Publication_Date: 20120515 Title: Wyoming Landscape Conservation Initiative (WLCI) Hydrologic Units (HUC 12/Level6) Edition: First Geospatial_Data_Presentation_Form: Vector Digital Data (Polygon) Series_Information: Series_Name: U.S. Geological Survey Data Series Issue_Identification: DS 700 Publication_Information: Publication_Place: Denver, CO Publisher: U.S. Geological Survey Online_Linkage: http://pubs.usgs.gov/ds/700/ Description: Abstract: This dataset consists of subwatershed polygons that intersect the WLCI boundary. These polygons were subset from the National Hydrography Dataset (Hydrologic Unit Code 12/Level 6). The data contained in this report was compiled, modified, and analyzed for the Wyoming Landscape Conservation Initiative (WLCI) Integrated Assessment (IA). The WLCI is a long-term science based effort to assess and enhance aquatic and terrestrial habitats at a landscape scale in southwest Wyoming while facilitating responsible energy development through local collaboration and partnerships. The IA is an integrated synthesis and analysis of WLCI resource values based on best available data and information collected from multiple agencies and organizations. It is a support tool for landscape-scale conservation planning and evaluation, and a data and analysis resource that can be used for addressing specific management questions. The IA analysis was conducted using a Geographic Information System in a raster (that is, a grid) environment using a cell size of 30 meters. To facilitate the data in a regional context, mean values were summarized and displayed at the subwatershed unit (WLCI subwatersheds were subset from the National Hydrography Dataset, Hydrologic Unit Code 12/Level 6). A dynamic mapping platform, accessed via the WLCI webpage at http://www.wlci.gov is used to display the mapped information, and to access underlying resource values that were combined to produce the final mapped results. The raster data used in the IA is provided here for use by interested parties to conduct additional analyses and can be accessed via the WLCI webpage. This data series contains 74 spatial data sets: WLCI subwatersheds (vector) and 73 geotiffs (raster) that are segregated into the major categories of Multicriteria Index (including Resource Index and Condition), Change Agents, and Future Change. The Total Multicriteria Index is composed of the Aquatic Multicriteria Index and the Terrestrial Multicriteria Index. The Aquatic Multicriteria Index is composed of the Aquatic Resource Index and the Aquatic Condition. The Aquatic Resource Index is composed of the following components: Groundwater, Special Management Areas, and Priority Areas. The Aquatic Condition is composed of the following components: Focal Species, Species of Concern, Focal Ecosystems, and Proper Functioning Condition. The Terrestrial Multicriteria Index is composed of the Terrestrial Resource Index and the Terrestrial Condition. The Terrestrial Resource Index is composed of the following components: Special Management Areas, Agriculture, and Priority Areas. The Terrestrial Condition is composed of the following components: Focal Species, Big Game, Species of Concern, Rare Plants, and Focal Ecosystems. The Change Agents are composed the following components: Roads, Energy, Mines, and Urban. The Future Change is composed of the following components: Oil-Gas-Coal, Wind, Minerals, Climate-Temperature, Invasive Species, and Urban. Purpose: The data presented here will be used as a tool to support landscape-scale conservation planning and evaluation by the WLCI community. Specifically this dataset reflects the Integrated Assessment score for each component summarized at the subwatershed level (HUC12/Level 6).

Time period when source material was captured varies by source and is unknown. Last processing for all data sets was November 2011 (see Processing Steps).

Please cite the data set when using this product. Use_Constraints: There are no use constraints for this data set. Please note that this data is designed to be used at a coarse scale. The WLCI is composed of multiple types of land ownership (including federal, state and private entities). This analysis is not intended to highlight private lands; however, all land ownership types were included since this is a landscape scale analysis in line with the mission of the WLCI. In addition, updates are made at irregular intervals by the agencies and organizations from which the data was collected. This product is considered a static data set and should be treated accordingly.
