Managing your Data in INFRA and NRIS Water
Brian SanbornUSFS – NRIS Water/Air
Region 9 – Aquatic Organism Passage WorkshopEscanaba, MIMay 27, 2004
AOP in NRIS Water and Infra
Introduction• Overview
– NRIS Water– Infra
• Data Storage– What goes where….and why.
• Data retrieval and use
What is NRIS Water
N
Fish Distribution
NRIS Water Business Areas
• Aquatic inventory– Channel characterization, Fish habitat
• Aquatic biota– Aquatic animal occurrence, Population
sampling
• Water Uses Tracking System– Water uses, Water rights
• Watershed Improvement Tracking System– Inventory of potential sites, Project
management
• Aquatic Organism Passage
Surveys in NRIS Water
• Survey– What you are trying
to characterize– Defined by Protocol,
Date, and LocationRch QS-3
X-SEC 1
X-SEC 2
X-SEC 3
100 W/D
• Sample– Measurements
taken– Can have location– One-to-many
samples in a survey
– Sub-sampling– Defined by
robustness required
What is Infra?
… an integrated data management tool where Forests can enter, manage, and report accurate information and associated financial data on the inventory of their constructed features
Basis for Capitalization
Infra Business AreasInventory
Travel Routes Roads, Trails
Features Buildings, Water Systems, Dams, Culverts, Bridges, Waste Systems. Fences, Power Systems, Fire Device, Communication Systems…

7. Heritage
8. Roads
9. Trails
10. Buildings
11. Timber Sale Contracts
12. Bridges & Major

13. Dams
14. Wilderness
15. Visitor Use Permits
16. Mining Sites & Permits
17. Water Systems
18. Waste Systems
19. Work Items
20. Forest Product Permits
12. Culvert Module
The Problem…
• Infra stores data on culverts
• Water stores data on stream features
Some are barriers….
Some are barriers….
…some are not
…some are not
The solution…
Water stream features are locations on
streams
Attributes of Water Locations
ID: 5308-.953
Type: Stream Point
Infra culverts are features located
on roads
Attributes of Infra Features
ID: 5308-.953
Type: Culvert
Location/Feature Relationship
Infra Culvert Module Components
• FHWA – Federal Highway Administration– Inventory – Classification / Service – Structure / Geometric – Ratings – Inspections – Improvements / Rehab
Infra Culvert Module Components
• Culvert Installations – an area on a road or trail containing one or more culverts – the crossing– Management Information– Road information– Stream information
• Culverts – the individual pipes– Pipe information
• Type, material, size• Attachments• Problems
– Longitudinal Profiles

Culvert Information
Culvert Attachments
Culvert Problems
Culvert Surveys
•Longitudinal and Cross Section
Linking Culvert and Passage
Passage Classification
Select Location
Enter Survey Data
Classify passage by species, by life stage
Passage Survey
Survey sections of streams or single features
Waterfalls, dams, fords, etc
Longitudinal profiles and Cross Sections
Data Retrieval and Use
• Output of culvert data for use in – FishXing– Eastern Region Course Screen
• Longitudinal and cross section output– Plotting– Calculations – height, slope, residual
pool depths, outlet drop, etc.
• Data summations for passage classification– By species– By life stage
Data Retrieval and Use
• Summaries by feature, reach, stream, watershed
• Locate passage classifications upstream and downstream (road crossings and others)
• Identify species occurrence and habitat surveys relative to barrier
• Can be regionally customized – we need your input
