  1. Aquatic Organism PassageManaging your Data in INFRA and NRIS Water Brian Sanborn USFS – NRIS Water/Air Region 9 – Aquatic Organism Passage Workshop Escanaba, MI May 27, 2004

  2. AOP in NRIS Water and InfraIntroduction • Overview • NRIS Water • Infra • Data Storage • What goes where….and why. • Data retrieval and use

  3. Database Field Data What is NRIS Water Integrated Tools for Water Resource Management Protocol Analysis Location

  4. NRIS Water Business Areas • Aquatic inventory • Channel characterization, Fish habitat • Aquatic biota • Aquatic animal occurrence, Population sampling • Water Uses Tracking System • Water uses, Water rights • Watershed Improvement Tracking System • Inventory of potential sites, Project management • Aquatic Organism Passage

  5. X-SEC 1 X-SEC 2 100 W/D X-SEC 3 Surveys in NRIS Water • Survey • What you are trying to characterize • Defined by Protocol, Date, and Location Rch QS-3 • Sample • Measurements taken • Can have location • One-to-many samples in a survey • Sub-sampling • Defined by robustness required

  6. What is Infra? … an integrated data management tool where Forests can enter, manage, and report accurate information and associated financial data on the inventory of their constructed features

  7. Inventory Travel Routes Roads, Trails Features Buildings, Water Systems, Dams, Culverts, Bridges, Waste Systems. Fences, Power Systems, Fire Device, Communication Systems… Developed Sites, RMUs/Pastures, Administrative Sites, Heritage Sites, Wilderness Land Units Basis for Capitalization Permits & Contracts Create/Modify Inventory Fiscal Management • Grazing Permits • Visitor Use Permits • Grants and Agreements • Special Uses • Mining Sites and Permits • Forest Product Permits • Subsidiary Ledgers • Billing • Work Planning/Maintenance • Cost Estimating • Accomplishment Reporting • FFIS Interfaces • FAADS Interface Bills & Receipts Infra Business Areas

  8. Current Infra Applications • Timber Sale Contracts • Bridges & Major Culverts • Dams • Wilderness • Visitor Use Permits • Mining Sites & Permits • Water Systems • Waste Systems • Work Items • Forest Product Permits 1. Real Property Management 2. Real Property Accounting 3. Grants & Agreements 4. Range Land & Permits 5. Special Uses 6. Developed Recreation Sites 7. Heritage 8. Roads 9. Trails • Buildings • Culvert Module

  9. Some are barriers…. …some are not Some are barriers…. …some are not The Problem… • Infra stores data on culverts Water stores data on stream features

  10. Location/Feature Relationship The solution… Water stream features are locations on streams Infra culverts are features located on roads Attributes of Water Locations ID: 5308-.953 Type: Stream Point Attributes of Infra Features ID: 5308-.953 Type: Culvert

  11. Infra Culvert Module Components • FHWA – Federal Highway Administration • Inventory • Classification / Service • Structure / Geometric • Ratings • Inspections • Improvements / Rehab

  12. Infra Culvert Module Components • Culvert Installations – an area on a road or trail containing one or more culverts – the crossing • Management Information • Road information • Stream information • Culverts – the individual pipes • Pipe information • Type, material, size • Attachments • Problems • Longitudinal Profiles

  13. Management Stream Road Culvert Installations

  14. Culvert Information

  15. Culvert Attachments

  16. Culvert Problems

  17. Culvert Surveys Longitudinal and Cross Section

  18. Linking Culvert and Passage

  19. Enter Survey Data Classify passage by species, by life stage Select Location Passage Classification

  20. Passage Survey Survey sections of streams or single features Waterfalls, dams, fords, etc Longitudinal profiles and Cross Sections

  21. Data Retrieval and Use • Output of culvert data for use in • FishXing • Eastern Region Course Screen • Longitudinal and cross section output • Plotting • Calculations – height, slope, residual pool depths, outlet drop, etc. • Data summations for passage classification • By species • By life stage

  22. Data Retrieval and Use • Summaries by feature, reach, stream, watershed • Locate passage classifications upstream and downstream (road crossings and others) • Identify species occurrence and habitat surveys relative to barrier • Can be regionally customized – we need your input

  23. Data Retrieval and Use Maps and network Tools
