Historical imagery was obtained from University of Florida’s historical Imagery site, “Aerial Photography: Florida”, the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) Aerial Photo Lookup System, or from the FDEP district offices. Images downloaded from UF were saved locally and georeferenced by GIS team members, whereas the imagery received from the district offices were georeferenced by District staff. It is understood that these "pre-georeferenced" tiles were georeferenced within ArcMap by various staff from the District offices. The following applies to the imagery georeferenced in-office by the Division of Water Resource Management (DWRM):The georeferencing was completed in either ArcMap 10.3.1 or ArcGIS Pro. The following standards were held for the georeferencing process: the minimum number of control points was 10 points. The RMS value was kept at or below 5.0 for all tiles georeferenced in 1st Order Polynomial, and 2.0 for those georeferenced in 2nd Order Polynomial (where 1st Order was not possible). The maximum individual residual was at or under twice the RMS. Again, these were the standards, but the accuracy is not guaranteed. To QC for human error, once all counties for the given decade were georeferenced a comparison task was completed. This QC emphasized that this data is only a visual aid in that distances can be off 50 meters or more in some areas. These are mostly areas where there were limited reference features to georectify the original images. The smallest distance found was under 10 meters.

This is a dataset of georeferenced 1917 Sanborn Fire Insurance maps of Knoxville TN, including individual sheets, a sheet index, a seamless mosaic, and a map key. Digital images of the data sheets were downloaded from the University of Tennessee Library https://digital.lib.utk.edu/collections/sanbornmapcollection. Multi-part sheets were clipped into pieces for georeferencing. Chris DeRolph georeferenced each sheet and piece, where possible. There were a few outlying images that were unable to be georeferenced due to lack of recognizable common features between the sheets and reference maps/imagery in the sheet vicinity. The sheet index shapefile includes a field with a hyperlink to the UTK library download page for the sheet. The seamless mosaic was created using the Mosaic to New Raster tool in ArcGIS Pro with all georeferenced sheets/pieces as inputs and the Minimum Mosaic Operator. No attempt was made prior to the mosaicking process to remove sheet numbers, scale bars, north arrows, overlapping labels/annotation, etc. Viewing individual sheets will provide the cleanest look at an area, while the seamless mosaic provides the most comprehensive view of the city at the time the maps were created.

This two-part video tutorial provides a comprehensive, step-by-step guide to creating and georeferencing a 3D textured model of a historic building using Reality Capture. It covers the entire process, from photo alignment and importing GPS data from a text file to identifying and using ground control points (GCPs) to improve the alignment of model components and accurately georeference the point cloud. The tutorial also demonstrates model creation, cleaning, simplification, and texturing. In the final steps, the model is exported and imported into ArcGIS Pro for geographic analysis and visualization.

Please note that this dataset is not an official City of Toronto land use dataset. It was created for personal and academic use using City of Toronto Land Use Maps (2019) found on the City of Toronto Official Plan website at https://www.toronto.ca/city-government/planning-development/official-plan-guidelines/official-plan/official-plan-maps-copy, along with the City of Toronto parcel fabric (Property Boundaries) found at https://open.toronto.ca/dataset/property-boundaries/ and Statistics Canada Census Dissemination Blocks level boundary files (2016).

Using Deep learning Objects, the images were re-classified into useful consistent colours. Deep Learning Objects and Training The resulting mosaic was then prepared for reclassification using the Label Objects for Deep Learning tool in ArcGIS Pro. A training sample, "LandUseTrainingSamples20211220", was created in the geodatabase for all land use types as follows: Neighbourhoods Insitutional Natural Areas Core Employment Areas Mixed Use Areas Apartment Neighbourhoods Parks Roads Utility Corridors Other Open Spaces General Employment Areas Regeneration Areas Lettering (not a land use type, but an image colour (black), used to label streets). By identifying the letters, it then made the reclassification and vectorization results easier to clean up of unnecessary clutter caused by the labels of streets. Reclassification Once the training samples were created and saved, the raster was then reclassified using the Image Classification Wizard tool in ArcGIS Pro, using the Support...

Introduction

Geographical scale, in terms of spatial extent, provide a basis for other branches of science. This dataset contains newly proposed geographical and geological GIS boundaries for the Pan-Tibetan Highlands (new proposed name for the High Mountain Asia), based on geological and geomorphological features. This region comprises the Tibetan Plateau and three adjacent mountain regions: the Himalaya, Hengduan Mountains and Mountains of Central Asia, and boundaries are also given for each subregion individually. The dataset will benefit quantitative spatial analysis by providing a well-defined geographical scale for other branches of research, aiding cross-disciplinary comparisons and synthesis, as well as reproducibility of research results.

The dataset comprises three subsets, and we provide three data formats (.shp, .geojson and .kmz) for each of them. Shapefile format (.shp) was generated in ArcGIS Pro, and the other two were converted from shapefile, the conversion steps refer to 'Data processing' section below. The following is a description of the three subsets:

(1) The GIS boundaries we newly defined of the Pan-Tibetan Highlands and its four constituent sub-regions, i.e. the Tibetan Plateau, Himalaya, Hengduan Mountains and the Mountains of Central Asia. All files are placed in the "Pan-Tibetan Highlands (Liu et al._2022)" folder.

(2) We also provide GIS boundaries that were applied by other studies (cited in Fig. 3 of our work) in the folder "Tibetan Plateau and adjacent mountains (Others’ definitions)". If these data is used, please cite the relevent paper accrodingly. In addition, it is worthy to note that the GIS boundaries of Hengduan Mountains (Li et al. 1987a) and Mountains of Central Asia (Foggin et al. 2021) were newly generated in our study using Georeferencing toolbox in ArcGIS Pro.

(3) Geological assemblages and characters of the Pan-Tibetan Highlands, including Cratons and micro-continental blocks (Fig. S1), plus sutures, faults and thrusts (Fig. 4), are placed in the "Pan-Tibetan Highlands (geological files)" folder.

Note: High Mountain Asia: The name ‘High Mountain Asia’ is the only direct synonym of Pan-Tibetan Highlands, but this term is both grammatically awkward and somewhat misleading, and hence the term ‘Pan-Tibetan Highlands’ is here proposed to replace it. Third Pole: The first use of the term ‘Third Pole’ was in reference to the Himalaya by Kurz & Montandon (1933), but the usage was subsequently broadened to the Tibetan Plateau or the whole of the Pan-Tibetan Highlands. The mainstream scientific literature refer the ‘Third Pole’ to the region encompassing the Tibetan Plateau, Himalaya, Hengduan Mountains, Karakoram, Hindu Kush and Pamir. This definition was surpported by geological strcture (Main Pamir Thrust) in the western part, and generally overlaps with the ‘Tibetan Plateau’ sensu lato defined by some previous studies, but is more specific.

More discussion and reference about names please refer to the paper. The figures (Figs. 3, 4, S1) mentioned above were attached in the end of this document.

Data processing

We provide three data formats. Conversion of shapefile data to kmz format was done in ArcGIS Pro. We used the Layer to KML tool in Conversion Toolbox to convert the shapefile to kmz format. Conversion of shapefile data to geojson format was done in R. We read the data using the shapefile function of the raster package, and wrote it as a geojson file using the geojson_write function in the geojsonio package.

Dataset description: This repository contains data pertaining to the manuscript "Mawrth Vallis, Mars, classified using the NOAH-H deep-learning terrain classification system." submitted to Journal of Maps. NOAH-H Mosaics: Mawrth_Vallis_NOAHH_Mosaic_DC_IG_25cm4bit_20230121_reclass.zip This folder contain mosaics of terrain classifications for Mawrth Vallis, Mars, made by the Novelty or Anomaly Hunter - HiRISE (NOAH-H) deep learning convolutional neural network developed for the European Space Agency (ESA) by SCISYS Ltd. In coordination with the Open University Planetary Environments Group. These folders contain the NOAH-H mosaics, as well as ancillary files needed to display the NOAH-H products in geographic information software (GIS). Included are two large raster datasets, containing the NOAH-H classification for the entire study area. One uses the 14 descriptive classes of the terrain, and the other with the five interpretative groups (Barrett et al., 2022). · Mawrth_Vallis_NOAHH_Mosaic_DC_25cm4bit_20230121_reclass.tif Contains the full 14 class “Descriptive Classes” (DC) dataset, reclassified so that pixel values reflect the original NOAH-H ontology, and not the priority rankings described in Wright et al., (2022) and Barrett et al., (2022b). It is accompanied by all auxiliary files required to view the data in GIS. · Mawrth_Vallis_NOAHH_Mosaic_IG_25cm4bit_20230121_reclass.tif Contains the 5 class “Interpretive Groups” (IG) dataset, reclassified so that pixel values reflect the original NOAH-H ontology, and not the priority rankings described in Wright et al., (2022) and Barrett et al., (2022b). It is accompanied by all auxiliary files required to view the data in GIS. Symbology layer files: NOAH-H_Symbology.zip This folder contains GIS layer file and colour map files for both the Descriptive Classes (DC) and interpretive Groups (IG) versions of the classification. These can be applied to the data using the symbology options in GIS. Georeferencing Control points: Mawrth_Vallis_Final_Control_Points.zip This file contains the control points used to georeferenced the 26 individual HiRISE images which make up the mosaic. These allow publicly available HiRISE images to be aligned to the terrain in Mawrth Vallis, and thus the NOAH-H Mosaic. Twenty-six 25 cm/pixel HiRISE images of Mawrth Vallis were used as input for NOAH-H. These are:

ESP_035804_2025_RED NOAH-H produced corresponding 25 cm/pixel rasters where each pixel is assigned a terrain class based on the corresponding pixels in the input HiRISE image. To mosaic the NOAH-H rasters together, first the input HiRISE images were georeferenced to the HRSC basemap (HMC_11E10_co5) tile, using CTX images as an intermediate step. High order (spline, in ArcGIS Pro 3.0) transformations were used to make the HiRISE images georeference closely onto the target layers. Once the HiRISE images were georeferenced, the same control points and transformations were applied to the corresponding NOAH-H rasters. To mosaic the georeferenced NOAH-H rasters the pixel values for the classes needed to be changed so that more confidently identified, and more dangerous, classes made it into the mosaic (see dataset manuscript for details. To produce a HiRISE layer which fits the NOAH-H classification, download one of the listed HiRISE images from https://www.uahirise.org/, Select the corresponding control point file from this archive and apply a spline transformation through the GIS georeferencing toolbar. Manually Mapped Aeolian Bedforms: Mawrth_Manual_TARs.zip The manually mapped data was produced by Fawdon, independently of the NOAH-H project, as an assessment of “Aeolian Hazard” at Mawrth Vallis. This was done to inform the ExoMars landing site selection process. This file contains two GIS shape files, containing the manually mapped bedforms for both the entire mapping area, and the HiRISE image ESP_046459_2025_RED where the two datasets were compared on a pixel scale. The full manual map is offset slightly from the NOAH-H, since it was digitised from bespoke HiRISE orthomosaics, rather than from the publicly available HiRISE Red band images. It is suitable for comparison to the NOAH-H data with 100m-1km aggregation as in figure 8 of the associated paper. It is not suitable for pixel scale comparison. The map of ESP_046459_2025_RED was manually georeferenced to the NOAH-H mosaic, allowing for direct pixel to pixel comparisons, as presented in figure 6 of the associated paper. Two GIS shape files are included: · Mawrth_Manual_TARs_ESP_046459_2025.shp · Mawrth_Manual_TARs_all.shp Containing the high fidelity data for ESP_046459_2025, and the medium fidelity data for the entire area respectively. The are accompanied by ancillary files needed to view them in GIS. Gridded Density Statistics This dataset contains gridded density maps of Transverse Aeolian Ridges and Boulders, as classified by the Novelty or Anomaly Hunter – HiRISE (NOAH-H). The area covered is the runner up candidate ExoMars landing site in Mawrth Vallis, Mars. These are the data shown in figures; 7, 8, and S1. Files are presented for every classified ripple and boulder class, as well as for thematic groups. These are presented as .shp GIS shapefiles, along with all auxiliary files required to view them in GIS. Gridded Density stats are available in two zip folders, one for NOAH-H predicted density, and one for manually mapped density. NOAH-H Predicted Density: Mawrth_NOAHH_1km_Grid_TAR_Boulder_Density.zip Individual classes are found in the files: · Mawrth_NOAHH_1km_Grid_8TARs.shp · Mawrth_NOAHH_1km_Grid_9TARs.shp · Mawrth_NOAHH_1km_Grid_11TARs.shp · Mawrth_NOAHH_1km_Grid_12TARs.shp · Mawrth_NOAHH_1km_Grid_13TARs.shp · Mawrth_NOAHH_1km_Grid_Boulders.shp Where the text following Grid denotes the NOAH-H classes represented, and the landform classified. E.g. 8TARs = NOAH-H TAR class 8. The following thematic groups are also included: · Mawrth_NOAHH_1km_Grid_8_11continuousTARs.shp · Mawrth_NOAHH_1km_Grid_12_13discontinuousTARs · Mawrth_NOAHH_1km_Grid_8_10largeTARs.shp · Mawrth_NOAHH_1km_Grid_11_13smallTARs.shp · Mawrth_NOAHH_1km_Grid_8_13AllTARs.shp When the numbers denote the range of NOAH-H classes which were aggregated to produce the map, followed by a description of the thematic group: “continuous”, “discontinuous”, “large”, “small”, “all”. Manually Mapped Density Plots: Mawrth_Manual_1km_Grid.zip These GIS shapefiles have the same format as the NOAH-H classified ones. Three datasets are presented for all TARs (“_allTARs”), Continuous TARs (“_con”) and Discontinuous TARs (“_dis”) · Mawrth_Manual_1km_Grid_AllTARs.shp · Mawrth_Manual_1km_Grid_Con.shp · Mawrth_Manual_1km_Grid_Dis.shp Related public datasets: The HiRISE images discussed in this work are publicly available from https://www.uahirise.org/. and are credited to NASA/JPL/University of Arizona.

This scanned historical map from the University of Idaho Experimental Forest archives shows boundaries of areas of principal experimental and demonstration areas, areas having especially high recreational value, potential fishing streams, public camp grounds, and the boundary of a proposed game reserve on Moscow Mountain and vicinity. The printed paper map is dated April 23, 1934.This map was scanned on a Contex HD 5450 wide format scanner at 300 dpi with 24-bit color. The original file was scanned on April 7, 2023 and created as an uncompressed TIF file. Subsequently, a 300 dpi JPEG file was created from the archival TIF file using Adobe Photoshop 2023. The JPG file was rotated, de-skewed, and cropped to make the documents as usable as possible.The JPG file was georeferenced using georeferencing tools in ArcGIS Pro 3.0.1 in June, 2023. Twenty-two (22) control points were placed to align the image to the NAD 1983 UTM Zone 11N coordinate system. The public land survey system was used as the target layer. A first order polynomial transformation (affine) was selected to transform the image without deforming it and the georeferencing information was saved with the image. Total RMS error was less than 100.

The dataset presented here, a historical coregonine spawning database, or CORHIST for short, is the result of several years of coordinated research in archives, libraries, and field stations, to track down evidence of spawning locations for the Coregoninae sub-family of ciscoes and whitefishes in the Great Lakes of North America and their tributaries. Our objective was to accurately identify location information to coordinates and add all associated data and metadata to a database built specifically for these types of records (a database capable of storing historical, geospatial, and biological data). Data for a total of 11 accepted species of coregonines are included in this dataset. Spawning or nursery habitat designations were assigned based on a wide-range of evidence from original sources, including descriptions of physiology, ontogeny, and behaviors, interviews, first-hand and Indigenous Ecological Knowledge, and by our own examination of museum specimens. Georeferencing was completed using evidence from original records, including navigational information such as dead reckonings, landmarks like islands, lighthouses, reefs, and river mouths, and by using depth and substrate descriptions. Occasionally, supplemental sources including various historical maps and/or published bathymetry and substrate layers were used to assist in georeferencing points. Data points were summarized and quality-checked using ArcMap 10.8 and ArcGIS Pro (datum: WGS84). Reference tables are also included with this dataset.

The printed paper map is dated April 23, 1934.This map was scanned on a Contex HD 5450 wide format scanner at 300 dpi with 24-bit color. The original file was scanned on April 7, 2023 and created as an uncompressed TIF file. Subsequently, a 300 dpi JPEG file was created from the archival TIF file using Adobe Photoshop 2023. The JPG file was rotated, de-skewed, and cropped to make the documents as usable as possible.The JPG file was georeferenced using georeferencing tools in ArcGIS Pro 3.0.1 in June, 2023. Twenty-two (22) control points were placed to align the image to the NAD 1983 UTM Zone 11N coordinate system. The public land survey system was used as the target layer. A first order polynomial transformation (affine) was selected to transform the image without deforming it and the georeferencing information was saved with the image. Total RMS error was less than 100.
