Purpose & Uses
● Comprehensive interagency database of all WSRs
● Better resolution of geospatial data
(current data is 1:2million; new is 1:24,000)
● Interactive maps

Overview
Tennessee is home to world-class paddling from whitewater to flatwater.
There was a growing demand for a statewide online water trail resource guide
Project was started not knowing who would design or develop it. Started with
State Organization but project was too big and not enough access to data.
![Page 34: National Wild and Scenic Rivers: Geodatabase and Webmaps · Story Map link is live Data is available via ArcGIS online Integrate all webmaps and data into rivers.gov – September](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070917/5fb791846627d561993e3aa2/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
UTC IGTLab Background
UTC IGTLab provides a full software ecosystem
>10 TB of regional spatial data
Server and application development space
Focus in Research and Development
Integration of Scenarios
Planning Tools
Support “One Stop” Information Center
![Page 35: National Wild and Scenic Rivers: Geodatabase and Webmaps · Story Map link is live Data is available via ArcGIS online Integrate all webmaps and data into rivers.gov – September](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070917/5fb791846627d561993e3aa2/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Tennessee Valley Water Trails
UTC was selected due to their access to data and ability to work with state
and federal agencies along with watershed organizations and local non-
profits.
In 2015, the Tennessee Valley Water Trails project began.
Working with Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA), National Park Service, and TN
State Parks.
Collected geospatial data, narrative text, images, and videos from
organizations across the state.

NRRD
Worked with River Management Society throughout the development of the
project.
Began talking about NRRD and integration of TN Water Trail data.
As the NRRD began to grow, the database needed a home.
With the resources and infrastructure available from the UTC IGTLab, it was
decided that we would house the NRRD.
![Page 40: National Wild and Scenic Rivers: Geodatabase and Webmaps · Story Map link is live Data is available via ArcGIS online Integrate all webmaps and data into rivers.gov – September](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070917/5fb791846627d561993e3aa2/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Data Donors and QA/QC
Phase 1:
Organizations with data
that would like to donate
to the NRRD will send
their data to a RMS GIS
Specialist for QA/QC.
The RMS GIS Specialist
performs QA/QC to match
the NRRD schema.
Connected to the UTC
Server, the RMS GIS
Specialist loads the data
into the master database
and publishes to the web.

Data Donors and QA/QC
Phase 2:
Increase organizational use of
NRRD Toolkit/HEM Tool prior
to donation.
Directly load to UTC Server.
Script sorts data into working
or non-working for NRRD
format.
Working data gets checked for
accuracy, Non-working data
gets reformatted for NRRD.
