This week I acquired the data to create a layer of the land use for the properties surrounding the Kromma Kill watershed. I am still working on how to best illustrate the data within ArcMap, but by next week I hope to have a draft map. Because I do not have the watershed boundary information, I am unsure of the are that should be included in the land use characteristics. Tomorrow or this week I plan on receiving the data to create the layers for watershed boundaries, river channels, as well as topography. After I create the draft map for the land use characteristics, I plan on meeting with my client and get her feedback on the map. Below is the map that I am currently working on to illustrate land use characteristics. It is far from finished, but the red point indicates where the lab on water quality is conducted along the Kromma Kill.
