The Rangeland Analysis Platform (rangelands.app) is a free online application that provides simple and fast access to geospatial vegetation data for U.S. rangelands. The tool was developed to provide landowners, resource managers, conservationists, and scientists access to data that can inform land management planning, decision making, and the evaluation of outcomes.

Useful for long-term trends, especially woody encroachment and bare ground.
