Internment Camp Mapping

Client: The Conservation Fund

In 2005, the Conservation Fund established its Japanese-American Internment Camp Preservation Initiative to acquire lands once used as campsites to intern more than 120,000 Japanese-Americans during World War II. The sites stand today as a reminder of the injustices done to those Americans. WorldView has worked closely with TCF on the development of cartographic products the support their efforts to purchase unprotected land at the sites and to increase their level of protection through either federal legislation or national historic landmark designation.
