1. Bonnet Carre’ Spillway Viewer June 13 2008 Scott Wilson, PhD Spatial Analysis Branch Chief National Wetlands Research Center

2. Bonnet Carre’ Spillway Viewer  Spillway opened April 11, 2008  Multi-agency/organization partnership to display monitoring location data  USGS requested by the USACE to develop quick-response viewer: http://deltas.usgs.gov/BonnetCarre.aspx  Call went out to agencies/organizations to submit their monitoring locations and collection parameters for display on the Viewer

3. Phase 1: Quick Response http://www.mvn.usace.army.mil/  Linked on the MVN-USACE District homepage: http://www.mvn.usace.army.mil/  LCA Science and Technology Program Data Management

4.  Viewer went up within days of request from USACE  Location data posted as it is received  Tabular data with site coordinates processed into GIS format

5. Multi-Agency/Organization Effort  Contributing partners:

6. Viewer Functionality  Zoom in and click on a point for details about a site

7. Site Parameters  Site details include:  Coordinate information  Site name and/or ID  Lead agency or organization  Type of information being collected (i.e. water quality)  Collection frequency Sample

8. Other Site Information  Example: USGS NWIS Station  Click on an NWIS site  Click on link for “More Site Info”

9. Viewer Functionality Data Type  Choose a different display category: Data Type

10. Viewer Functionality Frequency  Choose a different display category: Frequency

11. Viewer Functionality  Download site data in tabular format with project description and methods

12. Links of Interest

14. Phase 2: LCAST Viewer http://lcast.sam.us ace.army.mil/  Long-term data repository: http://lcast.sam.us ace.army.mil/  Can import Bonnet Carre’ web mapping service (wms)

15. LCAST Web Mapping Service  Click on the link at the top, “Servers Edit”, type in the WMS URL  Click “Retrieve Layers from Server” to view list of layers

16. LCAST Web Mapping Service  Click on layer “sites” to show all  Click “Submit Layers for Processing”  Click “Update Map to view sites on the LCAST Viewer

18. Next Steps  Agencies are collecting/checking monitoring data for quality assurance  Plans for making monitoring data public?  USGS NWISUSGS LAWSCLDNRCRMS  USGS NWIS, USGS LAWSC, LDNR, and CRMS – have websites with public access to data  LDEQ  LDEQ – compiling reports and will put them on their website  LSU  LSU - publishing their NSF funded monitoring efforts and data can be available upon request  LDWF  LDWF - do not yet have set plans for making monitoring data publicly available, but would like to  ERDC  ERDC – will compile tech notes and publish sturgeon monitoring data in a journal

19. Project Future  Bonnet Carre’ Viewer will continue throughout the summer  LCAST will be long-term repository for the location data  LCAST can also be repository for collected monitoring data if agencies want to make their data publicly available there

20. Future Data Collection  Didn’t see your data on the Viewer?  This is an on-going effort  Monitoring location data will continue to be added to the Viewer  Please send your data to:  Richard Boe at Richard.E.Boe@usace.army.mil and/or Molly Reif at reifm@usgs.gov
