  1. Title: Streams Containing Coho Salmon Populations: Russian River Basin, California, 1993-2002

    Contributors:

    Summary: This line shapefile represents coho salmon locations in California Dept. of Fish and Game records from biosampling and other surveys, plus other available records such as those of the Warm Springs Dam Hatchery and the Occidental Arts and Ecology Center. The underlying hydrology is the CDF-NCWAP 1:24,000 streams layer, which is derived from USGS 7.5-minute Digital Line Graph data. The line work should therefore match National Map Accuracy Standards for 1:24,000 scale data (90% of tested points in the original line work were within +/- 40 feet). This should represent a nearly complete inventory of streams where coho have been verified to be found since January of 1993, however this can be contrasted with the historical coho streams available in a seperate GIS layer. This dataset depicts which streams in the Russian River basin have recently supported coho salmon. Circuit Rider Productions and National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (2002). Streams Containing Coho Salmon Populations: Russian River Basin, California, 1993-2002. Circuit Rider Productions.

  3. Title: Denver, Colorado, 1904 (Raster Image)

    Contributors:

    Summary: This layer is a georeferenced raster image of the historic paper map entitled: Map of the city of Denver : showing the lines of the Denver City Tramway Co. It was published by Smith-Brooks Co., engravers and printers in 1904. Scale [ca. 1:21,000]. The image inside the map neatline is georeferenced to the surface of the earth and fit to the HARN State Plane Colorado Central Zone NAD 1983 coordinate system (in Feet) (Fipszone 0502) coordinate system. All map collar and inset information is also available as part of the raster image, including any inset maps, profiles, statistical tables, directories, text, illustrations, index maps, legends, or other information associated with the principal map. This is a partial cadastral map showing features such as roads, railroads, existing and proposed tramway lines, property lots with numbers and names of selected property owners, drainage, selected buildings, parks, and more.This layer is part of a selection of digitally scanned and georeferenced historic maps from the Harvard Map Collection. These maps typically portray both natural and manmade features. The selection represents a range of originators, ground condition dates, scales, and map purposes.
