The Compatibility Review Mapping Tool is designed to provide military and other federal, state, and local stakeholders with spatial information to help further compatible use and development within their communities. The tool compiles a variety of GIS layers related to military operational areas and state and local programs to aid the user in understanding the proximity of military activities to communities and identify potential opportunities for increased communication and collaboration. When possible, contact information for the appropriate agency or office has been identified and included to facilitate coordination efforts. ​

The accompanying User Guide​ contains an overview of each layer, information pertaining to how jurisdictions can use the data in their own compatible land use planning practices, and source documentation.
