Dataset
To provide public access to natural resource, environmental, geologic, water, land, and conservation-related datasets maintained by the state of Missouri agencies
The Natural Resources Collection is part of Missouri's Open Data Portal and serves as a repository for datasets related to Missouri's natural resources. The collection brings together data from agencies such as the Missouri Department of Natural Resources (MoDNR), including environmental, geological, hydrological, and land management information.
The collection contains datasets related to wells, groundwater resources, water quality standards, watersheds, wild areas, geology, hydrology, land resources, and environmental management. Examples of datasets available within the category include Missouri well datasets, Clean Water Information System (CWIS) water quality standards and watershed datasets, wild areas managed by the Missouri Department of Natural Resources, and other natural resource datasets published through Missouri's open data infrastructure.
Datasets are compiled and maintained by Missouri state agencies through environmental monitoring programs, groundwater and hydrologic investigations, geological surveys, land management activities, regulatory reporting systems, and GIS mapping initiatives. Data are published through Missouri's Open Data Portal and associated geospatial platforms to support public access and analysis. Methodologies vary according to the source dataset and the responsible agency
