This mapping tool provides a representation of the general watershed boundaries for stream systems declared fully appropriated by the State Water Board. The boundaries were created by Division of Water Rights staff by delineating FASS critical reaches and consolidating HUC 12 sub-watersheds to form FASS Watershed boundaries. As such, the boundaries are in most cases conservative with respect to the associated stream system. However, users should check neighboring FASS Watersheds to ensure the stream system of interest is not restricted by other FASS listings. For more information regarding the Declaration of Fully Appropriated Stream Systems, visit the Division of Water Rights’ Fully Appropriated Streams webpage. How to Use the Interactive Mapping Tool: If it is your first time viewing the map, you will need to click the “OK” box on the splash screen and agree to the disclaimer before continuing. Navigate to your point of interest by either using the search bar or by zooming in on the map. You may enter a stream name, street address, or watershed ID in the search bar. Click on the map to identify the location of interest and one or more pop-up boxes may appear with information about the fully appropriated stream systems within the general watershed boundaries of the identified location. The information provided in the pop-up box may include: (a) stream name, (b) tributary, (c) season declared fully appropriated, (d) Board Decisions/Water Right Orders, and/or (e) court references/adjudications. You may toggle the FAS Streams reference layer on and off to find representative critical reaches associated with the FASS Watershed layer. Please note that this layer is for general reference purposes only and ultimately the critical reach listed in Appendix A of Water Rights Order 98-08 and Appendix A together with any associated footnotes controls. Note: A separate FAS Watershed boundary layer was created for the Bay-Delta Watershed. The Bay-Delta Watershed layer should be toggled on to check if the area of interest is fully appropriated under State Water Board Decision 1594.

On shallow rocky reefs in northeastern Aotearoa, New Zealand, urchin barrens are recognised as indicators of the ecosystem effects of overfishing reef predators. Yet, information on their extent and variability is lacking. We use aerial imagery to map the urchin barrens and kelp forests on reefs (<30 m depth) across seven locations, including within two long-established marine reserves and a marine protected area that allows recreational fishing. Urchin barrens were present in all locations and were restricted to reefs <10-16 m deep. This archive contains ArcGIS shapefiles and layer files for all of the maps used in this study. The study area extends from Cape Reinga in the far north of the North Island to Tawharanui in the Hauraki Gulf near Auckland. Regional scale base maps of the prominent marine habitats were included along with the seven fine-scale maps where the kelp forests and urchin barrens were mapped., The GIS shapefiles produced in this study were hand-drawn over layers of low-level aerial photography taken in specific conditions, which maximised the visible depth observable to create polygons to depict the habitat boundaries of the shallow reef. Of particular interest was the mapping of urchin barrens. Ground truthing surveys creating point data and underwater imagery were also brought into the GIS project to assist in drawing the reef habitat polygons. Arc layer files contain a common symbology across the seven study maps to aid the interpretation of the mapping. Further information on the methodology used in the mapping can be found in two published papers and four technical reports corresponding to the maps.

Alquist-Priolo Earthquake Fault Zoning Act (1972) and the Seismic Hazards Mapping Act (1990) direct the State Geologist to delineate regulatory "Zones of Required Investigation" to reduce the threat to public health and safety and to minimize the loss of life and property posed by earthquake-triggered ground failures. Cities and counties affected by the zones must regulate certain development "projects" within them. These Acts also require sellers of real property (and their agents) within a mapped hazard zone to disclose at the time of sale that the property lies within such a zone.

NOTE: Fault Evaluation Reports are available for those areas covered by a Regulatory Map however there are reports available for areas outside the Regulatory map boundary. For a complete set of maps available for purchase on CD please contact the CGS Library.

Overview

This dataset contains all DOMI Street Closure Permit data in the Computronix (CX) system from the date of its adoption (in May 2020) until the present. The data in each record can be used to determine when street closures are occurring, who is requesting these closures, why the closure is being requested, and for mapping the closures themselves. It is updated hourly (as of March 2024).

Preprocessing/Formatting

It is important to distinguish between a permit, a permit's street closure(s), and the roadway segments that are referenced to that closure(s).

• The CX system identifies a street in segments of roadway. (As an example, the CX system could divide Maple Street into multiple segments.)

• A single street closure may span multiple segments of a street.

• The street closure permit refers to all the component line segments.

• A permit may have multiple streets which are closed. Street closure permits often reference many segments of roadway.

The roadway_id field is a unique GIS line segment representing the aforementioned segments of road. The roadway_id values are assigned internally by the CX system and are unlikely to be known by the permit applicant. A section of roadway may have multiple permits issued over its lifespan. Therefore, a given roadway_id value may appear in multiple permits.

The field closure_id represents a unique ID for each closure, and permit_id uniquely identifies each permit. This is in contrast to the aforementioned roadway_id field which, again, is a unique ID only for the roadway segments.

City teams that use this data requested that each segment of each street closure permit be represented as a unique row in the dataset. Thus, a street closure permit that refers to three segments of roadway would be represented as three rows in the table. Aside from the roadway_id field, most other data from that permit pertains equally to those three rows. Thus, the values in most fields of the three records are identical.

Each row has the fields segment_num and total_segments which detail the relationship of each record, and its corresponding permit, according to street segment. The above example produced three records for a single permit. In this case, total_segments would equal 3 for each record. Each of those records would have a unique value between 1 and 3.

The geometry field consists of string values of lat/long coordinates, which can be used to map the street segments.

All string text (most fields) were converted to UPPERCASE data. Most of the data are manually entered and often contain non-uniform formatting. While several solutions for cleaning the data exist, text were transformed to UPPERCASE to provide some degree of regularization. Beyond that, it is recommended that the user carefully think through cleaning any unstructured data, as there are many nuances to consider. Future improvements to this ETL pipeline may approach this problem with a more sophisticated technique.

Known Uses

These data are used by DOMI to track the status of street closures (and associated permits).
