organizations including: Ducks Unlimited, the Trust for Public Land, Defenders of Wildlife, Conservation Biology Institute, and NatureServe. Easement data is currently collected from agencies and organizations with little to no modifications or corrections. The records in the database are meant to reflect the generalized easement location and size. The accuracy of each easement boundary varies greatly. The database structure of CCED is a mirror of the NCED schema. This allows for more seamless integration of the California data into the national database. CCED Includes Easements Held By: Land trusts and nonprofit organizations Local jurisdictions (city and county) State and national governmental agencies
