Tick Creek Watershed Mapping Results
A geodatabase was created to compile existing and new data on the Tick Creek Watershed, and to allow analysis of the data to gain a better understanding of the watershed.
Maps were created from the geodatabase and saved as Adobe PDF documents. Data is compiled and shown for the subwatersheds that drain to Tick Creek to enable comparisons. Stakeholders can use the maps to discuss potential management strategies for each of the subwatersheds. Each pdf map will download and open with all the layers and labels turned on. You can turn off layers by clicking on the layer button to the left, (which looks like a stack of pages or layers.)
