Data Sources¶
Note
If you’re visiting from the CABD web tool, and accidentally closed your tab, you can navigate back to the web tool here.
The CABD only exists due to all the painstaking work done by many groups and organizations who have compiled and maintained existing barrier inventories across North America, and either made them openly available or entered into data-sharing agreements with us. A special thank you to these groups! The CABD simply builds off this existing work, and we hope that our work to fill data gaps can benefit original data holders in return. If you are the maintainer of one of the data sources on this page, and would like to chat about how we can share some of our data updates back to you, please contact us at cabd@cwf-fcf.org.
A lot of the work done on the CABD involved de-duplicating and combining attributes for where two or more data sources have a point representing the same structure. This means that for a single point in the CABD, attribute information may be coming from multiple different sources, which makes data-source attribution a bit tricky! We’ve come up with a solution to map where each attribute in a CABD data point comes from, check out the Feature Data Source Details Download page for more information.
