From igcm at admws.idaho.gov Thu Feb 1 10:07:59 2018 From: igcm at admws.idaho.gov (Idaho Geospatial Council Membership) Date: Thu, 1 Feb 2018 17:07:59 +0000 Subject: [Igcm] GIS Website - February 2018 Map of the Month Message-ID: The February "Map of the Month" has been posted to the GIS website (along with maps previously posted to the site) and can now be viewed at: http://gis.idaho.gov/portal/maps/gallery.html This month's map application was submitted by Kara Utter, Valley County. Kara created a Snowmobile Groomed Trails map application for Valley County based on data from multiple sources, including the FS winter travel maps. It has some cool features and great information for winter recreationists. Groom dates are updated daily by Valley County Recreation and comments are included when obstructions or warnings to grooming or snowmobiling occur on a stretch of groomed trail. Roads that Valley County is responsible for plowing are included as a source for those driving to destinations for winter recreation. The map features an ability to turn on Snow Depth recordings provided and updated daily by National Operational Hydrologic Remote Sensing Center (NOHRSC) ArcGIS Online service and the 72-hour snow forecast from National Digital Forecast Database (NDFD) ArcGIS Online service.

The Idaho Geospatial Council - Executive Committee (IGC-EC) believes it is in the State of Idaho's best interest that NAIP remains free and open to the public in order to continue to share information and carry out our public interest work. IGC-EC, with much assistance by the Imagery TWG chair Margie Wilkins, has drafted a letter of support (final, signed copy attached) that will be sent to the USDA FSA, Idaho's U.S. Senators and Congressmen, and several Federal Geographic Data Committee contacts. The contents of the letter of support to keep NAIP free and open are mirrored in a petition (https://www.change.org/p/idaho-geospatial-council-keep-naip-imagery-free-open) that members of the Idaho GIS community can sign to bolster support. We urge you to not only sign the petition but leave a brief personal message explaining how NAIP is important to your day-to-day business. We want to really show how NAIP is important for so many other reasons than it was originally intended for - USDA FSA cropland analyses. I would like to keep the petition open until March 12th (approximately one month). At that time the signatures will be sent to USDA and again to the other contacts previously mentioned.
