- Title: Inyo National Forest Range Improvements
- Description:
-
- Abstract:
-
Locations of range improvements such as fences,
cattleguards, ponds, and tanks were recorded with
a GPS unit.
- Purpose:
-
The purpose of this project is to improve
management of the Inyo National Forest. By
recording location of range improvements, these
data can be imported into a GIS for analysis in
relation to other data.
- Supplemental_Information:
-
This is an ongoing project. On any given year not
more than 30% of grazing allotments on the Inyo
National Forest will be inventoried for the
improvements present.

- Process_Description:
-
Data were recorded with a GPS unit. After
downloading, data were imported into ArcView to
create shapefiles. Shapefiles will be merged. In
cases where GPS PDOP was too high, locations were
edited based on inspection of Digital Orthophoto
Quads
