Why build “Framework” base layers? • Commonly used base spatial data – almost always need it to make a map • High resolution spatial and temporal accuracies • Spatial databases complete in geometry and attribution • Standards-based, well-documented • Enhanced functionality (i.e., NHD stream flow, linear referencing) • Seamless across political or other collection area boundaries • Reduces costly data duplication efforts • Facilitates data exchange (i.e., NHD to TIGER/Line) • Certified, consistent base layers for The National Map
Trends for Statewide Core Data Sets Geospatial Trends for Statewide Core Data Sets 1:100,000 Scale 1980’S 1:24,000 Scale 1990’s-present 1:4800 Scale Future
Orthoimagery • Present • 1996-1999 USGS Color-Infrared Digital Orthophoto Quads • 1:12,000 scale (1” = 1000 ft.) • 1 meter GSD • 1822 USGS 3.75-Minute quarter quads • Valued at 2 million • Future • 2003 Statewide Addressing and Mapping Board (SAMB) Natural Color Orthophotos • 1:4800 scale (1” = 400 ft.) • 2 foot GSD • 8,000 image files – 10,000’ x 10,000’ Tiles • 4.72 million; USDA cost share $375,000 • Challenges • Large file size and quantity of SAMB imagery • Update cycles for new imagery

Hydrography • Present • 1:24,000-scale National Hydrography Dataset (NHD) • 1:24,000-scale sub watershed boundaries (6th level, 12-digit HUCs) • Future • Convert SAMB hydography to 1:4800-scale NHD • SAMB data: minimum attribution • Challenges • Funding, needs analysis, cost-effectiveness of conversion
Transportation • Present • 1:24,000-scale Topographic Map-Based vectors (minimal attribution) • 1:62,500-scale WV DOT (cartographic generalizations) • 1:100,00-scale Census TIGER files (poor spatial resolution) • Future • 1:4800-scale SAMB addressable road centerlines • Census MAF/TIGER Modernization • Re-alignment of Census TIGER data to SAMB road centerlines • SAMB data meets minimum requirement of 7.6 meters accuracy • Challenges • Long-term maintenance of statewide, addressable road centerline data set • Integration with SAMB long-term maintenance program • Integrating statewide road centerline data set with locally produced edge of pavement (double line) roads

Elevation • Present • 1:24,000-scale Digital Line Graphy (vector) Hypsography (77%) • 30-meter DEMs (100%) • 10-meter DEMs (36%) • Future • High-Resolution Elevation Products (5 meter or better DEM grids) • WVSAMB “enhanced” digital terrain model • WV DOT $850,000 cost share for Microstation files • USGS Pilot to convert SAMB to gridded raster • IFSAR digital terrain model • LIDAR • Challenges • Vertical accuracies not guaranteed in dense vegetation • Best product for the National Elevation Dataset (NED)

Boundaries (Governmental Units) • Present • Various types of political and administrative boundaries compiled at various scales: County and Municipal Boundaries; Census Geographic Entity Boundaries; Public Land Boundaries; Tax District Boundaries; Emergency Service Zone Boundaries; Legislative Boundaries • Future • Improved Coordination: • WV Association of Land Surveyors for GIS-compatible surveys • WV Legislative Redistricting Office for District Boundaries • Census Submission of Digital Annexation & Boundary Surveys • Improve Boundaries with SAMB data • Challenges • Certified, consistent boundaries the same for all levels of government • Shared geographic boundaries properly aligned (i.e., WMAs with NF)
Land Ownership (Cadastral) • Present • 42 of 55 counties (76 %) are using, or transitioning to, GIS-based tax mapping programs • Future • Link SAMB addressable mapping files (i.e., structures) with cadastral • Challenges • Local assessors establishing GIS-based mapping programs • Linking geographic files to State’s Integrated Assessment System (IAS) • Capitalize on Mineral Parcel Mapping Project • Statewide repository of tax parcel files
Mineral Parcel Mapping Project • Can be a starting point for digital tax map conversions • Not all surface parcel related features collected • Not continually updated WV DTR Collection State Mapping Project Local Tax Map
Geographic Names • Present • Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) • Updates by West Virginia through web data entry and edit forms • Future (maintenance activities) • Target GNIS feature classes with high error rate for batch processing • Wildlife Management Areas (WV DNR) • Schools (WV Army National Guard) • Update GNIS manmade features with SAMB addressable mapping layers • Schools, Churches, Hospitals, Bridge, Building, Airport) • Incorporate subtypes (Schools – public, private, college, vocational) • Challenges • Reconciling previous with more current name databases
Structures • Present • Limited • Future • SAMB addressable structures (approximately 800,000) • building centroids • footprint polygons of major structures (> 7500 square feet) • Challenges • Maintenance of statewide structure database • Integration of structure spatial database with other data models
Geodetic Control (Transparent Layer) • Present • WV High Accuracy Reference Network (HARN) established in 2000 • New ground control established through SAMB • Future • Additional CORS survey grade base stations • Densify Federal Base Network • Challenges • Establishing protocols for exchanging geographic information between surveyors and GIS professionals
