AUTHORS DESCRIPTION: "EPA H2O is a GIS based demonstration tool for assessing ecosystem goods and services (EGS). It was developed as a preliminary assessment tool in support of research being conducted in the Tampa Bay watershed. It provides information, data, approaches and guidance that communities can use to examine alternative land use scenarios in the context of nature’s benefits to the human community. . . EPA H2O allows users for the Tampa Bay estuary and its watershed to: • Gain a greater understanding of the significance of EGS, • Explore the spatial distribution of EGS and other ecosystem features, • Obtain map and summary statistics of EGS production's potential value, • Analyze and compare potential impacts from predicted development scenarios or user specified changes in land use patterns on EGS production's potential value EPA H2O is designed for analyzing data at neighborhood to regional scales.. . The tool is transportable to other locations if the required data are available. . . . |
