The IUCN Red List of Threatened Species (also known as the IUCN Red List or Red Data List), founded in 1948, is the world's most comprehensive inventory of the global conservation status of plant and animal species. The International Union for the Conservation of Nature and Natural Resources (IUCN) is the world's main authority on the conservation status of species. Starting in June of 2010, the IUCN red list has authorized the production of distribution maps from their spatial data. There are currently ~25,000 species on the Red List with spatial data. http://www.iucnredlist.org/technical-documents/spatial-data The data is available both in ESRI File Geodatabase format and the ESRI Shapefile format and is held in geographical coordinates. Please note that the files are large, and download times could be quite lengthy. While this data is made freely available to the public, please note that unfortunately we cannot provide technical support for use of the data in analyses or general GIS support. -- James Michael DuPont Member of Free Libre Open Source Software Kosova and Albania flossk.org flossal.org _______________________________________________ Imports mailing list Imports@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/imports
