ABOUT THE FARM PLANNING TOOL

The Climate Hub network works with United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) agencies and partners developing scientific information and technologies to support climate-smart decision making.

The Caribbean Climate Hub (CCH) is one of the eleven Climate Hubs with the mission to reduce risks by providing climatic adaptation strategies to farmers, ranchers, and landowners.

The Farm Planning Tool shows spatial information of environmental characteristics, planning and future climate scenarios for agricultural and forestry areas. The data included were collected from various state and federal government agencies.

FARM PLANNING TOOL

The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Caribbean Climate Hub (CCH) created the Farm Planning Tool. This tool is an interactive map where users can obtain a quick summary of spatial information on soils, climate, hydrology, and topography for any terrain.

The USDA CCH makes no warranty, expressed or implied, regarding these data, nor does the fact of distribution constitute such a warranty. The USDA CCH cannot assume liability for any damages caused by any errors or omissions in these data.

The USDA CCH is supported by the International Institute of Tropical Forestry (IITF). The geospatial data collection for the tool was conducted in the USDA Forest Service, IITF Remote Sensing and Geographic Information System Laboratory in San Juan, Puerto Rico. Further analysis to summarize the spatial information for each report was conducted by ThinkaMap, professional company (PC).
