Maps of the Carneros Watershed
From CCoWS Wiki
Produced by ENVS 560/L Watershed Systems class at CSUMB.
Before anyone can add a map to this page, a set of base map GIS files is needed that everyone can start with. It should contain:
- A map boundary rectangle - so that all maps can easily be zoomed top the same extent
- Hydrography - Obtain this from the USGS National Map server --> Hydrography data --> define area using Interactive Map Server (new 2011 version) --> download --> place an order --> wait an hour or so
- Datsetes available from National Map server include (Topo maps, Structures, Transportation, Hydrography, Boundaries, Land Cover, Elevation, & Orthoimagery)
- Roads - Ditto - from National map server
- Watershed boundary
- Towns
- Feature labels
- Legend
Maps to add to this page:
- Base map, including vector linework for:
- Watershed boundary - from Elkhorn Rd and up
- Hydrography - streams (major & minor), coastline, sloughs, etc.
- Roads (major, medium, minor)
- Towns
- Labels for all of the above
- Elevation - with shaded relief - 1/9 second (10m) or 1/3 second (30m) from USGS Seamless server, or National Map server
- Slope - maybe with shaded relief
- Aerial photo (orthoimagery) - NAIP 4-band 1m is fine - from National Map server, or CaSIL
- Geology - maybe with shaded relief
- Soil type - maybe with shaded relief
- Land cover 2001 - maybe with shaded relief - from USGS National Map server
- Land cover 1992 - maybe with shaded relief - from USGS National Map server
- Mean annual precipitation - maybe with shaded relief
- Locations of precip gages and stream gages - maybe with shaded relief
- Watershed boundaries for Elkhorn Rd, Sill Road, and Johnson Rd - maybe with shaded relief
- Soil erosion index (maybe) - maybe with shaded relief
- Land ownership (maybe) - maybe with shaded relief
- Locations of groundwater wells (maybe) - maybe with shaded relief
- FEMA floodplain (maybe) - maybe with shaded relief
