Abstract
A GIS Tool for Studies on the Lake Texoma Ecosystem
Track: Ecology, Archaeology, and Conservation
Author(s): David S. Burden, Jason Masoner
The U.S. EPA is conducting studies on the Lake Texoma watershed (located on the Oklahoma/Texas border) to develop tools/information needed to evaluate the transport and attenuation of contaminants and link them to observable ecological effects. To evaluate the data, a desktop geographic information system was built using ArcView software. Each GIS data set consists of point features based on locations of monitoring sites. These point features are dynamically linked to a geographic data table, a water quality data table, and/or an ecological data table by a common attribute. Records can be analyzed/queried and the results shown in a graphical manner.
