Attribute tables are an essential part of working with GIS. In addition to the spatial element, feature classes will have additional data associated to them which can be viewed within the attribute table.To open an attribute table...Right click a layer within the contents paneClick 'Attribute Table'.

The National Hydrography Dataset Plus (NHDplus) maps the lakes, ponds, streams, rivers and other surface waters of the United States. Created by the US EPA Office of Water and the US Geological Survey, the NHDPlus provides mean annual and monthly flow estimates for rivers and streams. Additional attributes provide connections between features facilitating complicated analyses. For more information on the NHDPlus dataset see the NHDPlus v2 User Guide.Dataset SummaryPhenomenon Mapped: Surface waters and related features of the United States and associated territories not including Alaska.Geographic Extent: The United States not including Alaska, Puerto Rico, Guam, US Virgin Islands, Marshall Islands, Northern Marianas Islands, Palau, Federated States of Micronesia, and American SamoaProjection: Web Mercator Auxiliary Sphere Visible Scale: Visible at all scales but layer draws best at scales larger than 1:1,000,000Source: EPA and USGSUpdate Frequency: There is new new data since this 2019 version, so no updates planned in the futurePublication Date: March 13, 2019Prior to publication, the NHDPlus network and non-network flowline feature classes were combined into a single flowline layer. Similarly, the NHDPlus Area and Waterbody feature classes were merged under a single schema.Attribute fields were added to the flowline and waterbody layers to simplify symbology and enhance the layer's pop-ups. Fields added include Pop-up Title, Pop-up Subtitle, On or Off Network (flowlines only), Esri Symbology (waterbodies only), and Feature Code Description. All other attributes are from the original NHDPlus dataset. No data values -9999 and -9998 were converted to Null values for many of the flowline fields.What can you do with this layer?Feature layers work throughout the ArcGIS system. Generally your work flow with feature layers will begin in ArcGIS Online or ArcGIS Pro. Below are just a few of the things you can do with a feature service in Online and Pro.ArcGIS OnlineAdd this layer to a map in the map viewer. The layer is limited to scales of approximately 1:1,000,000 or larger but a vector tile layer created from the same data can be used at smaller scales to produce a webmap that displays across the full range of scales. The layer or a map containing it can be used in an application. Change the layer’s transparency and set its visibility rangeOpen the layer’s attribute table and make selections. Selections made in the map or table are reflected in the other. Center on selection allows you to zoom to features selected in the map or table and show selected records allows you to view the selected records in the table.Apply filters.

The Geodatabase to Shapefile Warning Tool examines feature classes in input file geodatabases for characteristics and data that would be lost or altered if it were transformed into a shapefile. Checks include:
1) large files (feature classes with more than 255 fields or over 2GB), 2) field names longer than 10 characters
string fields longer than 254 characters, 3) date fields with time values 4) NULL values, 5) BLOB, guid, global id, and raster field types, 6) attribute domains or subtypes, and 7) annotation or topology

The results of this inspection are written to a text file ("warning_report_[geodatabase_name]") in the directory where the geodatabase is located. A section at the top provides a list of feature classes and information about the geodatabase as a whole. The report has a section for each valid feature class that returned a warning, with a summary of possible warnings and then more details about issues found.

The tool can process multiple file geodatabases at once. A separate text file report will be created for each geodatabase. The toolbox was created using ArcGIS Pro 3.7.11.

This packaged data collection contains all of the outputs from our primary model, including the following data layers: Habitat Cores (vector polygons) Least-cost Paths (vector lines) Least-cost Corridors (raster) Least-cost Corridors (vector polygon interpretation) Modeling Extent (vector polygon) Please refer to the embedded spatial metadata and the information in our full report for details on the development of these data layers. Packaged data are available in two formats: Geodatabase (.gdb): A related set of file geodatabase rasters and feature classes, packaged in an ESRI file geodatabase. ArcGIS Pro Map Package (.mpkx): The same data included in the geodatabase, presented as fully-symbolized layers in a map. Note that you must have ArcGIS Pro version 2.0 or greater to view. See Cross-References for links to individual datasets, which can be downloaded in shapefile (.shp) or raster GeoTIFF (.tif) formats.

Purpose:This feature layer describes water quality sampling data performed at several operating coal mines in the South Fork of Cherry watershed, West Virginia.Source & Data:Data was downloaded from WV Department of Environmental Protection's ApplicationXtender online database and EPA's ECHO online database between January and April, 2023.There are five data sets here: Surface Water Monitoring Sites, which contains basic information about monitoring sites (name, lat/long, etc.) and NPDES Outlet Monitoring Sites, which contains similar information about outfall discharges surrounding the active mines. Biological Assessment Stations (BAS) contain similar information for pre-project biological sampling. NOV Summary contains locations of Notices of Violation received by South Fork Coal Company from WV Department of Environmental Protection. The Quarterly Monitoring Reports table contains the sampling data for the Surface Water Monitoring Sites, which actually goes as far back as 2018 for some mines. Parameters of concern include iron, aluminum and selenium, among others.A relationship class between Surface Water Monitoring Sites and the Quarterly Monitoring Reports allows access to individual sample results.Processing:Notices of Violation were obtained from the WV DEP AppXtender database for Mining and Reclamation Article 3 (SMCRA) Permitting, and Mining and Reclamation NPDES Permitting. Violation data were entered into Excel and loaded into ArcGIS Pro as a CSV text file with Lat/Long coordinates for each Violation. The CSV file was converted to a point feature class.Water quality data were downloaded in PDF format from the WVDEP AppXtender website. Non-searchable PDFs were converted via Optical Character Recognition, so that data could be copied. Sample results were copied and pasted manually to Notepad++, and several columns were re-ordered. Data was grouped by sample station and sorted chronologically. Sample data, contained in the associated table (SW_QM_Reports) were linked back to the monitoring station locations using the Station_ID text field in a geodatabase relationship class.Water monitoring station locations were taken from published Drainage Maps and from water quality reports. A CSV table was created with station Lat/Long locations and loaded into ArcGIS Pro. It was then converted to a point feature class.Stream Crossings and Road Construction Areas were digitized as polygon feature classes from project Drainage and Progress maps that were converted to TIFF image format from PDF and georeferenced.The ArcGIS Pro map - South Fork Cherry River Water Quality, was published as a service definition to ArcGIS Online.Symbology:NOV Summary - dark blue, solid pointLost Flats Surface Water Monitoring Sites: Data Available - medium blue point, black outlineLost Flats Surface Water Monitoring Sites: No Data Available - no-fill point, thick medium blue outlineLost Flats NPDES Outlet Monitoring Sites - orange point, black outlineBlue Knob Surface Water Monitoring Sites: Data Available - medium blue point, black outlineBlue Knob Surface Water Monitoring Sites: No Data Available - no-fill point, thick medium blue outlineBlue Knob NPDES Outlet Monitoring Sites - orange point, black outlineBlue Knob Biological Assessment Stations: Data Available - medium green point, black outlineBlue Knob Biological Assessment Stations: No Data Available - no-fill point, thick medium green outlineRocky Run Surface Water Monitoring Sites: Data Available - medium blue point, black outlineRocky Run Surface Water Monitoring Sites: No Data Available - no-fill point, thick medium blue outlineRocky Run NPDES Outlet Monitoring Sites - orange point, black outlineRocky Run Biological Assessment Stations: Data Available - medium green point, black outlineRocky Run Biological Assessment Stations: No Data Available - no-fill point, thick medium green outlineRocky Run Stream Crossings: turquoise blue polygon with red outlineRocky Run Haul Road Construction Areas: dark red (40% transparent) polygon with black outlineHaul Road No 2 Surface Water Monitoring Sites: Data Available - medium blue point, black outlineHaul Road No 2 Surface Water Monitoring Sites: No Data Available - no-fill point, thick medium blue outlineHaul Road No 2 NPDES Outlet Monitoring Sites - orange point, black outline

This dataset contains 50-ft contours for the Hot Springs shallowest unit of the Ouachita Mountains aquifer system potentiometric-surface map. The potentiometric-surface shows altitude at which the water level would have risen in tightly-cased wells and represents synoptic conditions during the summer of 2017. Contours were constructed from 59 water-level measurements measured in selected wells (locations in the well point dataset). Major streams and creeks were selected in the study area from the USGS National Hydrography Dataset (U.S. Geological Survey, 2017), and the spring point dataset with 18 spring altitudes calculated from 10-meter digital elevation model (DEM) data (U.S. Geological Survey, 2015; U.S. Geological Survey, 2016). After collecting, processing, and plotting the data, a potentiometric surface was generated using the interpolation method Topo to Raster in ArcMap 10.5 (Esri, 2017a). This tool is specifically designed for the creation of digital elevation models and imposes constraints that ensure a connected drainage structure and a correct representation of the surface from the provided contour data (Esri, 2017a). Once the raster surface was created, 50-ft contour interval were generated using Contour (Spatial Analyst), a spatial analyst tool (available through ArcGIS 3D Analyst toolbox) that creates a line-feature class of contours (isolines) from the raster surface (Esri, 2017b). The Topo to Raster and contouring done by ArcMap 10.5 is a rapid way to interpolate data, but computer programs do not account for hydrologic connections between groundwater and surface water. For this reason, some contours were manually adjusted based on topographical influence, a comparison with the potentiometric surface of Kresse and Hays (2009), and data-point water-level altitudes to more accurately represent the potentiometric surface.

Point feature class and related table containing the Precise Surveys measurement time series. Measurements include elevations, Northings and Eastings, distances, and point-to-point measurements. Northing and Easting measurements are in CA State Plane Coordinate systems, Elevations measurements are provided in NAVD88 or NGVD29. This dataset is for data exploration only. These measurements and point locations are not considered survey-grade since there may be nuances such as epochs, adjustments, and measurement methods that are not fully reflected in the GIS data. These values are not considered authoritative values and should not be used in-lieu of actual surveyed values provided by a licensed land surveyor. Related data and time series are stored in a table connected to the point feature class via a relationship class. There may be multiple table entries and time series associated to a single mark. Data was assembled through an import of Excel tables and import of mark locations in ArcGIS Pro. Records were edited by DOE, Geomatics, GDSS to resolve any non-unique mark names. This dataset was last updated 4/2024.

The ArcGIS Pro Permitting and Environmental Information Tool (APPEIT) Project Package includes all of the layers that are in the NTIA Permitting and Environmental Information Application as well as the APPEIT Tool which will allow users to input a project area and determine what layers from the application overlap with it. An overview of the project package and the APPEIT tool is provided below. User instructions on how to use the tool are available here. Instructions now include how to customize the tool by adding your own data. A video explaining how to use the Project Package is also available here. Project Package OverviewThis map package includes all of the layers from the NTIA Permitting and Environmental Information Application. The layers included are all feature services from various Federal and State agencies. The map package was created with ArcGIS Pro 3.4.0. The map package was created to allow users easy access to all feature services including symbology. The map package will allow users to avoid downloading datasets individually and easily incorporate into their own GIS system. The map package includes three maps.1. Permitting and Environmental Information Application Layers for GIS Analysis - This map includes all of the map tabs shown in the application, except State Data which is provided in another tab. This map includes feature services that can be used for analysis with other project layers such as a route or project area. 2. Permitting and Environmental Information Application Layers – For Reference Only - This map includes layers that cannot be used for analysis since they are either imagery or tile layers.3. State Data - Reference Only - This map includes all relevant state data that is shown in the application.The NTIA Permitting and Environmental Information Application was created to help with your permitting planning and environmental review preparation efforts by providing access to multiple maps from publicly available sources, including federal review, permitting, and resource agencies. The application should be used for informational purposes only and is intended solely to assist users with preliminary identification of areas that may require permits or planning to avoid potentially significant impacts to environmental resources subject to the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) and other statutory requirements. Multiple maps are provided in the application which are created from public sources. This application does not have an exhaustive list of everything you need for permitting or environmental review for a project but is an initial starting point to see what might be required.APPEIT Tool OverviewThe Department of Commerce’s National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) is providing the ArcGIS Pro Permitting and Environmental Information Tool (APPEIT) to help federal broadband grant recipients and subgrantees identify permits and environmental factors as they plan routes for their broadband deployments. Identifying permit requirements early, initiating pre-application coordination with permitting agencies, and avoiding environmental impacts help drive successful infrastructure projects. NTIA’s public release of the APPEIT tool supports government-wide efforts to improve permitting and explore how online and digital technologies can promote efficient environmental reviews. This Esri ArcGIS Pro tool is included in the map package and was created to support permitting, planning, and environmental review preparation efforts by providing access to data layers from publicly available sources, including federal review, permitting, and resource agencies. An SOP on how to use the tool is available here. For the full list of APPEIT layers, see Appendix Table 1 in the SOP. The tool is comprised of an ArcGIS Pro Project containing a custom ArcGIS Toolbox tool, linked web map shared by the NTIA’s National Broadband Map (NBAM), a report template, and a Tasks item to guide users through using the tool. This ArcGIS Pro project and its contents (maps and data) are consolidated into this (.ppkx) project file. To use APPEIT, users will input a project area boundary or project route line in a shapefile or feature class format. The tool will return as a CSV and PDF report that lists any federal layers from the ArcGIS Pro Permitting and Environmental Information Web Map that intersect the project. Users may only input a single project area or line at a time; multiple projects or project segments will need to be screened separately. For project route lines, users are required to specify a buffer distance. The buffer distance that is used for broadband projects should be determined by the area of anticipated impact and should generally not exceed 500 feet. For example, the State of Maryland recommends a 100-foot buffer for broadband permitting. The tool restricts buffers to two miles to ensure relevant results.
