Upon reaching the water source, the PIC should survey the water and surrounding area for suitability. Invasive species information is included. These data identify lakes and sections of rivers that may be suitable for use by water scooper aircraft (e.g., Fire Boss, CL-415). Upon reaching the water source, the PIC should survey the water and surrounding area for suitability. There are confirmed sites (known to have been use by aircraft in the past) as well as lakes that may be usable based on their size. Users should be aware that the source of the waterbody polygons was NHD and as such, there may be errors. Invasive species information is included.

Unknown, errors likely exist in the dataset. Unknown, errors likely exist in the dataset. Only data for Alaska included. Only polygons with a convex hull length of at least 1 mile are included. Unknown, errors likely exist in the dataset. Using the "Minimum Bounding Coordinate" tool in ArcCatalog, identify those lakes/ponds with a convex hull length of equal to or greater than 1 mile in length. Note that the convex hull does not take into account for the presence of holes in the polygon (e.g. islands). The length of 1 miles was selected after conversations with the Air Attack Manager. Added new fields to the feature class including Aviation Sectional, Quad, Zone, Latitude and Longitude, Notes, Invasive Species, Depth, and Estimated length. Thus one should assume that the usable length of the waterbody is less that what is expressed in the ''estimated length field". Used the "Convert Coordinate Notation" tool in ArcCatalog to create a point feature class that expresses location in Degree Decimal Minutes. The length of 1 miles was selected after conversations with the Air Attack Manager. Unknown National Hydrography Dataset, Alaska.
