| Project Description: |
This project developed
an up-to-date, reliable Geographic Information System (GIS) data
layer of dam locations and attributes in North Carolina for use
in fish passage analysis and planning. The project, carried out
by the North Carolina Center for Geographic Information and Analysis,
located and described close to 4,700 dams within the State. This
information was incorporated into the Fish Passage Program's National
Inventory of Barriers database and will be used in fish passage analysis and planning. |
