Download .zipA potentiometric surface map is a contour map that represents the top of the ground water surface in an aquifer. The contour lines illustrate the potentiometric surface much like the contour lines of a topographic map represent a visual model of the ground surface. A potentiometric surface map is very similar to a water table map in that both show the horizontal direction and gradient of ground water flow.Contact Information:GIS Support, ODNR GIS ServicesOhio Department of Natural ResourcesDivision of Geological Survey2045 Morse Rd, Bldg I-2Columbus, OH, 43229Telephone: 614-265-6693Email: gis.support@dnr.ohio.gov

An extreme flood in 2016 caused widespread culvert blockages and road failures across northern Wisconsin, including extensive damage along steep tributaries and ravines in the Marengo River watershed. Along with the flooding, there were fluvial erosion hazards (FEH) associated with a large amount of erosion in headwater areas. Of special concern were FEHs associated with gullying, loss of wetland storage, and valley-side mass wasting. In 2020, a pilot study was begun to map and classify ephemeral and perennial streams and wetlands in terms of their susceptibility to fluvial erosion hazards. This study combines rapid geomorphic field assessments of river corridor erosion and coupled sediment and debris delivery with mapping geomorphic vulnerability zones in a Geographic Information System (GIS). The FEH assessment results will ultimately be used to identify and prioritize natural flood management projects related to stream and wetland restoration.

Download .zipThis coverage was extracted from the 1994 statewide land cover inventory of Ohio produced by Bruce R. Motsch and Gary M. Schaal of the Ohio Department of Natural Resources.

The land cover inventory for the State of Ohio was produced by the digital image processing of Landsat Thematic Mapper Data. The Thematic Mapper is a multi-spectral scanner that collects electromagnetic radiation reflected from the earth's surface in the visible, near infrared and mid-infrared wavelength bands. The resolution of the Thematic Mapper data is a 30 meter by 30 meter cell. The computer analysis of the data isolates unique spectral classes that relate to land cover characteristics.

The land cover inventory was produced from Thematic Mapper data acquired in September and October 1994. The data was classified into the general land cover categories of urban, agriculture/open urban areas, shrub/scrub, wooded, open water, non-forested wetlands and barren.

The land cover information reflects the conditions of the satellite data during the specific year and season the data was acquired. The Thematic Mapper data was processed using ERDAS image processing software. The data was originally created in raster format and georeferenced to Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) zone 17 coordinates NAD27. The data can be combined with other georeferenced digital data layers.

The data is also available in its original ERDAS image format.

The CAUV's of land are computed using soil characteristics and production information contained in Bulletin 685, Cooperative Extension Service, The Ohio State University, dated July 1983, and entitled "Ohio Soils with Yield Data and Productivity Index." CAUV figures were obtained from the land tables for tax years 1984, 1985, and 1986, Tax Equalization Division, Ohio Department of Taxation, 1983.

Soils used in this analysis were digitized from the paper original soil survey sheets. These sheets were taped together to form an area covering each of the USGS 7.5 minute quadrangle maps in the county. The areas for each quadrangle were then digitized using run-length encoding technique sampling along horizontal lines which represented the midline of cells with a height of 250 feet. The measurement increment along these lines was one decafoot (10 feet). The quadrangle files were then merged into a county file which has subsequently been converted to Arc/Info format.

Medford-Ashland Air Quality Maintenance Area (AQMA). Under the 1990 Clean Air Act Amendments, the Rogue Valley (Jackson County, Ashland, Phoenix, Talent, Medford, Jacksonville, Central Point, White City, and Eagle Point) became a nonattainment area for particulate matter (PM10). These communities shared a common airshed, known as the Medford-Ashland Air Quality Maintenance Area (AQMA). During the 1980s, particulate pollution in the AQMA reached some of the highest levels in the nation and violated the federal air quality health standards also known as National Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS). This violation meant two things: 1. DEQ needed to write a plan to bring the Medford-Ashland AQMA back into compliance with the standard; and 2. Added restrictions would be placed on Rogue Valley communities to limit new and expanding industries and significant transportation projects would need to be reviewed to determine their compliance with the plan. The plan and rules addressing industry and residential woodstove curtailment were prepared by DEQ in 1991. The Environmental Quality Commission (EQC) adopted the plan and rules shortly thereafter. All the emission reduction measures adopted by the EQC were successfully implemented and air quality monitoring in the AQMA demonstrated that the PM10 standards were met in 1992. The Medford-Ashland AQMA currently meets the PM10 standards and EPA’s tougher new standards for fine particulate (PM2.5). On December 10, 2004, the EQC approved an updated PM10 attainment and maintenance plans. This plan continues all of the PM10 strategies from the 1991 attainment plan and continues the strictest requirements for managing emissions growth from future new and expanding major industry under the New Source Review program. EPA approved the plans in 2005. On 3-25-10, the Metes and Bounds legal description was reviewed to verify the county's records, and the AQMA was still accurate based on that definition.

Download .zipThis map was derived from the Ashland County Soil Survey using the Universal Soil Loss Equation to calculate estimated erosion rates from soil with no till management systems. Land use data from 1982 aerial photography was utilized in the analysis to determine land not suitable for cultivation. a no till management system assumes a no till corn-no till corn-no till soybean-small grain-meadow-meadow rotation. Soil erosion rates were then compared to "T", the tolerable soil loss rate for the soil type.

Factors combined by the universal soil loss equation include: rainfall factor, ersosion factor "K", and slope length and steepness factor.
