About TEAM

What is TEAM?
The Texas Ecosystem Analytical Mapper, TEAM, delivers the Ecological Mapping Systems of Texas (EMS) data to Texas citizens in an easy to use format. The TEAM application is an interactive mapping tool that assists users in understanding the Texas Landscape and integrates EMS data with land management and resource planning of all types.
 
What can TEAM do?
In TEAM you can view and print the EMS data in relationship to other natural feature layers such as soils, geology, hydrology and ecoregion. You can upload or draw boundary files in order to create and print custom maps and reports of EMS data. Other capabilities include exporting the map and report to a pdf and calculating the number of acreas of each vegetation type within the area of interest.
 
Who uses TEAM and why?
Anyone can use TEAM but it was designed with Educators, planners, land managers, naturalists, scientists, and conservationists in mind. TEAM supports landscape planning approaches incorporating the most current data and provides an avenue for community involvement in ecological understanding.
