USGS developed The National Map Gazetteer as the Federal and national standard (ANSI INCITS 446-2008) for geographic nomenclature based on the Geographic Names Information System (GNIS). The National Map Gazetteer contains information about physical and cultural geographic features, geographic areas, and locational entities that are generally recognizable and locatable by name (have achieved some landmark status) and are of interest to any level of government or to the public for any purpose that would lead to the representation of the feature in printed or electronic maps and/or geographic information systems. The dataset includes features of all types in the United States, its associated areas, and Antarctica, current and historical, but not including roads and highways. The dataset holds the federally recognized name of each feature and defines the feature location by state, county, USGS topographic map, and geographic coordinates. Other attributes include names or spellings other than the official name, feature classification, and historical and descriptive information. The dataset assigns a unique, permanent feature identifier, the Feature ID, as a standard Federal key for accessing, integrating, or reconciling feature data from multiple data sets. This dataset is a flat model, establishing no relationships between features, such as hierarchical, spatial, jurisdictional, organizational, administrative, or in any other manner. As an integral part of The National Map, the Gazetteer collects data from a broad program of partnerships with federal, state, and local government agencies and other authorized contributors. The Gazetteer provides data to all levels of government and to the public, as well as to numerous applications through a web query site, web map, feature and XML services, file download services, and customized files upon request. The National Map download client allows free downloads of public domain geographic names data by state in a pipe-delimited text format. For additional information on the GNIS, go to https://www.usgs.gov/tools/geographic-names-information-system-gnis. See https://apps.nationalmap.gov/help/ for assistance with The National Map viewer, download client, services, or metadata. Data Refreshed March, 2025

Date of Images:9/25 - PresentVisualization OverviewThis visualization represents a "false color" band combination (Red = DNB, Green = DNB, Blue = Inverted M15) of data collected by the VIIRS instrument on the joint NASA/NOAA Suomi-NPP satellite. The imagery is most useful for identifying nighttime lights from cities, fires, boats, and other phenomena. At its highest resolution, this visualization represents the underlying data scaled to a resolution of 500m per pixel at the equator.The algorithm to combine the VIIRS DNB and M15 bands into an RGB composite was originally designed by the Naval Research Lab and was subsequently incorporated into NASA research and applications efforts. As you will see, nighttime city lights appear in shades of yellow, while clouds appear in shades of blue to yellow/white as the illumination from the moon changes over the lunar month. Hence, this visualization is colloquially referred to as a "blue-yellow RGB."The following guidelines will aid in understanding this visualization.Interpretation of both the presence and relative brightness of the city lights will be affected by the lunar cycle. This composite offers a qualitative assessment of the light conditions and should not be used as the sole source of information concerning power outages. During bright moonlight conditions, moonlight reflected from cloud tops and the land surface may also provide a yellow hue to those features. Comparisons of cloud-free conditions before and after a period of significant change, such as new city growth, disasters, fires, or other factors, may exhibit a change in emitted light (yellows) from those features over time.Multi-Spectral BandsAt its highest resolution, this visualization represents the underlying data scaled from its native 750m per pixel resolution to 500m per pixel at the equator. The following table lists the VIIRS bands that are utilized to create this visualization. See here for a full description of all VIIRS bands.BandDescriptionWavelength (µm)Resolution (m)DNBVisible (reflective)0.5 - 0.9750DNBVisible (reflective)0.5 - 0.9750M15 (Inverted)Longwave IR10.26 - 11.26750Temporal CoverageBy default, this layer will display the imagery currently available for today’s date. This imagery is a "daily composite" that is assembled from hundreds of individual data files. When viewing imagery for “today,” you may notice that only a portion of the map has imagery. This is because the visualization is continually updated as the satellite collects more data. To view imagery over time, you can update the layer properties to enable time animation and configure time settings. Currently, this layer is available from present back to April 30th, 2021. In the coming months, this will be extended to the start of the mission (October 28th, 2011).Data AccessThis visualization is generated from hourly and daily Near-Real Time versions of the "VIIRS/NPP Daily Gridded Day Night Band 500m Linear Lat Lon Grid Night" (VNP46A1_NRT) data product distributed by the Land, Atmosphere Near real-time Capability for EOS (LANCE). A standard quality version of the data product (VNP46A1), which is distributed by the Level-1 and Atmosphere Archive & Distribution System Distributed Active Archive Center (LAADS DAAC), is also available within 1-2 days of acquisition. You may use the Earthdata Search client to search for near real-time and science quality data files and associated documentation and services. Additionally, you may use the Worldview Snapshots tool to download custom images in a GeoTIFF , JPEG, PNG, or KMZ format for offline use.NASA Global Imagery Browse Services (GIBS), NASA Worldview, & NASA LANCEThis visualization is provided through the NASA Global Imagery Browse Services (GIBS), which are a set of standard services to deliver global, full-resolution satellite imagery for hundreds of NASA Earth science datasets and science parameters. Through its services, and the NASA Worldview client, GIBS enables interactive exploration of NASA's Earth imagery for a broad range of users. The data and imagery are generated within 3 hours of acquisition through the NASA LANCE capability.Esri and NASA Collaborative ServicesThis visualization is made available through an ArcGIS image service hosted on Esri servers and facilitates access to a NASA GIBS service endpoint. For each image service request, the Esri server issues multiple requests to the GIBS service, processes and assembles the responses, and returns a proper mosaic image to the user. Processing occurs on-the-fly for each and every request to ensure that any update to the GIBS imagery is immediately available to the user. As such, availability of this visualization is dependent on both the Esri and the NASA GIBS services.

Reporter for MRGPThe Reporter for MRGP doesn't require you to download any apps to complete an inventory; all you need is an internet connection and web browser. The Reporter includes culverts and bridges from VTCULVERTS, town highways from Vtrans and the current status of the MRGP segments and outlets on the map.MRGP Fieldworker SolutionNotes on MRGP fieldworker solution: July 12, 2021. The MRGP map now displays the current status of road segments and outlets. Fieldworkers using the MRGP solution should remove the offline map area(s) from their device, and keep their new offline map current, by syncing their map. Enabling auto-sync will get you the current segment or outlet status automatically. See FAQ section below for more information. Road Erosion Inventory forms are available and have a new look and feel this year. The drainage ditch survey is broken out into three pages for a better user experience. The first page contains survey and segment information, the second; the inventory, and the third; barriers to implementation. You will notice the questions are outlined by section so it’s easier to follow along too. The questions have remained the same. Survey123 has a new option requiring users to update surveys on their mobile device. That option has been enabled for the two MRGP Survey123 forms. Step 1: Download the free mobile appsFor fieldworkers to collect and submit data to VT DEC, two free apps are required: ArcGIS Collector or Field Maps and Survey123. ArcGIS Collector or Field Maps is used first to locate the segment or outlet for inventory, and Survey123, for completing the Road Erosion Inventory. ArcGIS Field Maps is ESRI’s new all-in-one app for field work and will replace ArcGIS Collector. You can download ArcGIS Collector or ArcGIS Fields Maps and Survey123 from the Google Play Store.You can download ArcGIS Collector or ArcGIS Field Maps and Survey123 from Apple Store.
Step 2: Sign into the mobile appYou will need appropriate credentials to access fieldworker solution, please contact your Regional Planning Commission’s Transportation Planner or Jim Ryan (MRGP Program Lead) at (802) 490-6140.Open Collector for ArcGIS, select ‘ArcGIS Online’ as shown below, and enter the user name and password. The credential is saved unless you sign out. Step 3: Open the MRGP Mobile MapIf you’re working in an area that has a reliable data connection (e.g. LTE or 4G), open the map below by selecting it.Step 4: Select a road segment or outlet for inventoryUse your location, button circled in red below, select the segment or outlet you need to inventory, and select 'Update Road Segment Status' from the pop-up to launch Survey123.
Step 5: Complete the Road Erosion Inventory and submit inventory to DECSelecting 'Update Road Segment Status' opens Survey123, downloads the relevant survey and pre-populates the REI with important information for reporting to DEC. You will have to enter the same username and password to access the REI forms. The credential is saved unless you sign out of Survey123.Complete the survey using the appropriate supplement below and submit the assessment directly to VT DEC.Paved Roads with Catch Basin SupplementPaved and Gravel Roads with Drainage Ditches Supplement
Step 6: Repeat!Go back to the ArcGIS Collector or Field Maps and select the next segment for inventory and repeat steps 1-5.
If you have question related to inventory protocol reach out to Jim Ryan, MRGP Program Lead, at jim.ryan@vermont.gov, (802) 490-6140If you have questions about implementing the mobile data collection piece please contact Ryan Knox, ADS-ANR IT, at ryan.knox@vermont.gov, (802) 793-0297
The location where I'm doing inventory does not have a data coverage (LTE or 4G). What can I do?ArcGIS Collector allows you take map areas offline when you think there will be spotty or no data coverage. I made a video to demonstrate the steps for taking map areas offline - https://youtu.be/OEsJrCVT8BISurvey123 operates offline by default but you need to download the survey. My recommendation is to test the fieldworker solution (Steps 1-5) before you go into the field but don't submit the test survey.Where can I download the Road Erosion Scoring shown on the the Atlas? You can download the scoring for both outlets and road segments through the VT Open Geodata Portal.https://geodata.vermont.gov/maps/VTANR::mrgp-scoring-open-data/aboutHow do I use my own ArcGIS Collector map for launching the official MRGP REI survey form? You can use the following custom url for launching Survey123, open the REI and prepopulate answers in the form. More information is here. TIP: add what's below directly in the HTML view of the popup not the link as described in the post I provided.
Hydrologically connected
segments (lines):Update Road Segment Status
Segment ID: {SegmentID}
Segment Status: {SegmentStatus}
{RoadName}, {Municipality}
Outlets: {Outlets}
Hydrologically
connected outlets (points):Update Outlet Status
Outlet ID: {OutletID}
Municipality: {Municipality}
Erosion: {ErosionValue}
How do I save my name and organization information used in subsequent surveys? Watch this short video or execute the steps below:
Open Survey123 and open a blank REI form (Collect button) Note: it's important to open a blank form so you don't save the same segment id for all your surveys Fill-in your 'Name' and 'Organization' and clear the 'Date of Assessment field' (x button). Using the favorites menu in the top-right corner you can use the current state of your survey to 'Set as favorite answers.' Close survey and 'Save this survey in Drafts.' Use Collector to launch survey from selected feature (segment or outlet). Using the favorites menu again, 'Paste answers from favorite.
What if the map doesn't have the outlet or road segment I need to inventory for the MRGP? Go Directly to Survey123 and complete the appropriate Road Erosion Inventory and submit the data to DEC. The survey includes a Geopoint (location) that we can use to determine where you completed the inventory.
Where can I view the Road Erosion Inventories completed with Survey123? Using the MRGP credentials you have access to another map that shows completed REIs.Web map - Completed Road Erosion Inventories for MRGPWhere can I download the 2020-2021 data collected with Survey123?Road Segments (lines) - https://vtanr.maps.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=f8a11de8a5a0469596ef11429ab49465Outlets (points) - https://vtanr.maps.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=ae13a925a662490184d5c5b1b9621672Where can I download the 2019 data collected with Survey123?

This 2019 version of the MRGP Outlets is based on professional mapping completed using DEC's Stormwater Infrastructure dataset. In catch basin systems, work was completed to match outlets to road segments that drain to them. The outlets here correspond to Outlet IDs identified in the Hydrologically connected roads segments layer. For outlets that meet standard, road segments will also meet the standard for MRGP compliance.

Esri ArcGIS Online (AGOL) Feature Layer for accessing the Maryland 2100 Nuisance Tidal Inundation - Flood Depth Grid data.Maryland 2100 Nuisance Tidal Inundation - Flood Depth Grid data consists of geographic areas throughout the State of Maryland that are projected to be impacted by a nuisance tidal flooding scenario in year 2100.The notion of nuisance tidal flooding, also known as sunny-day flooding, as a current threat to transportation infrastructure has become better understood. In most coastal locations, these abnormally high tides have traditionally occurred a few times per year, degrading road support facilities and causing traffic congestion. However, NOAA has documented that nuisance flooding has become significantly more common in the Chesapeake Bay watershed. In time, nuisance flooding is expected to become even more frequent and more hazardous as the area experiences sea-level change. Currently, there is no known map of areas prone to nuisance flooding.Maryland 2100 Nuisance Tidal Inundation - Flood Depth Grid data represents projected stillwater depths (ft) during a 'nuisance' tidal flooding scenario. This data is an attempt to aid in identifying potential vulnerabilities along Maryland's roadway infrastructure. The data supports MDOT State Highway Administration leadership and planners as they endeavor to mitigate or prevent the impacts of sea level change resulting from land surface subsidence and rising sea levels. The product uses sea-level projections to forecasts areas of inundation for a given scenario. University of Maryland Center for Environmental Science (UMCES) provides the sea level change (SLC) estimate. SLC is localized using qualifying National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) tidal reference stations.The data may be used and redistributed for free but is not intended for legal use, since it likely contains inaccuracies.

This is because the visualization is continually updated as the satellite collects more data. To view imagery over time, you can update the layer properties to enable time animation and configure time settings. Currently, this layer is available from present back to April 30th, 2021. In the coming months, this will be extended to the start of the mission (October 28th, 2011).Data AccessThis visualization is generated from hourly and daily Near-Real Time versions of the "VIIRS/NPP Daily Gridded Day Night Band 500m Linear Lat Lon Grid Night" (VNP46A1_NRT) data product distributed by the Land, Atmosphere Near real-time Capability for EOS (LANCE). A standard quality version of the data product (VNP46A1), which is distributed by the Level-1 and Atmosphere Archive & Distribution System Distributed Active Archive Center (LAADS DAAC), is also available within 1-2 days of acquisition. You may use the Earthdata Search client to search for near real-time and science quality data files and associated documentation and services. Additionally, you may use the Worldview Snapshots tool to download custom images in a GeoTIFF , JPEG, PNG, or KMZ format for offline use.NASA Global Imagery Browse Services (GIBS), NASA Worldview, & NASA LANCEThis visualization is provided through the NASA Global Imagery Browse Services (GIBS), which are a set of standard services to deliver global, full-resolution satellite imagery for hundreds of NASA Earth science datasets and science parameters. Through its services, and the NASA Worldview client, GIBS enables interactive exploration of NASA's Earth imagery for a broad range of users. The data and imagery are generated within 3 hours of acquisition through the NASA LANCE capability.Esri and NASA Collaborative ServicesThis visualization is made available through an ArcGIS image service hosted on Esri servers and facilitates access to a NASA GIBS service endpoint. For each image service request, the Esri server issues multiple requests to the GIBS service, processes and assembles the responses, and returns a proper mosaic image to the user. Processing occurs on-the-fly for each and every request to ensure that any update to the GIBS imagery is immediately available to the user. As such, availability of this visualization is dependent on both the Esri and the NASA GIBS services.

Visualization OverviewThis visualization represents a "false color" band combination (Red = DNB, Green = DNB, Blue = Inverted M15) of data collected by the VIIRS instrument on the joint NASA/NOAA Suomi-NPP satellite. The imagery is most useful for identifying nighttime lights from cities, fires, boats, and other phenomena. At its highest resolution, this visualization represents the underlying data scaled to a resolution of 500m per pixel at the equator.The algorithm to combine the VIIRS DNB and M15 bands into an RGB composite was originally designed by the Naval Research Lab and was subsequently incorporated into NASA research and applications efforts. As you will see, nighttime city lights appear in shades of yellow, while clouds appear in shades of blue to yellow/white as the illumination from the moon changes over the lunar month. Hence, this visualization is colloquially referred to as a "blue-yellow RGB."The following guidelines will aid in understanding this visualization.Interpretation of both the presence and relative brightness of the city lights will be affected by the lunar cycle. This composite offers a qualitative assessment of the light conditions and should not be used as the sole source of information concerning power outages. During bright moonlight conditions, moonlight reflected from cloud tops and the land surface may also provide a yellow hue to those features. Comparisons of cloud-free conditions before and after a period of significant change, such as new city growth, disasters, fires, or other factors, may exhibit a change in emitted light (yellows) from those features over time.Multi-Spectral BandsAt its highest resolution, this visualization represents the underlying data scaled from its native 750m per pixel resolution to 500m per pixel at the equator. The following table lists the VIIRS bands that are utilized to create this visualization.

This web map features a vector basemap of OpenStreetMap (OSM) data created and hosted by Esri. Esri produced this vector tile basemap in ArcGIS Pro from a live replica of OSM data, hosted by Esri, and rendered using a creative cartographic style emulating a blueprint technical drawing. The vector tiles are updated every few weeks with the latest OSM data. This vector basemap is freely available for any user or developer to build into their web map or web mapping apps.OpenStreetMap (OSM) is an open collaborative project to create a free editable map of the world. Volunteers gather location data using GPS, local knowledge, and other free sources of information and upload it. The resulting free map can be viewed and downloaded from the OpenStreetMap site: www.OpenStreetMap.org. Esri is a supporter of the OSM project and is excited to make this new vector basemap available available to the OSM, GIS, and Developer communities.
