Atlanta Botanical Garden

The Atlanta Botanical Garden will use IMLS funds to support the Garden’s Geographic Information System Mapping Project. The goals of the Mapping Project are to (1) develop an accurate and updatable layered basemap; (2) improve the accuracy of identifying and locating plant collections; (3) improve maintenance procedures for living collections; (4) increase the ability to monitor, update, and report for ongoing collections care projects throughout the southeastern United States, and (5) develop tools that will increase the public’s understanding and appreciation of living collections.
