The
off channel habitat site locations are stored in an ArcGIS point
feature class. The data is compressed in a zipfile and can be downloaded
by clicking on the links given below. There are links for a geodatabase
and for a shape file. The off channel sites in the Skagit and Stillaguamish
basins have an additional attribute table containing the information
from the survey forms. The attribute table can be joined to the
point feature class using the Site_ID field. This attribute table
is also part of the download. The survey form information for the
Olympic Peninsula off channel sites has not been entered into an
attribute table as yet. Hopefully, funding can be found to get this
accomplished.
The off channel point feature class also has a field called Report_URL
that has a path to the survey form PDFs. The survey form PDFs can
be downloaded using the links given below. The PDFs are compressed
into zip files. The PDFs for the North Puget Sound are contained
in one zip file, while the Olympic Peninsula PDFs are broken up
by basin given that there were twice as many site surveyed on the
Olympic Peninsula. Some of these files are quite large so they may
take some time to download. After you have downloaded the files,
you should create a folder called "off_channel" under your C: drive,
then create another folder called "reports" under the "off_channel"
folder. The PDF zip files can then be unzipped into the "reports"
folder to match the path given in the Report_URL field. ArcMap should
read the Report_URL filed has a link to the PDFs.
The
information and instructions displayed above can be downloaded here
as a text
