Why do you feel this application needs what you're requesting?

@JCastleton has expressed frustration in having to package up the data for this application manually for people that call-in requesting it. Currently, we are pointing people to the SGID hosted by the UGRC, but it sounds like it is not as current as the data in this application.

Describe the solution you'd like and why it builds value

Short Term: Package up and offer a .zip download of the most current data that feeds the app.

Long Term: Provide tool that allows user to download specific portions of the map.

What impact will this new functionality have on this application's audience?

Users won't have to call-in for the data, and Jessica won't have to manually package it for them.

How Urgent is this?

@jjhi11 I placed a zipped gdb of the Hazards Final LIVE geodatabase at "\geology.utah.gov\www\html\docs\zip\Geologic_Hazards_Geodatabase.gdb.zip"

@JCastleton let me know if you have a writeup that you would like to include with the downloadable geodatabase. This is not imperative, but if you want to include something that provides information on feature classes or field names we can. Any included text will need to go through review.

Thank you @marthajensen for packing that up.

@JCastleton - Like Martha said, I think a short write-up to accompany the geodatabase would be helpful for end-users. The table that provides the text for the "Layer Information" button in the application may be a good, already-reviewed file to include. What are your thoughts on that?

@jjhi11

Will you please add a link to Martha's geodatabase .zip file in the Database Contents panel?

Here is what I suggest for the Database Content panel:

Instead of: "The database for the Utah Geologic Hazards Portal contains geologic hazard information and data from the Utah Geological Survey (UGS) and other sources. The database is periodically updated to incorporate the results of new mapping. Detailed geologic hazard mapping is available for limited areas and for specific hazards in Utah and additional mapping is ongoing.

The Utah Quaternary Fault and Fold Database exists as an attributed geographic information system (GIS) feature class in the State Geographic Information Database (SGID), and is available through the Utah Automated Geographic Reference Center (AGRC)."

Below is an attributed geographic information system (GIS), file geodatabase of the data.

The downloadable geodatabase has been moved to: \geology.utah.gov\www\html\apps\geohaz\appfiles\Geologic_Hazards_Geodatabase.gdb.zip

@marshallrobinson please review

marshallrobinson commented 1 year ago

Looks good to me. Go ahead and push it live. Thanks

Download wasn't working, so I moved the data to \geology.utah.gov\www\html\docs\zip .. Now the download works

jjhi11 commented 1 year ago

thanks
