The '''Gap Analysis Project''' ('''GAP''', previously called Gap Analysis Program)<ref>{{USGS|title=History|url=https://www.usgs.gov/programs/gap-analysis-project/history|author=Gap Analysis Project|accessdate=April 16, 2022}}</ref> is a nationwide program in the [[United States]] which uses [[gap analysis]] to assess and support the overall conservation status of wildlife. The program is directed and coordinated under the [[United States Geological Survey]], but is implemented in coordination with state and regional programs.
GAP works to ensure that common species – those that are not officially endangered – remain common by identifying those species and plant communities that are not adequately represented in existing conservation lands.
