Atlas of the Vascular Plants of Wyoming
The Atlas of the Vascular Flora of Wyoming is a mapping project based upon the effort to capture specimen label data from the collections of the Rocky Mountain Herbarium (RM). Locality data from approximately 198,000 specimens has been georeferenced to about 9000 localities based upon Public Land Survey System (PLSS) township, range, and section. Using the database in conjunction with ArcView 3.0a (a GIS program by ESRI) and Adobe Acrobat 3.0, maps of species distribution have been produced for all taxa currently in the database.

In 1997 the Legislature directed the WWDC to conduct a water planning feasibility study with the assistance of the University of Wyoming (UW). In conjunction with the State Engineer and the University, the WWDC completed an intensive public outreach effort, a pilot analysis in the Bear River Basin and a statewide water data inventory. During the process, the planning team was advised by a multi-agency scoping group. An independent consulting firm under contract to the WWDC assisted with development of implementation recommendations.
