Space Use Conflict Study

Three components of the scientific research included a literature review, a geospatial database, and ethnographic research. The literature review surveyed the professional, grey, and peer-reviewed literature on spatial conflicts in the marine environment. Summaries of the literature tracked how stakeholders resolved, mitigated, and addressed space use conflicts. A geospatial database was developed to include available GIS data and new GIS data produced by the study team. The ethnographic data collection occured by engaging individuals and small groups in one on one guided discussions. In addition, the study team convened larger group meetings to describe the study and to develop contacts for further research.

USGS National Hydrography Dataset (NHD) Best Resolution for HU8-01010009 20141227 HU-8 Subbasin FileGDB 9.3.1

The USGS National Hydrography Dataset (NHD) is a comprehensive set of digital spatial data that encodes information about naturally occurring and constructed bodies of surface water (lakes, ponds, and reservoirs), paths through which water flows (canals, ditches, streams, and rivers), and related entities such as point features (springs, wells, stream gages, and dams). The information encoded about these features includes classification and other characteristics, delineation, geographic name, position and related measures, a "reach code" through which other information can be related to the NHD, and the direction of water flow. The network of reach codes delineating water and transported material flow allows users...
