Developing a Road/Stream GIS Database to Enhance Environmental Evaluation in Wyoming Game & Fish Department & The Wyoming Department of Transportation

Project Dates: September 2004 - August 2004

Funding Sponsor: U.S. Geological Survey - Biological Resources Division

Principal Investigator: Nathan Nibbelink

Co-Principal Investigator: D. Schrupp (Colorado Division of Wildlife)

Project Summary:

The purpose of this project is to intersect the streams and roads of the state of Wyoming to identify all crossings, link those crossings with basic information from the Wyoming Game and Fish Department stream database and the Wyoming Department of Transportation bridge database, to create a final geospatial dataset that can facilitate required environmental evaluation activities in both agencies.
