Tampa Bay Integrated Science Pilot Study:
|
|
Interactive Mapping System (IMS)
|
|
|
When users access the IMS website they will see a Tampa Bay map showing broad-scale layers which serves as an overview map of the entire project extent.
Users can now choose from the three study areas and zoom in to see larger-scale datasets. Geographic features can be identified by clicking on the map or by performing a search on the attribute table of the dataset.
There are situations where the IMS application will not be sufficient for some data analyses. Users will then need to download the spatial datasets to their local machines. The IMS interface will provide mechanisms to display metadata and to download the base datasets.

The Tampa Bay Pilot Study IMS requires users to have an Internet connection and an updated Web browser. (Internet Explorer 5 to 5.5 or Netscape Navigator 4.6 to 4.7 on Intel-PC platforms).
