pointOfContact 2018-04-06 ISO 19139 Geographic Information - Metadata - Implementation Specification 2007 36 U.S. Forest Service originator mapDigital The Forest Service is aggressively implementing projects to mitigate the effects of the bark beetle in the Forest Service's western regions under the 2011 Western Bark Beetle Strategy. The strategy is being achieved through three well-defined goals: human safety, forest recovery, and long-term forest resiliency. https://www.fs.fed.us/restoration/Bark_Beetle/index.shtml Depicts the area of activities to implement the Western Bark Beetle Strategy. Activities were self-reported by field units, and center around three main objectives: increasing safety to ensure that people and community infrastructure are protected from the hazards of falling bark beetle-killed trees and elevated wildfire potential, facilitating recovery to re-establish forests damaged by bark beetles, and cultivating resiliency to prevent or mitigate future bark beetle impacts.

Required attributes are established to meet corporate expectations of reporting, monitoring or data sharing. All required and optional fields in this protocol are supported in the NRM FACTS application. Some attributes are auto-generated and populated in the FACTS application from the spatial feature. Detailed attribute descriptions and collection standards follow later in this document under Resource, Fields, Entity and Attribute Information.

distributor https://apps.fs.usda.gov/arcx/rest/services/EDW/EDW_WBBS_01/MapServer/2 dataset Data entry is accomplished by authorized Forest Service personnel through a web application behind the U.S. Forest Service firewall and is restricted by access requirement protocols. Further data checks occur during data migration, where certain fields such as ETL_MODIFIED and EDW_INSERT_DATE are populated with valid information. Data is accurate up to the publication date and attribute domains are valid values from Natural Resource Manager (NRM) Forest Activity Tracking System (FACTS). Generally the source information used to record spatial locations are from: 1) on-screen digitizing with a georeferenced topographic or image background; or 2) GPS field collected positions. Data from an Oracle Activity view with Project type like CFLRP is joined to the spatial NRM FACTS Activity polygons based on SUID. Polygons are duplicated for each record coming from the Oracle view. This process is run Sunday through Friday nights. 2016-02-12T00:00:00
