Description of Example Analysis with the High Impact Targeting (HIT) System Use of the High Impact Targeting (HIT) GIS Web-accessible System is demonstrated in the following figures. Over the web, sediment risk maps can be examined and zeroed in on to locate high potential sediment delivery sources (fields). Segment A shows a roughly 30 square mile area of watershed that can be examined to rapidly locate and magnify high risk contributing areas. Segment B shows an enlarged map area while C shows further enlargement with a photographic overlay of the area. Segment D shows this resolution with the photo overlayed with the sediment risk map. Specific problem areas can be interpreted from segment E by overlaying the sediment risk map over the photograph. Segment F shows contour lines and three example areas of high sediment delivery. Thus, a watershed can very rapidly be analyzed and high risk sediment contributing fields identified. |
