Abstract:

This Latitude-Longitude Identifier (LLID) 1:100,000 hydrography layer edge-matched across state boundaries was used as the primary base-layer for the Westslope Cutthroat Trout Range-wide Assessment. The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) in Portland, in cooperation with Bonneville Power Administration, the Northwest Power Planning Council, and other Federal and state agencies and NW Indian Tribes produced a 1:100,000-scale River Reach data layer for the Pacific Northwest in the early 1990s. The Pacific Northwest (PNW) River Reach Files are a geo-referenced river reach data layer that encompasses the Columbia River Basin within the conterminous United States, the coasts of Oregon and Washington, Puget Sound in Washington, the Klamath and Goose Lake Basins in southern Oregon and the Bear Lake Basin in southeastern Idaho (PNW Reach File, Gladstone, Oregon: Stream Net, August 2002. <http://www.streamnet.org/pnwr/pnwrhome.html>). River reach files for Montana east of the Continental Divide were obtained from Montana Fish Wildlife and Parks (Streams. Helena, MT: Montana Fish Wildlife and Parks, August 2002 and are available at <http://fwp.state.mt.us/insidefwp/fwplibrary/gis/>). This LLID hydrography layer routes stream segments by uniquely identifying each stream. The polylineM shapefile format allows for increased display speed using ArcView.

Purpose:

This hydrography layer was used as the primary base-layer for the Westslope Cutthroat Trout Range-wide Assessment.
