Reef Check California’s Nearshore Ecosystem Database – Project Development and Management
2008

Project Website: http://ned.reefcheck.org/

Summary:

Reef Check California was expanding their volunteer diver survey program along the California Coast and sought a more robust system for inputting, sovaldi sale managing, and reporting survey data and findings. Working with Reef Check staff, the team designed an online database system, a highly customized series of user-friendly data input forms, and a number of options for readily accessing the information. The newly created NED system provides more streamlined interaction for the volunteer divers, as well as engages new users to investigate the status of rocky reef habitats in their area of interest through a suite of mapping, graphing, and reporting tools.

Role:

Served an overall advisory and management role, providing initial project development, scoping, and budgeting, prioritization of tasks and features, and overall design guidance. All REAL work done by the brilliant GreenInfo web team – Jennifer Strahan and Rhonda Friberg.

Gallery:

The main NED database can be managed using MySQL tools, while data entry occurs through a series of web-based data entry forms.

NED Map Viewer allows the user to view surveys by location and species counts, and reports and charts can be generated for a number of individual site statistics.

Los Angeles County-Wide Methodology For Prioritizing Structural BMP Implementation: Guidance for Strategic Storm Water Quality Project Planning
2006-2007

Summary:

This innovative project, buy led by a local nonprofit organization and a team of public agencies, sildenafil private consultants, and academic experts, set a goal of better managing runoff pollution within Los Angeles County watersheds. Our team focused on creating a GIS-based methodology for prioritizing structural best management practices (BMPs) designed to improve nonpoint source water quality. GIS was used to spatially and statistically examine precipitation patterns, land uses, existing impairments, hydrologic flow networks, and property ownerships to identify opportunities for implementing treatment structures, such as detention basins, porous pavements, and bioretention swales.

After the first implementation in Los Angeles County, our team transformed the methodology into an automated GIS-based tool and have since applied it regionally in San Diego and Orange Counties and locally at individual project locations across Southern California.

Role:

Served as lead GIS advisor, with tasks including:

  • data coordination and management,
  • GIS analysis design, GIS model development, affiliated database design, and documentation and user guide development.

        Tsunami Inundation Mapping for Western Sumatra - GIS Data and Mapping Support
        2005-2006

        Summary:

        The University of Southern California Tsunami Research Group conducts ongoing research into tsunami modeling and risk assessment for coastal areas around the globe. Severely impacted by the December 2004 Sumatra-Andaman earthquake and resulting tsunami, cure areas along the western coast of Sumatra remain under high risk for damage from future events centered within the nearby fault systems. The USC Tsunami Research Group uses advanced numerical models, calibrated by knowledge of past events, to estimate impacted areas under potential future fault activity. The results of their research aid local education, warning system development strategies, and planning around emergency response mechanisms.

        Role:

        Provided GIS data and mapping support to the Research Group, including acquisition and processing of pre- and post-event satellite imagery. Significant work in the creation of a series of bathymetric models derived from nautical charts and regional elevation/bathymetry data sources, used by Research Group scientists to conduct numeric modeling and estimate local inundation scenarios.
