The principal focus of the wetland inventory is to produce wetland maps that are graphic representations of the type, size and location of wetlands in Wisconsin. Currently, there are two different datasets that have been created using different mapping methods and technologies.

The majority of the state was mapped using traditional stereo-pair, black-and-white, infrared photography. Within this context, the objective was to provide reconnaissance level information on the location, type, size of these habitats such that they are accurate at the nominal scale of the 1:20,000 (1 inch = 1667 feet) base map.

LiDAR Technology

LiDAR has advanced the ability to see and map wetland and surface water features.

New wetland mapping is underway in areas across the state at a nominal scale of 1:2000 (1 inch = 166.7 feet). The data are being mapped according to the National Wetland Inventory standards using new methods. Please see the WWI SOP for more information.

See LiDAR based status map for more information.

Data

The download contains both the older, high altitude, stereo-photo based mapping as well as the newer LiDAR based mapping. Any older WWI data within a new project area boundary have been removed.

The DNR recognizes the limitations of using remotely sensed information as the primary data source. They are to be used as a guide for planning purposes.

There is no attempt, in either the design or products of this inventory, to define the limits of jurisdiction of any federal, state, or local government or to establish the geographical scope of the regulatory programs of government agencies. Anyone intending to engage in activities involving modifications within or adjacent to wetland areas should seek the advice of appropriate federal, state, or local agencies concerning specified agency regulatory programs and jurisdictions that may affect such activities. The most accurate method of determining the legal extent of a wetland for federal or state regulations is a field delineation of the wetland boundary by a professional trained in wetland delineation techniques.

See https://dnr.wi.gov/topic/wetlands/inventory.html for more information on Wisconsin Wetland Inventory mapping.

This service is NOT for download but may be viewed in web maps and apps.Georeferenced Statewide Bedrock Geologic Map of Wisconsin, 1982. The Statewide Bedrock Geologic Map of Wisconsin was developed to provide a reliable, accurate and detailed representation of the state’s subsurface geology. It supports a variety of applications, including geological research, land-use planning, resource management, environmental conservation, education, public outreach, and policy development. By offering insights into the composition, structure, and distribution of bedrock formations, the map aids in identifying potential geological hazards and areas of scientific or ecological significance and helps planners, researchers, and decision-makers make informed choices.

The statewide geologic map symbol for each formation is standardized for consistency and can be found in the accompanying legend. The legend provides essential information, including formation names, lithologic descriptions, geologic age, and the symbology used in the dataset. This map and its data were developed by UW Extension-Geologic and Natural History Survey (WGNHS), Meredith E. Ostrom. Visit WGNHS Maps & Publications search for WGNHS maps and contact WGNHS at info@wgnhs.wisc.edu with any questions about this map or data. The map was georeferenced for use in this service by the Wisconsin DNR Bureau of Drinking Water and Groundwater, Water Use Section. For any questions contact the Bureau of Drinking Water and Groundwater GIS Analyst at DNRDGGISAPPS@wisconsin.gov. This data was mapped at a very small scale (ranging from 1:5,000,000 to 1:500,000), making it unsuitable for detailed local analysis or site-specific decision-making. Users are advised to consult local or higher-resolution datasets when conducting detailed analyses or making critical decisions.

This data set contains small-scale base GIS data layers compiled by the National Park Service Servicewide Inventory and Monitoring Program and Water Resources Division for use in a Baseline Water Quality Data Inventory and Analysis Report that was prepared for the park. The report presents the results of surface water quality data retrievals for the park from six of the United States Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) national databases:

(1) Storage and Retrieval (STORET) water quality database management system; 
(2) River Reach File (RF3) Hydrography; 
(3) Industrial Facilities Discharges; 
(4) Drinking Water Supplies; 
(5) Water Gages; and 
(6) Water Impoundments. 

The small-scale GIS data layers were used to prepare the maps included in the report that depict the locations of water quality monitoring stations, industrial discharges, drinking intakes, water gages, and water impoundments. The data layers included in the maps (and this dataset) vary depending on availability, but generally include roads, hydrography, political boundaries, USGS 7.5' minute quadrangle outlines, hydrologic units, trails, and others as appropriate. The scales of each layer vary depending on data source but are generally 1:100,000.

This Coastal Barrier Resources System (CBRS) data set, produced by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service), contains areas designated as undeveloped coastal barriers in accordance with the Coastal Barrier Resources Act (CBRA), as amended (16 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.). These digital polygons are representations of the CBRS boundaries shown on the official CBRS maps referenced in 16 U.S.C. 3503(a). Copies of the official CBRS maps are available for viewing at Service’s Headquarters office and are also available to view or download at https://www.fws.gov/cbra/maps/index.html. The boundaries used to create the polygons herein were compiled between 12/6/2013 and 8/16/2023 from the official CBRS maps. The boundaries of the CBRS Units in Connecticut, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and the Long Island portion of New York, were digitized from the official paper maps according to the guidelines in a notice published in the Federal Register on August 29, 2013 (see the “Georeferencing and Boundary Interpretation” and “Boundary Transcription” sections of 78 FR 53467; available at https://www.federalregister.gov/d/2013-21167). In all other cases where the official map was created through digital methods, the digital boundary was used. CBRS boundaries viewed using the CBRS Mapper or shapefiles are subject to misrepresentations beyond the Service’s control, including misalignments of the boundaries with third party base layers and misprojections of spatial data. The Service is not responsible for any misuse or misinterpretation of this digital data set, including use of the data to determine eligibility for Federal funding or financial assistance. Users should pair these data with the CBRS Buffer Zone shapefile and an orthoimage when inspecting areas that are within or in close proximity to the CBRS. Properties or structures that fall partially or entirely within the buffer area may be within the CBRS, and an official determination from the Service is recommended. For an official determination of whether or not an area or specific property is located within the CBRS, please follow the procedures found at https://www.fws.gov/service/coastal-barrier-resources-system-property-documentation. The official CBRS map is the controlling document and should be consulted for all official determinations in close proximity (within 20 feet) of a CBRS boundary. For any questions regarding the CBRS, please contact your local Service field office or email CBRA@fws.gov.
