Welcome to the NRCS Natural Resources Inventory and Analysis Institute Web Site

On May 5, 2004, the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) announced a reorganization effort designed to streamline the agency to better meet the growing demands for NRCS services.  To learn more about the reorganization, visit http://www.nrcs.usda.gov/about/reorg/.

Effective September 5, 2004; NRCS will officially close offices for the Institutes, Cooperative Scientists, and Regional Offices.  Information from this website will be transferred to new locations within the NRCS web network.  We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause during this transition period, and look forward to serving you from our new locations.  Economic and demographic information from this site has been transferred to http://www.economics.nrcs.usda.gov/.  Information on the Natural Resources Inventory has been transferred to http://www.nrcs.usda.gov/technical/NRI/.

The Natural Resources Inventory and Analysis Institute (NRIAI) was created to improve the NRCS's ability to inventory, monitor, and assess status and trends of our nation's natural and environmental resources.  The Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) works in partnership with the American people to conserve and sustain natural resources on private lands.
