Abstract
  • The Klamath Basin of Oregon and California has been the scene of extensive ecosystem restoration activities in recent years. The need for restoration is based on changes in land use that have adversely affected water quality and wildlife habitat. Many different kinds of restoration projects are occurring at many different scales. Many groups involved have used Geographic Information Systems (GIS), including the Nature Conservancy and the Bureau of Land Management Multi-media cartography based on an Internet site has potential to be an effective means of monitoring conditions, sharing information and integrating data from multiple scales and sources. This project is an example of Web-based multi-media cartography. The structure and design of the web site are discussed, as are the steps in designing and producing a multi-media map. A strong case is made for the effectiveness of using web-based multi-media cartography in Klamath Basin restoration. Its advantages include the ability to integrate data from multiple scales and sources, including GPS points, digital GIS data, and photographs. It also allows users without cartographic knowledge or software to access geographic information.
