Which ShapeFile and Attributes Contain BRAT outputs? #283

Closed philipbaileynar closed 5 years ago

philipbaileynar commented 5 years ago

@wally-mac can you please specify which ShapeFile and attribute contains the following three BRAT outputs (for the web map):

Existing dam capacity
Historic dam capacity
Beaver management

Hopefully these are three separate attributes on a single ShapeFile. If they are not, can you also provide the attribute that I can use to join the output ShapeFiles together.

My goal is to produce a single ShapeFile with four attributes; the three above plus some unique feature ID.

@mhallerud, could you please take care of @philipbaileynar 's request above? Thanks

mhallerud commented 5 years ago

@philipbaileynar Existing and historic dam capacity are found in the combined capacity model shapefile. There are two fields for existing dam capacity, oCC_EX which represents estimated dams per kilometer and mCC_EX_CT which represents the estimated number of dams on the given reach. Beaver management outputs are all found in the conservation restoration model shapefile and those fields include oPBRC_UI which corresponds to risk of undesirable dams (i.e., risk of infrastructure damage), oPBRC_UD which corresponds to unsuitable or limited dam building opportunities, and oPBRC_CR which corresponds to conservation restoration opportunities. The symbology for these fields can be found on the Code page in the BRATSymbology folder.

@mhallerud, thanks. For @philipbaileynar can you please clarify what field the historic capacity is.

mhallerud commented 5 years ago

@wally-mac @philipbaileynar Historic dam capacity is oCC_HPE for the density and mCC_Hpe_CT for the count. We focus on the density rather than the count, but just in case that's something you're interested in those mCC fields are the ones to look for.

@philipbaileynar These links may help if you have further questions about the fields in BRAT outputs:

Thanks @mhallerud

Can you confirm that the SegID field uniquely identifies the same feature across all output ShapeFiles?

My intent is to join the necessary output ShapeFiles on the SegID field and then produce a single ShapeFile with the following attributes:

SegID
SegLen
oCC_EX - dams per kilometer
mCC_EX_CT - dams on the given reach
oPBRC_UI - risk of undesirable dams
oPBRC_UD - unsuitable or limited dam building opportunities
oPBRC_CR - conservation restoration opportunities
oCC_HPE - Historic dam capacity density
mCC_Hpe_CT - Historic dam capacity count

mhallerud commented 5 years ago

@philipbaileynar The conservation restoration output should already have all fields from previous outputs copied over. If you do join shapefiles anyways, I would use the ReachID field as that is guaranteed to be unique. I think SegID is pulled over from the NHD data which could lead to issues.

philipbaileynar commented 5 years ago

I have searched around and I don't see several of the attributes listed above. I also don't see ReachID... I'm going to close this issue and reopen a new one with a different slant on this request.
