The zip files attached below include the spatial data and symbology layers used to create the PAD-US 3.0 web services found on the PAD-US Viewer. These can be used to recreate the web services in applications that require the underlying spatial data. See the PAD-US Web Services page for direct access to service links and more information.

The Protected Areas Database of the United States (PAD-US) version 3.0 dataset was clipped to the 12 unified regional boundaries for the Department of the Interior (DOI) to provide data downloads for each of the regions. The unified regional boundaries are primarily based on a science-based approach to promote management efficiencies. The unified regions provide better management on an ecosystem basis to include critical components such as wildlife corridors, watersheds, and trail systems. For more information about the DOI regional boundaries see: https://www.doi.gov/employees/reorg/unified-regional-boundaries.

The Protected Areas Database of the United States (PAD-US) version 3.0 dataset was clipped to 56 State and Territorial boundaries to provide data downloads for areas of interest. The Census Bureau is the national steward for legally defined geographic area boundaries for State and Equivalent areas. The national sub-state geography geodatabase is updated annually and contains multiple layers reflecting selected geography, including state name and jurisdiction; this dataset is translated by USGS and used to standardize "State-Name" and improve boundary quality as a common reference for agencies contributing data for PAD-US.

PAD-US poster maps are available to increase awareness of PAD-US and aid user interpretation. The maps provide a general overview of management, not ownership, as Federal and other designated areas may overlap state, private, and other inholdings. The maps include U.S. States only (not Territories) based on the PAD-US 3.0 Combined Proclamation (Tribal areas and military lands are provided for context), Marine, Fee, Designation, Easement feature class, published by the USGS Science Analytics and Synthesis (SAS), Gap Analysis Project (GAP). The Managers and Federal Managers maps illustrate the land or marine management agency. The Protection Status map depicts GAP Status Code (a measure of management intent to conserve...

Data are available for download Nationally, by 12 Department of the Interior (DOI) regions, or 56 State/Territory boundaries. Select your desired file type — either ESRI ArcGIS 10 Geodatabase, Shapefile, Geopackage, GeoJSON, or KMZ. This may be especially helpful for users interested in a Combined PAD-US Fee, Designation, Easement shapefile or KMZ. The Census Bureau is the national steward for legally defined geographic area boundaries for State and Equivalent areas.
