This resources contains PDF files and Python notebook files that demonstrate how to create geospatial resources in HydroShare and how to use these resources through web services provided by the built-in HydroShare GeoServer instance. Geospatial resources can be consumed directly into ArcMap, ArcGIS, Story Maps, Quantum GIS (QGIS), Leaflet, and many other mapping environments. This provides HydroShare users with the ability to store data and retrieve it via services without needing to set up new data services. All tutorials cover how to add WMS and WFS connections. WCS connections are available for QGIS and are covered in the QGIS tutorial. The tutorials and examples provided here are intended to get the novice user up-to-speed with WMS and GeoServer, though we encourage users to read further on these topic using internet searches and other resources. Also included in this resource is a tutorial designed to that walk users through the process of creating a GeoServer connected resource.

Deprecation notice: This tool is deprecated because this functionality is now available with out-of-the-box tools in ArcGIS Pro. The tool author will no longer be making further enhancements or fixing major bugs.Use Add GTFS to a Network Dataset to incorporate transit data into a network dataset so you can perform schedule-aware analyses using the Network Analyst tools in ArcMap.After creating your network dataset, you can use the ArcGIS Network Analyst tools, like Service Area and OD Cost Matrix, to perform transit/pedestrian accessibility analyses, make decisions about where to locate new facilities, find populations underserved by transit or particular types of facilities, or visualize the areas reachable from your business at different times of day. You can also publish services in ArcGIS Server that use your network dataset.The Add GTFS to a Network Dataset tool suite consists of a toolbox to pre-process the GTFS data to prepare it for use in the network dataset and a custom GTFS transit evaluator you must install that helps the network dataset read the GTFS schedules. A user's guide is included to help you set up your network dataset and run analyses.Instructions:Download the tool. It will be a zip file.Unzip the file and put it in a permanent location on your machine where you won't lose it. Do not save the unzipped tool folder on a network drive, the Desktop, or any other special reserved Windows folders (like C:\Program Files) because this could cause problems later.The unzipped file contains an installer, AddGTFStoaNetworkDataset_Installer.exe. Double-click this to run it. The installation should proceed quickly, and it should say "Completed" when finished.Read the User's Guide for instructions on creating and using your network dataset.System requirements:ArcMap 10.1 or higher with a Desktop Standard (ArcEditor) license.

This layer shows basic population and housing context. This is shown by tract, county, and state boundaries. This service is updated annually to contain the most currently released American Community Survey (ACS) 5-year data, and contains estimates and margins of error. There are also additional calculated attributes related to this topic, which can be mapped or used within analysis. This layer is symbolized to show the predominant housing type: owner-occupied, renter-occupied, or vacant. To see the full list of attributes available in this service, go to the "Data" tab, and choose "Fields" at the top right. Current Vintage: 2019-2023ACS Table(s): B01001, B03002, B05003, B05011, B19049, B25002, B25003, B25058, B25077 Data downloaded from: Census Bureau's API for American Community Survey Date of API call: December 12, 2024National Figures: data.census.govThe United States Census Bureau's American Community Survey (ACS):About the SurveyGeography & ACSTechnical DocumentationNews & UpdatesThis ready-to-use layer can be used within ArcGIS Pro, ArcGIS Online, its configurable apps, dashboards, Story Maps, custom apps, and mobile apps. Data can also be exported for offline workflows. For more information about ACS layers, visit the FAQ. Please cite the Census and ACS when using this data.Data Note from the Census:Data are based on a sample and are subject to sampling variability. The degree of uncertainty for an estimate arising from sampling variability is represented through the use of a margin of error. The value shown here is the 90 percent margin of error. The margin of error can be interpreted as providing a 90 percent probability that the interval defined by the estimate minus the margin of error and the estimate plus the margin of error (the lower and upper confidence bounds) contains the true value. In addition to sampling variability, the ACS estimates are subject to nonsampling error (for a discussion of nonsampling variability, see Accuracy of the Data). The effect of nonsampling error is not represented in these tables.Data Processing Notes:This layer is updated automatically when the most current vintage of ACS data is released each year, usually in December. The layer always contains the latest available ACS 5-year estimates. It is updated annually within days of the Census Bureau's release schedule. Click here to learn more about ACS data releases.Boundaries come from the US Census TIGER geodatabases, specifically, the National Sub-State Geography Database (named tlgdb_(year)_a_us_substategeo.gdb). Boundaries are updated at the same time as the data updates (annually), and the boundary vintage appropriately matches the data vintage as specified by the Census. These are Census boundaries with water and/or coastlines erased for cartographic and mapping purposes. For census tracts, the water cutouts are derived from a subset of the 2020 Areal Hydrography boundaries offered by TIGER. Water bodies and rivers which are 50 million square meters or larger (mid to large sized water bodies) are erased from the tract level boundaries, as well as additional important features. For state and county boundaries, the water and coastlines are derived from the coastlines of the 2023 500k TIGER Cartographic Boundary Shapefiles. These are erased to more accurately portray the coastlines and Great Lakes. The original AWATER and ALAND fields are still available as attributes within the data table (units are square meters). The States layer contains 52 records - all US states, Washington D.C., and Puerto RicoCensus tracts with no population that occur in areas of water, such as oceans, are removed from this data service (Census Tracts beginning with 99).Percentages and derived counts, and associated margins of error, are calculated values (that can be identified by the "_calc_" stub in the field name), and abide by the specifications defined by the American Community Survey.Field alias names were created based on the Table Shells file available from the American Community Survey Summary File Documentation page.Negative values (e.g., -4444...) have been set to null, with the exception of -5555... which has been set to zero. These negative values exist in the raw API data to indicate the following situations:The margin of error column indicates that either no sample observations or too few sample observations were available to compute a standard error and thus the margin of error. A statistical test is not appropriate.Either no sample observations or too few sample observations were available to compute an estimate, or a ratio of medians cannot be calculated because one or both of the median estimates falls in the lowest interval or upper interval of an open-ended distribution.The median falls in the lowest interval of an open-ended distribution, or in the upper interval of an open-ended distribution. A statistical test is not appropriate.The estimate is controlled. A statistical test for sampling variability is not appropriate.The data for this geographic area cannot be displayed because the number of sample cases is too small.

Background: This ArcGIS Pro template is meant to be a starting point for your map book projects and is based on best practices by the USNG National Implementation Center (TUNIC) at Delta State University and is hosted by the NAPSG Foundation. This does not replace previous templates created in ArcMap, but is a new experimental approach to making map books. We will continue to refine this template and work with other organizations to make improvements over time. So please send us your feedback admin@publicsafetygis.org and comments below. Instructions: Download the zip file by clicking on the thumbnail or the Download button.Unzip the file to an appropriate location on your computer (C:\Users\YourUsername\Documents\ArcGIS\Projects is a common location for ArcGIS Pro Projects).Open the USNG Map book Project File (APRX).If the Task is not already open by default, navigate to Catalog > Tasks > and open 'Create a US National Grid Map Book' Follow the instructions! This task will have some automated processes and models that run in the background but you should pay close attention to the instructions so you also learn all of the steps. This will allow you to innovate and customize the template for your own use.FAQsWhat is US National Grid? The US National Grid (USNG) is a point and area reference system that provides for actionable location information in a uniform format. Its use helps achieve consistent situational awareness across all levels of government, disciplines, and threats & hazards – regardless of your role in an incident.One of the key resources NAPSG makes available to support emergency responders is a basic USNG situational awareness application. See the NAPSG Foundation and USNG Center websites for more information.What is an ArcGIS Pro Task? A task is a set of preconfigured steps that guide you and others through a workflow or business process. A task can be used to implement a best-practice workflow, improve the efficiency of a workflow, or create a series of interactive tutorial steps. See "What is a Task?" for more information.Do I need to be proficient in ArcGIS Pro to use this template? We feel that this is a good starting point if you have already taken the ArcGIS Pro QuickStart Tutorials. While the task will automate many steps, you will want to get comfortable with the map layouts and other new features in ArcGIS Pro.Is this template free? This resources is provided at no-cost, but also with no guarantees of quality assurance or support at this time. Can't I just use ArcMap? Ok - here you go. USNG 1:24K Map Template for ArcMapKnown Limitations and BugsZoom To: It appears there may be a bug or limitation with automatically zooming the map to the proper extent, so get comfortable with navigation or zoom to feature via the attribute table.FGDC Compliance: We are seeking feedback from experts in the field to make sure that this meets minimum requirements. At this point in time we do not claim to have any official endorsement of standardization. File Size: Highly detailed basemaps can really add up and contribute to your overall file size, especially over a large area / many pages. Consider making a simple "Basemap" of street centerlines and building footprints.We will do the best we can to address limitations and are very open to feedback!
