This grant is for advancing the National Wetlands Inventory (NWI) in Kansas. Its primary objective is to create comprehensive digital wetlands habitat data for 317 specific quadrangles across the state. This involves scanning, digitizing, orthorectifying, vectorizing, and attributing existing wetland delineation photo overlays or mylar separates. A crucial component is also developing a robust protocol to identify and categorize potentially restorable wetlands within Kansas. This project aims to enhance environmental data infrastructure, supporting future conservation and restoration efforts throughout the region.
