Overview: Join us on Tuesday, December 7th at 3 PM EDT to hear from Elizabeth McCartney, the National Digital Trails (NDT) Project Manager, and Tatyana DiMascio, NDT Project Technical Lead, both from the National Geospatial Program at U.S Geological Survey. During this presentation, we'll discuss:

• The goals of the National Digital Trails Project
• TRAILS (Trail Routing, Analysis, and Information Linkage System), a web-based trail planning tool that serves to identify potential routes for connecting existing trails and trail systems
• The Nationwide Trails Dataset, a public domain dataset of federal and many statewide trails 
• The Trail Data Portal that provides a path for authoritative trail managers to upload their trails into the Nationwide Trails Dataset
• Future plans for the project

Both the TRAILS tool and the Trail Data Portal will be demonstrated. There will be time to ask questions about the project and tools that are presented.
