Abstract


Paper
Making Use of 1997 NRI Data in ArcView
Track: Environment Management
Author(s): James Carrington

This paper will describe the use of ArcView by the United States Department of Agriculture-Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) to integrate 1997 National Resources Inventory data. The National Resources Inventory is a collection of natural resources information of nonfederal land in the Unites States. This data provides information that is used to formulate effective agricultural and environmental policies and legislation, implement resource conservation programs, and provide a picture of many of our nation's natural resources and conditions. This paper will illustrate how NRI data can be brought into ArcView and how cartographic products and reports can be generated very easily.
