Ecoregions, Hydrography/Watersheds, Land Cover and Protected Areas Map Application

In my day job, I work with geographic information systems (GIS) for environmental and water quality applications. I thought some of the publicly available environmental layers might be of interest to INat users to better understand the ecosystems they visit, so I created a simply web map application. Users can turn on/off ecoregions (US EPA), hydrography and watersheds (USGS/NRCS National Hydrography Dataset/Watershed Boundary Dataset, National Land Cover Dataset (MRLC) and the Protected Areas Dataset (USGS) to better understand landscapes and their ecosystems. You can click on map features to get a pop-up window with more information. I created this in a few minutes using a template and accepting many of the default choices, so it could certainly be fine-tuned to make it more user-friendly if there is an interest. If you like it or have questions, let me know. The URL is:
