National Capital Parks - Central Small-Scale Base GIS Data

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.

Sagamore Hill National Historic Site (SAHI) Shoreline Position Change Monitoring Data Package - 2024

These data represent a series of mean high-water shorelines collected at Sagamore Hill National Historic Site (SAHI), appended into one spatial dataset. The features have been assembled / collected in support of the Northeast Coastal & Barrier Inventory and Monitoring Network's Ocean Shoreline Position Monitoring Program. Surveys along the ocean shoreline were collected by driving a 4-wheel drive vehicle or walking at a relatively constant speed along the identified high tide swash line. For the purposes of this monitoring program, the actual ocean "shoreline" was defined as the average position of the most recent high tide, evidenced by the obvious wet/dry sand line or deposited wrack. The GPS/GNSS receiver was configured to record positions at a very short interval (at least 1 position every 10 meters) for the best representation of the shoreline position. Depending on the time of year and intended purpose, some surveys contain ocean, inlet and bay shorelines, while some surveys only contain ocean shorelines. Additionally, some surveys collected prior to 2003 do not contain FGDC-compliant metadata records. This dataset contains shoreline features collect between Fall 2011 and Fall 2024.

Geospatial data for the Vegetation Mapping Inventory Project of Golden Spike National Historic Site

The files linked to this reference are the geospatial data created as part of the completion of the baseline vegetation inventory project for the NPS park unit.  Current format is ArcGIS file geodatabase but older formats may exist as shapefiles.

The mapping component of the GOSP project used a combination of methods to interpret and delineate vegetation polygons. The initial set of polygons was drawn and annotated in the field on a 1:3500-scale print of the base true-color orthoimagery. The lines were transferred to a digital environment in an ArcMap personal geodatabase using on-screen digitizing methods.

Each polygon was assigned a map class number, alpha code and name, Anderson land use class, and vegetation density, pattern, and height attributes. In order to improve the utility of the map and related data, the spatial database was moved into a geodatabase format, the general structure of which is illustrated in Figure 13. This format allows text and image information to be incorporated and linked to spatial coordinates. Detailed documentation of the geodatabase is provided in Appendix C. All geospatial products associated with this project are in the UTM projection, NAD83, Zone 12.

Hydrographic and Impairment Statistics Database: NEPH

Hydrographic and Impairment Statistics (HIS) is a National Park Service (NPS) Water Resources Division (WRD) project established to track certain goals created in response to the Government Performance and Results Act of 1993 (GPRA). One water resources management goal established by the Department of the Interior under GRPA requires NPS to track the percent of its managed surface waters that are meeting Clean Water Act (CWA) water quality standards. This goal requires an accurate inventory that spatially quantifies the surface water hydrography that each bureau manages and a procedure to determine and track which waterbodies are or are not meeting water quality standards as outlined by Section 303(d) of the CWA. This project helps meet this DOI GRPA goal by inventorying and monitoring in a geographic information system for the NPS: (1) CWA 303(d) quality impaired waters and causes; and (2) hydrographic statistics based on the United States Geological Survey (USGS) National Hydrography Dataset (NHD). Hydrographic and 303(d) impairment statistics were evaluated based on a combination of 1:24,000 (NHD) and finer scale data (frequently provided by state GIS layers).

Landbird Monitoring in Southeast Coast Network Parks - Data packages

Data were collected during implementation of the Southeast Coast Network’s Landbird Community Monitoring Protocol.  Automated recording devices (ARDs) captured bird vocalizations at spatially-balanced random sampling locations during the April-May breeding season.  A subset of of recorded audio were reviewed and all discernible bird vocalizations were reviewed and classified to species.

Geospatial data for the Vegetation Mapping Inventory Project of Grand Portage National Monument

The files linked to this reference are the geospatial data created as part of the completion of the baseline vegetation inventory project for the NPS park unit.  Current format is ArcGIS file geodatabase but older formats may exist as shapefiles.

Ultimately, we developed a geodatabase containing four feature classes: vegetation points (containing vegetation sample points and AA sites), vegetation and land use polygons (showing locations of vegetation types and general land features), 1:12,000-scale CIR aerial photograph centers, and project boundary extent. Included in the geodatabase are several tables providing a suite of supporting information, from classification crosswalks to detailed sampling data. All geospatial products are projected in the Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM), Zone 16, using the North American Datum of 1983 (NAD83).

Elk camera trapping in GRSM near Fines Creek in Great Smoky Mountains National Park

Summary of proposed field methods and activities:
With the assistance of Kim Delozier from Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation, we will set 3-4 Reconyx Camera Traps on the ridges between the Cataloochee Valley and Fines Creek. The GPS waypoints for the camera locations will be recorded. The cameras will be set for 3-week periods, and then the SD cards will be retrieved, and the cameras will be relocated to new areas on this tract of land. Any wildlife images that are captured as part of this monitoring will be uploaded to the Candid Critters eMammal website and be made available to NPS. Currently, Kim is attempting to locate access points for these public lands.
