Spatial framework for storage and analyses of fish habitat data in Great Lakes's areas of concern : Hamilton Harbour geodatabase case study / by A.G. Doolittle, C.N. Bakelaar and S.E. Doka.Fs97-6/2879E-PDF

Cover image

This approach synthesizes data from different projects into a geographic database (geodatabase), it can be utilized as a guide in standardizing formats, data structures and data layers that are used in generating and mapping key habitat features (vegetation, substrate, depth). These layers support fish habitat suitability, habitat supply, fish population and ecosystem models. Difficulties encountered will be discussed as well as rationale for the approach used. Construction and storage of these spatial layers within a GIS enables quantitative measurements of habitat and analysis of trends over time and space.
