What it Does
Runs as an MS Access add-in Requires ArcGIS 9.3 Transforms coordinates from one
coordinate system/datum to another in a table
Provides a wizard-style interface to lead through the process

BAE Systems
7.5% of all documents get lost, 3% remain misfiled. Coopers & Lybrand
Professionals spend 5-15% of their time reading information, but up to 50% looking for it.

Missing Files
So why can’t we find any file we want, the first time, every time?

The Scenario
You’re asked to find a document on fuel loading in GUMO written in the late 70’s by Johnson.

The Issues
•Not a inventory project•Not a monitoring project•Field work was done in 1979 report completed in 80•Document was scanned so file date is useless•Johnson’s name was Hessler when it was written

Efficient Procedures for Publishing Reports in the Natural Resource Publication Series
Fagan Johnson, NRPC - Inventory & Monitoring Division
![Page 39: 2010 NPS RIM Conference Thursday Show and Tell](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070500/568168a4550346895ddf3b09/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Why Publish Nationally? Promotes the sharing of information among
different NPS offices (Divisions, Regions, I&M Networks, Park Units, etc.).
Assures long-term digital storage of your final report.
Number of Reports Published to Date 344 NRTR Reports 222 NRR Reports 44 NRDS Reports
![Page 40: 2010 NPS RIM Conference Thursday Show and Tell](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070500/568168a4550346895ddf3b09/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Step 1: select the correct series for your report, and download the template.Natural Resource Technical Reports (NRTR)Display comprehensive scientific studies. Typically follow the standard scientific report format (Introduction, Methods, Results, etc.).
Natural Resource Reports (NRR)Targets a general, diverse audience, and may contain NPS policy considerations or address sensitive issues of management applicability. Reports are often organized into chapters.
Natural Resource Data Series (NRDS)Shorter and less formal reports that are intended for the timely release of basic data. The analysis and interpretation of the data is provisional and subject to change. Often referred to as “data snapshots.”

Step 2: format your report using the template, and submit it to your official peer review manager for review.Step 3: peer review and edit the report.Step 4: submit the report to the WASO office, along with a filled out Manuscript Submittal Form and Checklist (MSF).

Step 5: new series name/number, TIC number, and final list of updates is sent back to the editor/author. Critical items scrutinized: Final report is a single document with decent
print quality (images are 300 dpi or better). Layouts of the front and back covers are exact
to NRPM standards. Only NPS-approved fonts are used (Rawlinson
or Times New Roman, Frutiger or Arial). A cursory review to check for anything obvious
that was missed.

Step 6: finished PDF document is uploaded to NatureBib/IRMA for permanent digital storage.

(Very) Abbreviated Background
• Salt Creek Road: Peakaboo to Angel Arch (12 mi.)• Early Jeep travel route• Becomes Non-Motorized in 1998 via GMP
• San Juan county asserts RS-2477 ROW• Claims prior motorized ROW• i.e. Road in use for period of 10+ years prior to
CANY enabling legislation (1964)• NPS Objective: Show little or no use prior to 1964
![Page 48: 2010 NPS RIM Conference Thursday Show and Tell](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070500/568168a4550346895ddf3b09/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
The Evidence• 3 key “geographic pieces”
• Cadastral Surveys ( 3 Versions )• Topographic Maps ( 5 Versions )• Orthophotos ( 5 Versions )
• Georeference & Mosaiced 60 GB Data• Documented when/where SC road is visible

Support Strategies• Strategy #1: Self Contained Display Platforms
• Layered Geo-PDF• ArcReader Document• Large Format Plots
• Strategy #2: On the Fly Mapping• Lack of technical understanding• Evolving Legal Arguments

Lessons Learned• Trials evolve…signifigantly
• Data Mining/Map Templates• Multiple media formats
• Context Matters• Understanding the case• Being present saves time in stressful situations
• Maps as arguments• Involve GIS specialist in legal strategy
