## What it is
An unofficial repository of National Park Service data (GeoJSON, TopoJSON, CSV, JSONP) maintained by the NPMap team for use in its mapping projects. It is not the official source; official datasets live in the NPS Data Store.

## Use cases
- get national park boundaries as geojson
- download NPS park data for a map
- find yellowstone points of interest data
- use national park service datasets in a web map
- get topojson of park boundaries
- source public domain GIS data for US parks

## When to choose
- you need convenient, map-ready GeoJSON/TopoJSON of NPS parks and related features
- you want public-domain data with no licensing restrictions
- you're building a visualization or app using NPS data

## When to avoid
- you need official, authoritative NPS datasets - use the NPS Data Store instead
- you need guaranteed data completeness or an official license

## Facets
- artifact type: dataset
- maturity: active
- function: data-science, geospatial
- domain: data-science, developer-tools
- platform: cross-platform
- tags: national-park-service, geojson, topojson, public-domain-data, npmap, maps, web-server
