Abstract

The major goal of the Active Channel Mapping project is to produce an accurate and current dataset of stream channels within the watersheds feeding Puget Sound. Additionally, I also had some personal goals while working on the project. One important goal was maintaining my familiarity with ArcGIS Pro, as I took the core GIS classes last year and would otherwise not be working with the software this year. I also wanted to gain experience performing GIS related tasks within a professional work environment, as my prior experience had been limited to taking classes in an academic context. One important facet of this is following good data management practices, including proper file naming and organization to efficiently access, modify, and share data as necessary. Finally, I also hoped to gain greater familiarity with remote sensing techniques and remotely sensed data.
