TwitterRTB Maps is a cloud-based electronic Atlas. We used ArGIS 10 for Desktop with Spatial Analysis Extension, ArcGIS 10 for Server on-premise, ArcGIS API for Javascript, IIS web services based on .NET, and ArcGIS Online combining data on the cloud with data and applications on our local server to develop an Atlas that brings together many of the map themes related to development of roots, tubers and banana crops. The Atlas is structured to allow our participating scientists to understand the distribution of the crops and observe the spatial distribution of many of the obstacles to production of these crops. The Atlas also includes an application to allow our partners to evaluate the importance of different factors when setting priorities for research and development. The application uses weighted overlay analysis within a multi-criteria decision analysis framework to rate the importance of factors when establishing geographic priorities for research and development.Datasets of crop distribution maps, agroecology maps, biotic and abiotic constraints to crop production, poverty maps and other demographic indicators are used as a key inputs to multi-objective criteria analysis.Further metadata/references can be found here: http://gisweb.ciat.cgiar.org/RTBmaps/DataAvailability_RTBMaps.htmlDISCLAIMER, ACKNOWLEDGMENTS AND PERMISSIONS:This service is provided by Roots, Tubers and Bananas CGIAR Research Program as a public service.

TwitterRetirement Notice: This item is in mature support as of July 2024 and will retire in December 2025. A new version of this item is available for your use. Esri recommends updating your maps and apps to use the new version.This web application enables the exploration of Arctic elevation based on the 2m resolution Arctic Digital Elevation Models (DEM) created by the Polar Geospatial Center. The app displays multiple different renderings as well as profiles of the data. In many areas the coverage is available from multiple dates and the app displays temporal profiles as well as computing the differences. The current datasets consisting of 2m DEMs, cover the Arctic from 60*N to the Pole and will gradually, and incrementally be replaced with better 2m versions as they are produced during 2018. The elevations are digital surface models photogrammetrically generated from stereo satellite imagery and have not been edited to create terrain heights. The current datasets are preliminary and are known to contain some errors and artifacts. As more control becomes available, the elevation values will be refined and adjusted. The original PGC datasets have been adjusted according to the PGC proposed correction parameters, to give WGS84 ellipsoidal heights, but available in this service also as orthometric heights computed using the EGM2008 geoid separation. Details on how the DEMs are generated and their use can be found in ArcticDEM datasets. The DEMs were created from DigitalGlobe, Inc., imagery and funded under National Science Foundation awards 1043681, 1559691, and 1542736.The app also provides access to the Arctic Landsat imagery that is updated daily and also served through ArcGIS Online.Quick access to server functions defined for the following elevation derivatives are provided:Hillshade – Hillshaded surface generated dynamically on elevation layer, with a solar azimuth of 315 degrees and solar altitude of 45 degreesMulti-Directional Hillshade – Multi-directional hillshaded surface generated dynamically on elevation layer, computing hillshade from 6 different directionsElevation Tinted Hillshade – Elevation tinted hillshade surface generated dynamically on elevation layerSlopeMap – A color visualization of Slope surface generated dynamically on elevation layer, where flat surfaces is gray, shallow slopes are yellow and steep slopes are orangeAspectMap - A color visualization of aspect generated dynamically on elevation layerContour – Dynamically generated contours with specified contour intervals and options for smoothing to create more cartographically pleasing contours.The Time tool enables access to a temporal time slider and temporal profile for a selected point. The Time tool is only accessible at larger zoom scales. The Identify tool enables access to elevation, slope and aspect values for the specified point as well as information on the source image and links to download the source data. From the app it is also possible to export defined areas of the DEMs. These can be exported in user defined projections and resolutions. The Bookmark tool link to pre-selected interesting locations.For more information on the underlying services see Arctic DEM layer.The application is written using Web AppBuilder for ArcGIS accessing imagery layers using the ArcGIS API for JavaScript.

TwitterThe Urban Observatory Compare app shows maps of the same subject for three cities, in a side by side comparison view. The app allows quick visual comparisons of the patterns at work in cities around the world.The app allows people to interact with rich datasets for each city. People can use the Urban Observatory web application to easily compare cities by using a simple web browser. As a user zooms in to one digital city map, other city maps will zoom in parallel, revealing similarities and differences in density and distribution. For instance, a person can simultaneously view traffic density for Abu Dhabi and Paris or simultaneously view vegetation in London and Tokyo.The Urban Observatory is brought to you by Richard Saul Wurman, creator of Technology/Entertainment/Design (TED) and 19.20.21; Jon Kamen of the Academy Award-, Emmy Award-, and Golden Globe Award-winning film company @radical.media; and Esri president Jack Dangermond. "A map is a pattern made understandable, and patterns must be compared to understand successes, failures, and opportunities of our global cities," says Wurman. "The Urban Observatory demonstrates this new paradigm, using cartographic language and constructive data display. People and cities can use maps as a common language," said Wurman. The application utilizes Esri's ArcGIS API for JavaScript. Once a web map is created, it is added to a group and tagged to indicated its city and subject information. Those tags are read by the application as it starts up in the browser.

TwitterThe Bicycle and E-Mobility Element of the STP will help create a safer, more bikeable Seattle. It provides a foundation for the City of Seattle to grow our investment in bicycling and e-mobility to achieve STP goals. The STP and the Bicycle and E-Mobility Element build on and supersede the 2014 Bicycle Master Plan (BMP). The bicycle and e-mobility network serves not only people riding traditional bicycles, but also people using adaptive bikes, cargo bicycles for both personal use and deliveries, trikes, scooters, skateboards, roller skates, wheelchairs or other wheeled mobility devices, and “e-mobility” devices, which refers to personal and shared electric-powered bicycles, scooters, and other electric-powered devices. It serves people bicycling and taking e-mobility to serve a variety of trip purposes, such as getting to work, school, transit, the gym or doctor's office, recreating, making urban goods deliveries, and more.The Bike+ network consists of bikeways suitable for people of all ages and abilities (AAA), including protected bike lanes, Neighborhood Greenways, Healthy Streets, and bike lanes where vehicle speeds and volumes are sufficiently low. The Bike+ network is envisioned to seamlessly integrate with the multi-use trail network, which provides connections through or on the edges of parks and opens spaces, where an off-street connection is preferred, or is more feasible than an on-street connection. Diagram of an umbrella titled "What is Bike+?" Underneath the umbrella, the following are bulleted - protected bike lane, bike lane (if vehicle speed and volumes low. See Table 4), neighborhood greenway, and healthy street. Many planned projects from the 2014 BMP have been implemented and are shown on the existing bicycle and e-mobility network map. The Bike+ network shows existing and proposed AAA bikeways on Seattle’s arterial and non-arterial (i.e., neighborhood streets) networks.Refresh Cycle: None, Static.

TwitterThe Vermont Fish and Wildlife Department's Natural Heritage Inventory (NHI) maintains a database of rare, threatened and endangered species and natural (plant) communities in Vermont. The Department is a member of the network of Natural Heritage Programs and Conservation Data Centres network that collaborates with NatureServe, which is the umbrella organization. The Element Occurrence (EO) records that form the core of the Natural Heritage Inventory database include information on the location, status, characteristics, numbers, condition, and distribution of elements of biological diversity using established Natural Heritage Methodology developed by NatureServe and The Nature Conservancy. An Element Occurrence (EO) is an area of land and/or water in which a species or natural community is, or was, present. An EO should have practical conservation value for the Element as evidenced by potential continued (or historical) presence and/or regular recurrence at a given location. For species Elements, the EO often corresponds with the local population, but when appropriate may be a portion of a population or a group of nearby populations (e.g., metapopulation). For community Elements, the EO may represent a stand or patch of a natural community, or a cluster of stands or patches of a natural community. Because they are defined on the basis of biological information, EOs may cross jurisdictional boundaries. An Element Occurrence record is a data management tool that has both spatial and tabular components including a mappable feature and its supporting database. EOs are typically represented by bounded, mapped areas of land and/or water or, at small scales, the centroid point of this area. EO records are most commonly created for current or historically known occurrences of natural communities or native species of conservation interest.

TwitterThere is a total of 32, 537 elements within the C2VSimFG model, which make-up the finite grid mesh of the model. The elements are subdivided into 21 subregions. Each element is composed of corresponding groundwater nodes within the model domain. The model domain area is 20, 742 square miles, and each element is roughly 407 acres. The boundaries of the model grid were developed using a set of control points at important locations of the model area. The finite element mesh was created using GIS and several Excel and FORTRAN utilities. The grid size was refined in areas of higher groundwater gradient and/or areas that are more critical from hydrogeological viewpoints. The grid lines are designed parallel to the streamflow direction, when possible, as well as the groundwater streamlines, to capture the surface and subsurface drainage patterns. Nine major faults in the Central Valley are represented by thin strip of elements of around 500 feet. The dataset excludes three geologic outcrops: Sutter Buttes, Kettleman Hills and Capay Valley Hills, which are areas not included in the Bulletin 118. The dataset is maintained by the Sustainable Groundwater Management Office, Modeling and Tools Support Section. The areas calculated for this data using the WGS 1984 Web Mercator projection may not reflect the actual areas used in the C2VSimFG model.

TwitterThese are county-owned projects that lie within incorporated cities. They help count towards the RHNA for the latest Housing Element. This layer was generated from parcels and aggregated to form one project boundary. Below is a description of this data from the Housing Element (specifically, page 207): While the County has land use jurisdiction in unincorporated Los Angeles County, it also owns land in cities within Los Angeles County. Through interjurisdictional partnerships, the County has used these sites to increase opportunities for interim and permanent housing. As a strategy to accommodate the RHNA, the County includes the capacity or planned development on County-owned sites in cities, where the County is the authority to approve planning entitlements and issue building permits pursuant to the County’s sovereign immunity, as established by California Government Code §53090 and 53091. Zoning and land use regulations for cities do not apply to these sites.
