BAGIS
Definition
- The goal of the San Francisco Bay Area Demonstration GIS Project (BAGIS) is to develop a set of geographic information and geoprocessing tools to allow on-line access to baseline map and imagery data for the San Francisco Bay and near coastal areas. This is a collaborative effort undertaken by the UC Berkeley Research Program in Environmental Planning and Geographic Information Systems (REGIS), the San Francisco Bay Conservation and Development Commission (BCDC), and the National Ocean Service (NOS) within the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). The BAGIS project is one of the program activities of the larger NOS/NOAA San Francisco Bay Demonstration Project, which explores methods for integrated support for maritime commerce and coastal resource management. BAGIS Web Site 1. Types of Information Resources -Geospatial point, vector, and raster data -Image data -Real-Time data -Text Report 2. Types of Accesses to these Resources -Locational - directed: search tools via metadata -Locational - undirected: browse metadata, descriptive text and images -Identification - overview: descriptive text, thumbnail images -Identification - detailed: metadata -Visualization: graphic images, GIS display -Interaction: GIS display and query functions -Integration: GIS overlay functions -Acquisiton: download capabilities for some data layers 3. Types of Users -Novice users - Overview information, browse tools -Moderate - metadata, search tools -Advanced - GIS capabilities, download ability 4. Purposes for Use -Users with an interest in SF BAY Area. -Users interested in geographic features or subjects covered by data. -Users interested in the online presentation of geographic information -Others: more user feedback is needed to determine BAGIS Data: 1. San Francisco Bay Bathymetric Point and contour Line Data -One gzipped, tar file that contains 13 ordered DOGS text files and FGDC metadata -FTP Link for obtaining DOGS software -FTP Link to DOGS User Manual -Bathymetric Contour file and metadata - ArcInfo Export file -Bathymetric Contour file and metadata - ArcView Shape file 2. NOAA Nautical Charts for the San Francisco Bay: These scanned Nautical Charts are copyrighted and are therefore not available for download. Please see the metadata for information on obtaining these charts in digital form. You can view these nautical charts online via the BAGIS Web GIS page. 3. NOS Topographic Survey Sheets (T-Sheets) for the San Francisco Bay Area Forty -two high-resolution NOS T-Sheets in pcx format are available for download along with their FGDC metadata. -Large-scale T-Sheets, 1851-1900 -Small-scale T-Sheets, 1981-1982 4. San Francisco Environmental Sensitivity Index (ESI) data Eight ESI Coverages with Metadata, available as ArcInfo Export (e00) files, geographic coordinate system: -esi.e00 -index.e00 -mmammal.e00 -bird.e00 -fish.e00 -tmam.e00 -crust.e00 -hydro.e00 Four ESI Lookup Tables, available as ArcInfo Export (e00) files, geographic coordinate system: -biores -species -season -polys.lut 5. NOAA San Francisco 1:80K MLLW Medium Resolution Shoreline file -In ArcInfo Export format with metadata -In ArcView Shapefile format with metadata -In GRASS vector format with metadata (UTM Nad 27) 6. San Francisco Physical Oceanographic Real-Time System (SFPORTS) data -Sensor locations available as GRASS Sites files with Metadata -For Sensor Observations see the SFPORTS Information Hub 7. The U.S. Coast Pilot 7 Pacific Coast: California, Oregon, Washington and Hawaii, 30th edition The Coast Pilot is not available for download. However, the entire 511 page volume is available online at " http://www.regis.berkeley.edu/bagis/bagis_cpilot.html" BAGIS Homepage:"http://www.regis.berkeley.edu/bagis/" [Summary provided by REGIS] (en)
