Online Mapping Systems for Delivering Wyoming’s Hydroclimatic Data Christopher NicholsonWater Resources Data System & Wyoming State Climate Office UNIVERSITY OF WYOMINGFriday, November 2nd, 2012 Ag C (Old Ag Building) 316, 12:00pm – 1:00pm Online Mapping Systems for Delivering Wyoming’s Hydroclimatic Data Online, map-based applications have experienced an explosion in popularity over the past decade. The success of these systems is largely due to their ability to provide a spatial framework for data exploration, and for the visual context (e.g., satellite images) they offer. Beginning in the late 1990s, the Water Resources Data System (WRDS) at the University of Wyoming has worked to provide different online mapping systems for a variety of water and climate applications. As the web-based technologies have evolved, WRDS continues to develop new ESRI and Google tools to address specific needs for water managers, legislators and stakeholders from across the state to assist in decision making processes about Wyoming’s water resources. | |
