“When pigs fly and hell freezes over,

When elephants rumble on the ocean floor, and trained bears twirl and twirl some more

When purple kitties jump and fly, and 50 foot mice touch the sky,

When fish are talking and snakes are walking,

Then about working with the NHD I’ll consider talking”If Jeff paid his way AND got him courtside Final Four Tickets,

he would attend

Rick, in response to Kevin Roth’s un-retirement

Why LLIDs ?

NHD already has a single stream identifier: the GNIS ID. Not universal, and tied to GNIS.

LLID = Lat-Long ID = the long/lat in Decimal Degrees of the outlet of the ‘single stream’. Can be generated automatically once you determine the single stream.

Most of our thematic data contains the LLID to reference the stream. Built in QA/QC for batch transforms.

Presents linear referenced data in terms that our bios and end-users know (RM 43.2 to RM 50.9 on the Yakima River) compared to NHD relative reach measures.

Allows reporting out as river miles on a single stream, and bios to provide data in terms that they understand. We provide hatched measures on single streams, and measures for key landmarks. Easy to compute river distance between 2 points.

Regional partners such as StreamNet use LLIDs for data management

Assigning LLIDs to NHD as events• WDFW stream data had GNIS ID and GNIS names• Match GNIS_IDs between WDFW str24 and NHD and xfer to NHD copy• Gets 90% of fish-bearing streams• Manually conflate fish streams with no GNIS_ID• Send all the little streams to Ecology (their LLIDS match NHD really well)

GNIS Issues

Page 9: Andy Weiss: WA Dept. of Fish and Wildlife Rick Jordan: WA Dept. of Ecology Arleta Agun: WA Dept. of Fish and Wildlife

Consistent Physical Stream Attributes• NetMap / NetTrace: Dan Miller, Lee Benda (ex-UW geomorphologists)

http://earthsystems.net/• State of the art geomorphology and hydrology. • NetTrace: DEM derived gradients, bankful width, valley width, upstream contributing

area, mean annual flow.• NetMap: Erosion / sediment delivery models, habitat suitability models (Intrinsic

Potential), wood accumulation• Currently being used for watershed characterization, fish distribution logistic regression

models, and GRTS sampling designs.

The NHD Application Demo

Originally presented in December 2010 to the State of Washington’s Geographic Information Technology Board, a subcommittee of the State of Washington Information Services Board that set’s state agency IT policies.

NHD adopted as the state’s framework hydrography Layer in January 2011

Page 11: Andy Weiss: WA Dept. of Fish and Wildlife Rick Jordan: WA Dept. of Ecology Arleta Agun: WA Dept. of Fish and Wildlife

GoalsShow the multi-agency hydrographic datasets now registered

to the NHD in the Lower Skagit.Demonstrate the power of the NHD data model, networking

capabilities, events, and shared applications.Perform a variety of analytic tasks on these integrated and

coincident hydrographic datasets.

Page 12: Andy Weiss: WA Dept. of Fish and Wildlife Rick Jordan: WA Dept. of Ecology Arleta Agun: WA Dept. of Fish and Wildlife

Dirty Laundry: WDFW, WDNR, and WECY all use and maintain different hydro linework.

USGS and WDOH Partnership Project: Test technology, business processes, and applications to achieve a unified hydrography.

Applications1. Spill response and impacts

• Downstream Trace• Impacted Drinking Water Sources (DOH)• Impacted Salmon habitat (DFW)

• Upstream Trace to identify potential pollution sources

2. Culvert removal (DFW Barriers)• New habitat opened in DNR Water Type F• Summarize newly opened NOAA predicted Steelhead habitat

3. Exposure of ESA listed species to Water Quality Impairments• Overlay DFW FishDist with DOE 305(B) list

4. Comparison of DFW FishDist with DNR water type codes• Find inconsistencies between the 2 datasets
