The USGS Protected Areas Database of the United States (PAD-US) is the official inventory of public parks and other protected open space. The spatial data in PAD-US represents public lands held in trust by thousands of national, state and regional/local governments, as well as non-profit conservation organizations.Manager Type provides a coarse level land manager description from the PAD-US "Agency Type" Domain, "Manager Type" Field (for example, Federal, State, Local Government, Private).PAD-US is published by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Science Analytics and Synthesis (SAS), Gap Analysis Project (GAP). GAP produces data and tools that help meet critical national challenges such as biodiversity conservation, recreation, public health, climate change adaptation, and infrastructure investment. See the GAP webpage for more information about GAP and other GAP data including species and land cover.Dataset SummaryPhenomenon Mapped: This layer displays protected areas symbolized by manager type.Coordinate System: Web Mercator Auxiliary SphereExtent: 50 United States plus Puerto Rico, the US Virgin Islands, the Northern Mariana Islands and other Pacific Ocean IslandsVisible Scale: 1:1,000,000 and largerSource: U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Science Analytics and Synthesis (SAS), Gap Analysis Project (GAP) PAD-US version 3.0Publication Date: July 2022Attributes included in this layer are: CategoryOwner TypeOwner NameLocal OwnerManager TypeManager NameLocal ManagerDesignation TypeLocal DesignationUnit NameLocal NameSourcePublic AccessGAP Status - Status 1, 2, 3 or 4GAP Status DescriptionInternational Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Description - I: Strict Nature Reserve, II: National Park, III: Natural Monument or Feature, IV: Habitat/Species Management Area, V: Protected Landscape/Seascape, VI: Protected area with sustainable use of natural resources, Other conservation area, UnassignedDate of EstablishmentThe source data for this layer are available here. What can you do with this Feature Layer?Feature layers work throughout the ArcGIS system. Generally your work flow with feature layers will begin in ArcGIS Online or ArcGIS Pro. Below are just a few of the things you can do with a feature service in Online and Pro.ArcGIS OnlineAdd this layer to a map in the map viewer. The layer is limited to scales of approximately 1:1,000,000 or larger but a vector tile layer created from the same data can be used at smaller scales to produce a webmap that displays across the full range of scales. The layer or a map containing it can be used in an application.Change the layer’s transparency and set its visibility rangeOpen the layer’s attribute table and make selections and apply filters. Selections made in the map or table are reflected in the other. Center on selection allows you to zoom to features selected in the map or table and show selected records allows you to view the selected records in the table.Change the layer’s style and filter the data. For example, you could set a filter for Gap Status Code = 3 to create a map of only the GAP Status 3 areas.Add labels and set their propertiesCustomize the pop-upArcGIS ProAdd this layer to a 2d or 3d map. The same scale limit as Online applies in ProUse as an input to geoprocessing. For example, copy features allows you to select then export portions of the data to a new feature class. Note that many features in the PAD-US database overlap. For example wilderness area designations overlap US Forest Service and other federal lands. Any analysis should take this into consideration. An imagery layer created from the same data set can be used for geoprocessing analysis with larger extents and eliminates some of the complications arising from overlapping polygons.Change the symbology and the attribute field used to symbolize the dataOpen table and make interactive selections with the mapModify the pop-upsApply Definition Queries to create sub-sets of the layerThis layer is part of the Living Atlas of the World that provides an easy way to explore the landscape layers and many other beautiful and authoritative maps on hundreds of topics.

A Geospatial Data Resource Site (GDRS) is a structured collection of GIS apps and data used as the data structure that supports the Minnesota Geospatial Commons (MGC) and MNDNR Quick Layers (for ArcGIS Pro and ArcMap). The GDRS Manager application allows anyone to create their own local GDRS, either to be shared on an organization's network drive or to use offline. There is no installation for the GDRSManager. Simply download the application and double-click the executable file to run it. Current version: 1.0.0.44

Use https://resources.gisdata.mn.gov/pub/gdrs as the source GDRS to access the full public data from the MGC. Copy everything or select which datasets you want to copy to a local GDRS destination. If you have disk space or download speed limiations, sorting the resources by size and unselecting the largest resources is a quick way to reduce the size of a the GDRS but still have access to most of the resources.

Once you have a GDRS set up, run the application again whenever you want to update existing datasets or add additional datasets. You can even keep your data current by scheduling automatic updates to run gdrsmanager.exe through a bat file. For your reference, a template bat file gdrsmanager_console.bat is included in the application download. Just make sure to update the bat file to include the path to your copy of GDRS Manager, and schedule the bat file to run as desired.

The application download includes a comprehensive help document, which you can also access separately here:

The way to access Layers Quickly.

Quick Layers is an Add-In for ArcGIS Pro 3 that allows rapid access to the DNR's Geospatial Data Resource Site (GDRS). The GDRS is a data structure that serves core geospatial dataset and applications for not only DNR, but many state agencies, and supports the Minnesota Geospatial Commons. Data added from Quick Layers is pre-symbolized, helping to standardize visualization and map production. Current version: 3.11

To use Quick Layers with the GDRS, there's no need to download QuickLayers from this location. Instead, download a full copy or a custom subset of the public GDRS (including Quick Layers for ArcGIS Pro 3) using GDRS Manager.

Quick Layers also allows users to save and share their own pre-symbolized layers, thus increasing efficiency and consistency across the enterprise.

Installation:

After using GDRS Manager to create a GDRS, including Quick Layers, add the path to the Quick Layers addin to the list of shared folders:
1. Open ArcGIS Pro
2. Project -> Add-In Manager -> Options
3. Click add folder, and enter the location of the Quick Layers Pro app. For example, if your GDRS is mapped to the V drive, the path would be V:\gdrs\apps\pub\us_mn_state_dnr\quick_layers_pro3
4. After you do this, the Quick Layers ribbon will be available. To also add Quick Layers to the Quick Access Toolbar at the top, right click Quick Layers, and select Add to Quick Access Toolbar

The link below is only for those who are using Quick Layers without a GDRS. To get the most functionality out of Quick Layers, don't install it separately, but instead download it as part of a GDRS build using GDRS Manager.
