    Description

    The files linked to this reference are the geospatial data created as part of the completion of the baseline vegetation inventory project for the NPS park unit. Current format is ArcGIS file geodatabase but older formats may exist as shapefiles. GIS Database 2002-2005: Project Size = 1,898 acres Fort Larned National Historic Site (including the Rut Site) = 705 acres 16 Map Classes 11 Vegetated 5 Non-vegetated Minimum Mapping Unit = ½ hectare is the program standard but this was modified at FOLS to ¼ acre. Total Size = 229 Polygons Average Polygon Size = 8.3 acres Overall Thematic Accuracy = 92% To produce the digital map, a combination of 1:8,500-scale (0.75 meter pixels) color infrared digital ortho-imagery acquired on October 26, 2005 by the Kansas Applied Remote Sensing Program and 1:12,000-scale true color ortho-rectified imagery acquired in 2005 by the U.S. Department of Agriculture - Farm Service Agency’s Aerial Photography Field Office, and all of the GPS referenced ground data were used to interpret the complex patterns of vegetation and land-use. In the end, 16 map units (11 vegetated and 5 land-use) were developed and directly cross-walked or matched to corresponding plant associations and land-use classes. All of the interpreted and remotely sensed data were converted to Geographic Information System (GIS) databases using ArcGIS© software. Draft maps were printed, field tested, reviewed and revised. One hundred and six accuracy assessment (AA) data points were collected in 2006 by KNSHI and used to determine the map’s accuracy. After final revisions, the accuracy assessment revealed an overall thematic accuracy of 92%.

    Description

    Maps are often animated to help users make comparisons and comprehend trends. However, large and complex differences between sequential maps can inhibit users from doing so. This paper proposes a morphing technique to highlight trends without manual intervention. Changes between sequential maps are considered as the diffusion processes of expanding classes, with these processes simulated by cellular automata. A skeleton extraction technique is introduced to handle special cases. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed morphing technique can reveal obvious trends between dramatically changed maps. The potential application of the proposed morphing technique in sequential spatial data (e.g. remote-sensing images) is discussed.

    Description

    Soil Data Viewer is a tool built as an extension to ArcMap that allows a user to create soil-based thematic maps. The application can also be run independently of ArcMap, but output is then limited to a tabular report. The soil survey attribute database associated with the spatial soil map is a complicated database with more than 50 tables. Soil Data Viewer provides users access to soil interpretations and soil properties while shielding them from the complexity of the soil database. Each soil map unit, typically a set of polygons, may contain multiple soil components that have different use and management. Soil Data Viewer makes it easy to compute a single value for a map unit and display results, relieving the user from the burden of querying the database, processing the data and linking to the spatial map. Soil Data Viewer contains processing rules to enforce appropriate use of the data. This provides the user with a tool for quick geospatial analysis of soil data for use in resource assessment and management. Resources in this dataset:Resource Title: Soil Data Viewer.

    Description

    ABSTRACT Owing to the exponential growth of the human population and problems related to food supply, research focused on finding the most suitable approach to manage and geographically explore the environment using sustainable technologies stand out. The present study aims to produce a consistent interpolation of historical series of enthalpy (H) resulting in a thematic map of enthalpy, using the spline method as a kriging option in areas with few sampling points. The thematic map considers thermal comfort conditions to produce broiler chickens, that could be used as a management tool to reduce power consumption due to the cooling process of the facilities. It was verified that spline is an efficient method to create a suitable thematic maps representations of areas presenting a few sampled units. The geographical representation of enthalpy allowed the evaluation of the environments, concluding that the state of Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil is inadequate for broiler chickens production without suitable thermal cooling systems. Evidence suggests introduction of aviculture in areas still unexplored, e.g., Chapadão do Sul and Sete Quedas.

    Description

    The feature class MO_scostamenti_poly_8 represents the deviations, polygonal elements acquired from the map of deviations and incompatibilities in scale 1:25 000. The maps PTPAAV (Territorial Environmental Country Plan of Area Vasta) are a series of thematic maps drawn up since 1989 and finished and approved at the end of November 1991, are divided into territorial areas for a total of 8 areas identified on the regional territory. The work was carried out by several groups of technicians, a coordination group which established by circulars the standards to be used for the drafting of plans ranging from the thickness of the graph tip to the type of retino and the nuances to be used, and 8 design groups one for each area, which have created the maps trying to standardise spatial information as much as possible. The paperwork of this work was delivered to us in 2008 by the Environmental Heritage Office of the Molise Region. The latter already had scans of some thematic cards related to some areas, the missing ones and in the case of scans not found suitable for georeference, have been scanned. The mapping basis used by the working groups for the creation of PTPAAV maps was the IGM on a scale of 1:25,000.

There is a high demand for accurate and timely land cover information that affects the accuracy of all subsequent applications. The availability of Google Earth Engine (GEE), which derives temporal aggregation methods from time-series images (i.e., the use of metrics such as mean or median), has also enabled optimization of computation time, such as managing large amounts of data to obtain more accurate results. Our objective was to obtain a land cover map for the northwest of the province of Córdoba, Argentina. The study was carried out in rural communities that belong to the departments of Cruz del Eje and Ischilín, northwest of Córdoba, and have different degrees of intervention in the land cover. Sentinel 2 Level 2A images were acquired for the study area. Images available from January 1, 2018, to December 31, 2020, were sampled. To create a thematic map, the median value was calculated for the sample of images from the selected time interval. Finally, the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) was calculated and added to the total bands of the median image. Training polygons were placed there considering the visual features in the median image. The Random Forest algorithm was used as the classification method. To verify the quality of the classified map, a list of 97,753 verification pixels was obtained. In addition, a confusion matrix was created to collect the conflicts that arise between categories, and the precision and kappa coefficient was calculated to define the quality of the map obtained. Image acquisition, preprocessing, and analysis were performed on the Google Earth Engine platform. Thematic maps with eight classes were obtained, with a total area of 719880 ha. The confusion matrix showed an overall precision of 99.26% and a corrected kappa index of 0.99, the classes were correctly classified by the algorithm.

    Description

    This data set is a digital soil survey and generally is the most detailed level of soil geographic data developed by the National Cooperative Soil Survey. The information was prepared by digitizing maps, by compiling information onto a planimetric correct base and digitizing, or by revising digitized maps using remotely sensed and other information. This data set consists of georeferenced digital map data and computerized attribute data. The map data are in a soil survey area extent format and include a detailed, field verified inventory of soils and nonsoil areas that normally occur in a repeatable pattern on the landscape and that can be cartographically shown at the scale mapped. A special soil features layer (point and line features) is optional. This layer displays the location of features too small to delineate at the mapping scale, but they are large enough and contrasting enough to significantly influence use and management. The soil map units are linked to attributes in the National Soil Information System relational database, which gives the proportionate extent of the component soils and their properties. Note: All Minnesota SSURGO data sets are now in Version 2 format. This format is compatible with NRCS's Soil Data Viewer, a free extension for ArcView 3.x that allows users to more easily create soil-based thematic maps. - For more information about Soil Data Viewer, see http://www.itc.nrcs.usda.gov/soildataviewer/ Also note: This metadata record was created by the Minnesota Land Management Information Center to serve as a generic record for all SSURGO data sets within Minnesota. See the individual county metadata records created by NRCS for county-specific information; these records are included in the data set download files.

    Description

    Australian Mineral Blocks (2014) - Aligned with the current Australian Maritime Boundary Dataset (AMB2014).

    ESRI Geodatabase.

    The dataset was created by Geoscience Australia using the framework described in Section 17 of the Offshore Minerals Act 1994.

    The international, scheduled areas and coastal waters used in this dataset are those found in the current Australian Maritime Boundary Dataset 2014 (AMB2014).

    The dataset is comprised of both polygons and points created to very high precision, accurate to within millimetres.

    The blocks have been cut by Australia's international boundaries, the scheduled areas and the coastal waters. Each block is assigned a polygon, including partial blocks. All blocks are titled with their block ID, and a list of vertices that make up the blocks. Each vertex of the dataset is also replicated as a discrete point in the points dataset.

    The design of the dataset allows for the exact location of every vertex to be known to millimetre precision. The corner coordinates of blocks are now defined to a high precision, and can be found by querying the appropriate point.

    The blocks are attributed with fields containing information on: Block ID Parent 1 Million Mapsheet Offshore Area Epoch of the boundaries used to cut the data AMB2014 Datum Origin of the mapsheet in AGD66 The position of all vertices in the block The number of vertices in the block The area of the block in acres The area of the block in hectares The calculation used to find the area of the blocks is estimated to be precise to better than 1%. This is considered to be sufficient as under the permit and licensing arrangements in the Offshore Minerals Act, the area of a block has no relevance. Therefore the area figure is provided solely for reference.

    From gridded National Soil Survey Geographic Database (gNATSGO). Used Soil Data Development Toolbox > gSSURGO Mapping Toolset > Create Soil Map Tool, Exported Data Layer to TIFF, and Used Spatial Analyst > Reclass > Lookup Tool to create this data layer and display the HYDROLGRP_. Follow instructions in "How to Create an On-Demand Soil Property or Interpretation Grid from gNATSGO". Shows sSSURGO data for California. A - sand, loamy sand, sandy loam B - loam, silt, loam or silt C - sandy clay loam D - clay loam, silty clay loam, sandy clay, silty clay, or clay The gridded National Soil Survey Geographic Database (gNATSGO) is a USDA-NRCS Soil & Plant Science Division (SPSD) composite database that provides complete coverage of the best available soils information for all areas of the United States and Island Territories. It was created by combining data from the Soil Survey Geographic Database (SSURGO), State Soil Geographic Database (STATSGO2), and Raster Soil Survey Databases (RSS) into a single seamless ESRI file geodatabase. The state-wide gNATSGO databases contain a 10-meter raster of the soil map units and 70 related tables of soil properties and interpretations. It is designed to work with the SPSD gSSURGO ArcTools. Users can create full coverage thematic maps and grids of soil properties and interpretations for large geographic areas, such as the extent of a State or the conterminous United States. Please note that for the CONUS database, only a 30 meter raster is included. SSURGO is the SPSD flagship soils database that has over 100 years of field-validated detailed soil mapping data. SSURGO contains soils information for more than 90 percent of the United States and island territories, but unmapped land remains. Click here for the current completion status of SSURGO mapping. STATSGO2 is a general soil map that has soils data for all of the United States and island territories, but the data is not as detailed as the SSURGO data. The Raster Soil Surveys (RSSs) are the next generation soil survey databases developed using advanced digital soil mapping methods. https://www.nrcs.usda.gov/wps/portal/nrcs/detail/soils/survey/geo/?cid=nrcseprd1464625) Use the Create A Soil Map ArcTool from the gSSURGO Mapping Toolset in the Soil Data Development Toolbox to make a TIFF data layer (Instructions: https://www.nrcs.usda.gov/wps/portal/nrcs/detail/soils/survey/geo/?cid=nrcseprd1464625#grid). Make a Hydrological Soils Group Map, and display it using the Hydrolgrp_ attribute. NotesThe SPSD refreshes all published soil databases annually. gNATSGO will be included in the refresh cycle, which will provide a new up-to-date version of the database each year. gNATSGO is an ESRI file geodatabase. The soil map units are delivered only as a 10-meter raster version and are uniquely identified by the mukey, which is included in the attribute table. No vectorized version of the soil map units is included in gNATSGO. The database has 70 tables that contain soil attributes, and relationship classes are built into the database to define relationships among tables. The raster can be joined to the Mapunit and Muaggatt tables in the MUKEY field. The database contains a feature class called SAPOLYGON. The “source” field in this feature class indicates whether the data was derived from SSURGO, STATSGO2, or an RSS. A gNATSGO database was created for the conterminous United States and for each state or island territory that does not have complete coverage in SSURGO or has a published RSS. If you encounter an ArcMap error when working with a gNATSGO dataset that reads “The number of unique values exceeds the limit” try increasing the maximum number of unique values to render in your Raster ArcMap Options.

    Description

    The files linked to this reference are the geospatial data created as part of the completion of the baseline vegetation inventory project for the NPS park unit. Current format is ArcGIS file geodatabase but older formats may exist as shapefiles. Vegetation map development for KNRI has somewhat different protocols than for other Parks. Normally photointerpretation is preceded by extensive field work which includes plot selection and vegetation sampling using detailed descriptions which are subsequently analyzed using ordination and other statistical techniques. The data are then summarized and association descriptions are assigned to each plot or, if the association is previously unrecognized, then a new association name is assigned. Subsequently, the plots locations are compared to its photographic signature and a photointerpretive key is developed. Given the very small size of KNRI and the extensive historical impact and alteration of the vegetation a simplified technique was used. NatureServe developed a list of potential vegetation types prior to any field work. This list was referenced during the field visit and modified after comparison of site characteristics and vegetation descriptions. Aerial photographs were viewed prior to the field visit and areas of like signature were differentiated. All vegetation and land-use information was then transferred to a GIS database using the latest grayscale USGS digital orthophoto quarter-quads as the base map and using a combination of on-screen digitizing and scanning techniques. Overall thematic map accuracy for the Park is considered 100% as all interpreted polygons received a filed visit for verification.

    Description

    The feature class MO_vincolo_usi_civici_poly_2 represents the areas subject to civic use constraint, elements acquired from the constraint map on a scale of 1:25 000. The maps PTPAAV (Territorial Environmental Country Plan of Area Vasta) are a series of thematic maps drawn up since 1989 and finished and approved at the end of November 1991, are divided into territorial areas for a total of 8 areas identified on the regional territory. The work was carried out by several groups of technicians, a coordination group which established by circulars the standards to be used for the drafting of plans ranging from the thickness of the graph tip to the type of retino and the nuances to be used, and 8 design groups one for each area, which have created the maps trying to standardise spatial information as much as possible. The paperwork of this work was delivered to us in 2008 by the Environmental Heritage Office of the Molise Region. The latter already had scans of some thematic cards related to some areas, the missing ones and in the case of scans not found suitable for georeference, have been scanned. The mapping basis used by the working groups for the creation of PTPAAV maps was the IGM on a scale of 1:25,000.

Description

The files linked to this reference are the geospatial data created as part of the completion of the baseline vegetation inventory project for the NPS park unit. Current format is ArcGIS file geodatabase but older formats may exist as shapefiles. GIS Database 2002-2005: Project Size = 1,898 acres Fort Larned National Historic Site (including the Rut Site) = 705 acres 16 Map Classes 11 Vegetated 5 Non-vegetated Minimum Mapping Unit = ½ hectare is the program standard but this was modified at FOLS to ¼ acre. Total Size = 229 Polygons Average Polygon Size = 8.3 acres Overall Thematic Accuracy = 92% To produce the digital map, a combination of 1:8,500-scale (0.75 meter pixels) color infrared digital ortho-imagery acquired on October 26, 2005 by the Kansas Applied Remote Sensing Program and 1:12,000-scale true color ortho-rectified imagery acquired in 2005 by the U.S. Department of Agriculture - Farm Service Agency’s Aerial Photography Field Office, and all of the GPS referenced ground data were used to interpret the complex patterns of vegetation and land-use. In the end, 16 map units (11 vegetated and 5 land-use) were developed and directly cross-walked or matched to corresponding plant associations and land-use classes. All of the interpreted and remotely sensed data were converted to Geographic Information System (GIS) databases using ArcGIS© software. Draft maps were printed, field tested, reviewed and revised. One hundred and six accuracy assessment (AA) data points were collected in 2006 by KNSHI and used to determine the map’s accuracy. After final revisions, the accuracy assessment revealed an overall thematic accuracy of 92%.
