Overview

The “select sites” tool enables users to filter by different site characteristics related to the following categories: ownership, land cover, proximity to drainage systems, equity considerations, and sensitive land.

Use this widget to contextualize and explore the underlying layers that inform the “Select Sites” widget.

Interested in comparing sites to your own local data? Upload shapefiles or add layers from your ArcGIS Online account to the map with this widget.

Once you have narrowed down to a subset of sites, export the list to a csv by selecting the “Table” button at the bottom right of the map.

Accompanying this tool is a field survey that allows local staff to take the data exported from this tool and do more in-depth analysis about siting a BMP.

Tool Layout

The app has 3 main panels:

  • The widget panel hosts one of the three main tools (Select Sites, Explore Layers, Add Data) that can be selected using the widget toggle.

  • The map panel displays the potential sites layer (filtered using Select Sites) and any layers that have been turned on in the Explore Layers widget or added in the Add Data widget.

  • The site information panel displays key information about any sites that have been selected in the map panel.

The size of the panels can be adjusted by dragging on the edge to increase/decrease the size.
