Project Description:
RMTC created a GIS database of the biological resources of seven U.S. Naval installations on Guam. The final ArcView GIS project file included digital links to a variety of document formats. The Guam Geodetic Datum of 1945 was used as the coordinate system. Imported and new GIS mapping conformed to the latest version of the Tri-Service Spatial Data Standards.
RMTC's work to create the GIS database included:
RMTC was also responsible for developing GIS user manuals and training U.S. Navy users to use the newly-developed GIS database of biological resources.
