  1. Welcome to Green Mountain Stadium Paul Georgieff Nicole Whitney

  2. Introduction and Purpose • Vermont does not currently have a professional sports team because they do not have a stadium in which to play. • By building a large stadium, we could facilitate football, baseball, and soccer teams. • The stadium could also be used by local colleges and high schools for championship games.

  3. Scope • Many of the surrounding states already have stadiums. • Our focus was on the entire state of Vermont.

  4. Criteria • Population • Roads • Hazardous waste • Schools • Endangered Species • Structures • Wetlands

  5. Population Criteria Highly populated location Spectators are necessary Chittenden County has highest population

  6. Roads Criteria • Close proximity to major roads • Gets spectators to games • Gets teams to games • Between 50 and 500 meters to a major road

  7. Hazardous Waste Criteria • Don’t want stadium on waste sites • It’s a public facility • Health concerns need to be taken into account • Minimum of 500 meters from waste site

  8. Schools Criteria • Schools may use stadium • Close proximity to UVM, and many major local high schools • As close as possible to schools

  9. Endangered Species Criteria • We care about endangered species • Need to protect their habitats • Minimum of 500 meters from habitats

  10. Structures Criteria • Cannot build on existing buildings

  11. Wetlands Criteria • Cannot build on soggy land • Minimum of 50 meters from wetland

  12. Data Analysis • Considered each criteria • Used find distance, geoprocessing, buffers, clip, and map calculator to distill data

  13. Buffers 500 meter buffer around hazardous waste sites 50 meter buffer around all wetlands

  14. Distance to Endangered Species

  15. Distance to Major Roads

  16. Distance to Selected Schools

  17. Map Calculator • The low values were ideal • Map calculator was used to find optimal location • Based on endangered species, roads, and selected schools

  18. Map Calculator

  19. Best Locations • Buffers and structures were placed over the map calculation • This map was used to find optimal locations (circled in red)

  20. Conclusion and Recommendation • We recommend these two locations for the future site of the Green Mountain Stadium. • They were chosen because they had low values without buffer overlap.
