These are the results of the survey "GIS Support on Campus", which was announced via email on May 13, 2014 to Gis4lib, HIGHERED-L, and MAPS-L. I have received requests to view the survey results; however, there was no statement about redistribution in the original survey, other than a presentation at the Esri Education GIS Conference 2014. To ensure confidentiality for survey respondents, these results have been anonimized or aggregated where needed. The PDF of my presentation slides from the 2014 Esri Education GIS Conference can be accessed at http://proceedings.esri.com/library/userconf/educ14/index.html.

HEPGIS is a web-based interactive geographic map server that allows users to navigate and view geo-spatial data, print maps, and obtain data on specific features using only a web browser. It includes geo-spatial data used for transportation planning. HEPGIS previously received ARRA funding for development of Economically distressed Area maps. It is also being used to demonstrate emerging trends to address MPO and statewide planning regulations/requirements , enhanced National Highway System, Primary Freight Networks, commodity flows and safety data . HEPGIS has been used to help implement MAP-21 regulations and will help implement the Grow America Act, particularly related to Ladder of Opportunities and MPO reforms.

Legislative AuthorizationAssembly Bill 1808 appropriated $4 million to establish the California Geographic Lead Agencies (Lead Agency) to build the capacity of county offices of education (COEs) to ensure that counties are equipped to build the capacity of their local educational agencies (LEAs) to support the continuous improvement of student performance within the state priorities as defined in California Education Code (EC) sections 52060 and 52066 and address the gaps in achievement between student groups as defined in EC Section 52052.PurposeThe 6 to 10 Lead Agencies will work together to support the following goals for all counties. The Lead Agencies will also connect COEs to the other initiatives within California's System of Support.Support the continuous improvement of student performance within the state priorities across student groups as defined in EC sections 52060 and 52066.Address the gaps in achievement between student groups as defined in EC Section 52052.Improve outreach and collaboration with stakeholders to ensure that goals, actions, and services as described in school district and COEs Local Control and Accountability Plans reflect the needs of the community, especially for historically under-represented or low-achieving populations.Serve as a facilitator, resource connector, and capacity builder for COEs.Funding DescriptionEach Lead Agency is selected for a term ending no later than June 30, 2023. Each awardee will receive a minimum of $250,000 and additional funds will be allocated based on a formula derived from the 2018 list of school districts eligible for differentiated assistance

A Groundwater Nitrate Decision Support Tool (GW-NDST) for wells in Wisconsin was developed to assist resource managers with assessing how legacy and possible future nitrate leaching rates, combined with groundwater lag times and potential denitrification, influence nitrate concentrations in wells (Juckem et al. 2024). The GW-NDST relies on several support models, including machine-learning models that require numerous GIS input files. This data release contains all GIS files required to run the GW-NDST and its machine-learning support models. The GIS files are packaged into three ZIP files (WI_County.zip, WT-ML.zip, and WI_Buff1km.zip) which are contained in this data release. Before running the GW-NDST, these ZIP files need to be downloaded and unzipped inside the "data_in/GIS/" subdirectory of the GW-NDST. The GW-NDST can be downloaded from the official software release on GitLab (https://doi.org/10.5066/P13ETB4Q). Further instructions for running the GW-NDST, and for acquiring requisite files, can be found in the software's readme file.

Abstract Easily understandable thematic maps of geo-scientific parameters are important for land use decision making. If several parameters are relevant and have to be compared, it is important that they are consistent with each other, available at the same spatial range and detail and normed to a common data range. In the current study, geological and topographical data have been used to derive a set of 90 geo-scientific maps for an area of 400 km² in the northern part of the metropolitan area of Belo Horizonte. Each parameter has been transferred to a common data range between 0 and 1 using a Semantic Import Model strategy and afterwards combined to derive new parameters for soil hydrology and hydrogeology. From these, many intermediate geo-scientific parameters, maps of geo-resources (sand/gravel, carbonates, fertile soils) and geo-hazards (erosion, groundwater pollution) have been derived that they can be used as base information for a participatory and sustainable land use planning. The workflow is transparently stored in GIS-tools and can be modified and updated if new information is available.

PLSSQuarterQuarterSections_GCDB is the fourth level of a hierarchical break down of the Public Land Survey System Rectangular surveys. This data is Version 2.3 2020 of the Utah PLSS Fabric. This data set represents the GIS Version of the Public Land Survey System. Updates are expected annually as horizontal control positions from published sources and global positioning system (GPS) observations are added. The primary source for the data is cadastral survey records housed by the BLM supplemented with local records and geographic control coordinates from states, counties as well as other federal agencies such as the USGS and USFS. This data was orginally published on 1/3/2017. Updated 12/15/2020Updates were made to Quarter Quarter Sections in Utah County to add quarter-quarter sections to areas that were not broken down less than the Section level. These are labeled as SECDIVTYP = Z and SECDIVTXT = Unsurveyed Unprotracted. They were added using information from points collected by county surveyors, that is in the data and extrapolating information from adjoining sections wherever possible. They are still areas that could not be interpreted well enough and they were left empty, beyond the section level.

Service providing links to datasets available on SNH Natural Spaces. Contains direct download links for all the published datasets in various formats (Shapefile, GML, KML, etc.)

This data set represents the geologic contacts found in Utah as digitized by the Utah Geological Survey in 2000.

Landslide Inventory Polygons feature class includes spatial, geologic, and qualitative landslide activity information and is useful for ranking areas of potential movement, and together with GIS analysis, provides an analytical tool for discerning the relationship between landslides and specific land-management elements. Landslide Inventory Polygons were captured using LiDAR, stereo aerial photography, other data, and field reconnaissance by the UGS. Last updated March, 2016. More information on landslide hazards in Utah is available from the UGS at http://geology.utah.gov/hazards/landslides-rockfalls/
