NetMap can be built and applied anywhere in the world (Global Opportunity). TerrainWorks provides comprehensive analyses, ranging in scale from entire landscapes to watersheds to individual stream reaches, and is designed to be collaborative and accessible. NetMap’s unique set of virtual watersheds, analysis tools and online technical help, is designed to provide decision support in forestry, fisheries, restoration, riparian management, conservation, pre- and post-wildfire planning and climate change.
It enables users to extrapolate survey results to unsurveyed streams by using GIS to estimate habitat abundance, potential fish abundance, or fish carrying capacity, for example. The output is a shapefile of survey reaches with both the survey data and attributes associated with the digitally produced stream layer (e.g., drainage area, gradient, and valley width). It hosts a climate change component that includes projected changes in seasonal hydrographs, changes in the likely location of snow-to-rain transition zones, and thermal loading. This tool based on a geographic information system matches stream-survey data to digitally produced stream layers created with NetStream software.NetMap contains models that allow the user to conduct analyses on various parameters that influence aquatic ecosystems such as wood recruitment, erosion sources, and potential habitat. A GIS-based tool for linking field and digital stream data.
