This service combines parcel data from various local government bodies in Alaska and describes a subset of input fields using consistent field names. This service was designed for use in statewide applications that only require specific types of land parcel information, and benefit from having this information in a single service with a consistent schema. Any changes to input parcel data will trigger this service to update. Note that many input services do not include a truly unique identifier, or sometimes any identifier at all. The 'parcel_id' field contains a record identifier carried over from the input service, or is null if there is none. The 'local_gov' value of any record can be used to reference an input parcel web service in the table below.During processing, a *mostly unique identifier is created, called 'feature_id'. Duplicate values will occur for records that have identical 'local_gov' and 'parcel_id' values and also identical geometries. These cases are extremely rare (< 0.003%), and for the vast majority of records 'feature_id' is unique. Any duplicate values will be attached to parcels in the exact same place.Please reference original parcel web services if your use case requires official, authoritative, or comprehensive land parcel information.

This repository serves as a comprehensive data archive for GIS data utilized in the development of TXSELECT (tx.select.tamu.edu). Contents include raw, processed, and intermediate GIS datasets (watershed boundaries, land cover, soil type, census blocks etc.), used to create input files for TXSELECT using the code available at this site - https://github.com/shubhamjain15/TX-SELECT.

Can your desktop computer crunch the large GIS datasets that are becoming increasingly common across the geosciences? Do you have access to or the know-how to take advantage of advanced high performance computing (HPC) capability? Web based cyberinfrastructure takes work off your desk or laptop computer and onto infrastructure or "cloud" based data and processing servers. This talk will describe the HydroShare collaborative environment and web based services being developed to support the sharing and processing of hydrologic data and models. HydroShare supports the upload, storage, and sharing of a broad class of hydrologic data including time series, geographic features and raster datasets, multidimensional space-time data, and other structured collections of data. Web service tools and a Python client library provide researchers with access to HPC resources without requiring them to become HPC experts. This reduces the time and effort spent in finding and organizing the data required to prepare the inputs for hydrologic models and facilitates the management of online data and execution of models on HPC systems. This presentation will illustrate the use of web based data and computation services from both the browser and desktop client software. These web-based services implement the Terrain Analysis Using Digital Elevation Model (TauDEM) tools for watershed delineation, generation of hydrology-based terrain information, and preparation of hydrologic model inputs. They allow users to develop scripts on their desktop computer that call analytical functions that are executed completely in the cloud, on HPC resources using input datasets stored in the cloud, without installing specialized software, learning how to use HPC, or transferring large datasets back to the user's desktop. These cases serve as examples for how this approach can be extended to other models to enhance the use of web and data services in the geosciences.

This shapefile provides a worldwide geographic division by merging the World Continents division proposed by Esri Data and Maps (2024) to the Global Oceans and Seas version 1 division proposed by the Flanders Marine Institute (2021). Though divisions of continents and oceans/seas are available, the combination of both in a single shapefile is scarce.

The Continents and Oceans/Seas shapefile was carefully processed to remove overlaps between the inputs, and to fill gaps (i.e., areas with no information) by spatially joining these gaps to neighbour polygons. In total, the original world continents input divides land areas into 8 categories (Africa, Antarctica, Asia, Australia, Europe, North America, Oceania, and South America), while the original oceans/seas input divides the oceans/seas into 10 categories (Arctic Ocean, Baltic Sea, Indian Ocean, Mediterranean Region, North Atlantic Ocean, North Pacific Ocean, South Atlantic Ocean, South China and Easter Archipelagic Seas, South Pacific Ocean, and Southern Ocean). Therefore, the resulting world geographic division has 18 possible categories.

National forest roads allow access to public lands providing connections to natural and cultural heritage. Planning processes that address potential road closures or conversions can be highly contentious. Public participatory GIS (PPGIS) has been used as a tool to gather information for environmental planning and decision-making. Our PPGIS approach in a national forest in Washington (USA) incorporated workshops and online engagement with 1,810 participants to gather public input for sustainable roads planning. We identified the most important forest destinations and developed an analytical framework for assessing forest roads based on the density and diversity of use. In this paper, we summarize our PPGIS process and identify challenges faced in the application of socio-spatial data. A comparative analysis of road planning in other forests further highlights challenges in incorporating public use data. While the PPGIS process was valued for relationship-building, it is less evident how directly the socio-spatial data informed outcomes.

This data layer references data from a high-resolution tree canopy change-detection layer for Seattle, Washington. Tree canopy change was mapped by using remotely sensed data from two time periods (2016 and 2021). Tree canopy was assigned to three classes: 1) no change, 2) gain, and 3) loss. No change represents tree canopy that remained the same from one time period to the next. Gain represents tree canopy that increased or was newly added, from one time period to the next. Loss represents the tree canopy that was removed from one time period to the next. Mapping was carried out using an approach that integrated automated feature extraction with manual edits. Care was taken to ensure that changes to the tree canopy were due to actual change in the land cover as opposed to differences in the remotely sensed data stemming from lighting conditions or image parallax. Direct comparison was possible because land-cover maps from both time periods were created using object-based image analysis (OBIA) and included similar source datasets (LiDAR-derived surface models, multispectral imagery, and thematic GIS inputs). OBIA systems work by grouping pixels into meaningful objects based on their spectral and spatial properties, while taking into account boundaries imposed by existing vector datasets. Within the OBIA environment a rule-based expert system was designed to effectively mimic the process of manual image analysis by incorporating the elements of image interpretation (color/tone, texture, pattern, location, size, and shape) into the classification process. A series of morphological procedures were employed to ensure that the end product is both accurate and cartographically pleasing. No accuracy assessment was conducted, but the dataset was subjected to manual review and correction.University of Vermont Spatial Analysis LaboratoryThis dataset consists of City of Seattle Public Schools areas which cover the following tree canopy categories:Existing tree canopy percentPossible tree canopy - vegetation percentRelative percent changeAbsolute percent changeFor more information, please see the 2021 Tree Canopy Assessment.

Daily Chlorophyll-a concentration (mg/m-3) at ~4.6 km resolution. Chlorophyll in water changes the way it reflects and absorbs sunlight, allowing scientists to map the amount and location of phytoplankton using optics. These measurements give scientists valuable insights into the health of the ocean environment, and help scientists study the ocean carbon cycle. Subtle changes in chlorophyll-a signify various types and quantities of marine phytoplankton (microscopic marine plants), the knowledge of which has both scientific and practical applications.These chlorophyll layers show milligrams of chlorophyll per cubic meter of seawater. Places where chlorophyll amounts were very low, indicating very low numbers of phytoplankton are blue. Places where chlorophyll concentrations were high, meaning many phytoplankton were growing, are dark green. The observations come from the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on NASA's Aqua satellite. Places where MODIS could not collect data because of sea ice, polar darkness, or clouds are masked.The MODIS instrument is managed by NASA/Goddard Space Flight Center, Greenbelt, Maryland and was built by Raytheon/Santa Barbara Remote Sensing, Goleta, California.

description: IMMAGE will develop a coupled GIS-enabled web-based decision support (DS) framework to provide interactive model-based scenarios to evaluate the potential impact of sea level rise on water supply, inland flooding, storm surge, and habitat management in South Florida. The DS framework will be developed to allow scientists, local planners and resource managers to evaluate the impact of sea level rise on: 1. salt water intrusion into coastal water well fields, 2. the optimal use of canals to impede the inland movement of saline groundwater, 3. urban flooding, 4. the risk to populated areas and natural habitat from catastrophic storm surge, 5. wetland inundation periods and depths, 6. habitat suitability, 7. magnitude and distribution of future population growth, and 8. the impact of forecasted population growth on water demand and protected areas. The IMMAGE project will address the need to run the model with changing input parameters by developing a framework of online GIS-based interfaces to four selected models, thereby enhancing their usability and making them available to a broader user community.; abstract: IMMAGE will develop a coupled GIS-enabled web-based decision support (DS) framework to provide interactive model-based scenarios to evaluate the potential impact of sea level rise on water supply, inland flooding, storm surge, and habitat management in South Florida.

This map features the World Ecophysiographic Land Units 2015 layer, focused on the Caribbean. Ecological Land Units are areas of distinct bioclimate, landform, lithology, and land cover that form the basic components of terrestrial ecosystem structure. Click on the map to learn more about these components for a given location.Ecological Land Units (ELUs) are areas of distinct bioclimate, landform, lithology, and land cover that form the basic components of terrestrial ecosystem structure. The ELU layer was produced by combining the values in four 250-m cell-sized rasters using the ArcGIS Combine tool (Spatial Analyst). In 2015 these four components resulted in 3,639 different combinations or ELUs, which is 284 fewer than 2014 which used older land cover and a different landform methodology.Note: This layer is designed for use as a geoprocessing input layer and to support pop-ups in ArcGIS Online. Because of the large number of unique values in the image service, the legend cannot be used in a meaningful way. Use the World Ecological Land Units Map 2015 tiled map layer for mapping and visualization. These four component datasets represent the most accurate, current, globally comprehensive, and finest spatial and thematic resolution data available for each of the four inputs.
