No, NatureConnect is the suite of services, tools, and products that the Center for Large Landscape Conservation offers through contracts or grants. It is our way to show the full spectrum of our capabilities in one central “menu” to make it easier for partners to envision ways in which we might work together.
Because we work with such a wide range of partners and geographies, there is no one-size-fits-all solution or pricing structure. Our NatureConnect services are competitively and fairly priced, and thoughtfully designed to most efficiently and effectively support our partners. Once we provide an initial free consultation to learn more about your project, we can prepare a cost estimate based on the number of staff members, their areas of expertise, and the amount of hours needed to complete the work.
While we strive to provide examples to illustrate our services, tools, and products, in some cases we are not able to share our work because it is still in progress, or because the products and data resulting from our work are owned by the contracting agency or organization.
We recognize that maps and spatial data, in particular, can contain sensitive information. We are committed to respecting data sovereignty and maintaining discretion at the request of our partners. We ensure that any sensitive information shared with us is handled with the utmost care and confidentiality.
