Accounting for Ecosystem Services in Baltimore, Maryland: The EcoValue Project Website
 
Matthew Wilson and Christopher Treg

 
The EcoValue Project provides an interactive decision support system for assessing and reporting the economic value of ecosystem goods and services in geographic context for the State of Maryland and Baltimore County. The project combines Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and relational database technology to provide interactive maps, graphs and statistics that are dynamically generated by linking together the best available peer-reviewed valuation literature and GIS land cover layers in a flexible web-based platform. Results are downloadable in both spreadsheet and graphic interchange formats. The results of this project are now available at: http://ecovalue.uvm.edu/evp/md/
