The Mitigation Wizard
Use this tool to find the predicted impacts on species that might require mitigation, and then see where you might locate protection or restoration projects. You’ll decide where to measure impact, where to seek mitigation, and which species to focus on. Then you can fine-tune your search by landcover, protected status, and other factors. And finally export your results.
Let’s get started!
Do you know your project impacts already?

The Mitigation Wizard is designed as a screening-level evaluation tool based on modeled habitat. Sources for more accurate natural resource data may exist in your area of interest. Please consult with the appropriate agencies and organizations. Furthermore, site visits and biological surveys are essential for parcels of all sizes when considering conservation actions.
