  1. Intermountain Region Geographic Resources Program UpdateThe Next Stephttp://imgis.nps.gov

  2. Program FocusSupport the parks and programs in the Intermountain Region. 60% focus is Regional 40% Park specific

  3. Future Plans discussed at this meeting two years ago included: • Migrate from ArcIMS to ArcServer for public facing mapping application. • Expand park visits and support as funds allow.

  4. Intranet Web Map Service IMR Planning & Other Programs Intermountain Region Geographic Resources Program Fire & Aviation Management National Parks DSC Planning RTCA NPScape Lands Map Service Map Service Geodatabase Services Data Replication Data Replication National Parks I&M Networks

  5. Moving from external to internal mapping service.This allows us to point to mapping services for the Lands program and NPScapeStart with a variety of Pilot ProjectsWe’ll keep external services when needed

  6. Intranet Web Map Service IMR Planning & Other Programs Intermountain Region Geographic Resources Program Fire & Aviation Management National Parks DSC Planning RTCA NPScape Lands Map Service Map Service Geodatabase Services Data Replication Data Replication National Parks I&M Networks

  7. Goal is to offer services to parks as needed.Some parks can support SDE and two- way ReplicationOthers will point to Region SDE and Park GeodatabasesOthers will use the Web Based Mapping Service and rely on Region staff for GIS Support

  10. What is a Web Based Mapping Service? A Web Based Mapping Service is an interactive web based interface that allows the user to view and use GIS data to create layouts and print maps without specialized GIS software or training.

  11. Program Objective? • Our Mapping Service’s primary objective is to take GIS data that has been collected for Parks and make that information available to park staff. • With staffing changes many times GIS skills are lost to a park but the data should not be. • Our new mapping service is an internal and external facing site.

  12. How does it work? Our Mapping Service takes GIS data stored on the online NPS GIS Data Store, standardizes its appearance and makes it available through an easy to use, easy to access web portal. Additionally it provides a link so users can download GIS data and view detailed descriptions of the data.

  13. What else does it do? GeoCortex Essentials provides a whole suite of specialized tools allowing users to measure distances and areas, draw features onto maps, add your own shape files, find locations, save and print specialized layouts and much, much more...

  14. Open your internet browser and type in the URL: http://imgis.nps.gov/To open the web viewer select Interactive Maps in the left columnFor questions concerning the website application please contact Nancy Shock (303) 987-6653 How to use the IMS

  15. How to use the IMS This will take you to the Interactive Mapscover page. From here you can link directly to the NPS Data Store or select web sites for Intermountain Parks, National Historic Trails, Scenic Byways & Historic Routes, and National and Regional programs.

  16. How to use the IMS The Intermountain Parks page lists the parks we have developed Mapping Services for. The parks listed are constantly being updated. Click on a park name and you will be taken to the map viewer.

  17. When you initially open the IMS you see the full extent of the Park with imagery, the park boundary, and hydrography displayed. On the left select the folders to display the data available for each park.

  18. How to use the Mapping Service To turn on and off Map Layers use the left mouse button and select the yellow folder Then turn on and off specific layers by using the left mouse button to turn on or off the layer. A means the layer is on and being drawn and a means the layer is not being drawn.Left click on thesymbol by a layer and then select a feature onthe map to get a list of the detailed GIS information for that layer.Left click on the Legend button to Show or Hide the legend information in the Layer List.
