Vector Data - Point

Download	Specifications	Description
Download	*Filename:* PointsOfInterest.zip *File Size:* ∼14 KB *Transfer Size:* ∼6 KB *Revision Date:* March 2006	PointsOfInterest is a point shapefile defining the geographic location of the amphitheater, campground, canoe launch, information kiosk, designated overlooks, parking lot, and trail head in the DePauw University Nature Park. This shapefile was generated from GPS points gathered by DePauw GIS Center staff.

Vector Data - Polyline

Download	*Filename:* NPcontour_CI1ft.zip *File Size:* ∼85 MB *Transfer Size:* ∼34 MB *Revision Date:* February 2005	NPcontour_CI1ft is a polyline shapefile defining the topographic contours (with a 1 foot contour interval) within the DePauw University Nature Park. This shapefile was generated by using ESRI's ArcGIS™ Spatial Analyst extension to contour the Nature Park's Digital Elevation Model (DEM).
Download	*Filename:* NPcontour_CI5ft.zip *File Size:* ∼17 MB *Transfer Size:* ∼7 MB *Revision Date:* February 2005	NPcontour_CI5ft is a polyline shapefile defining the topographic contours (with a 5 foot contour interval) within the DePauw University Nature Park. This shapefile was generated by using ESRI's ArcGIS™ Spatial Analyst extension to contour the Nature Park's Digital Elevation Model (DEM).
Download	*Filename:* NPcontour_CI10ft.zip *File Size:* ∼9 MB *Transfer Size:* ∼4 MB *Revision Date:* February 2005	NPcontour_CI10ft is a polyline shapefile defining the topographic contours (with a 10 foot contour interval) within the DePauw University Nature Park. This shapefile was generated by using ESRI's ArcGIS™ Spatial Analyst extension to contour the Nature Park's Digital Elevation Model (DEM).
Download	*Filename:* NPcontour_CI50ft.zip *File Size:* ∼2 MB *Transfer Size:* ∼700 KB *Revision Date:* February 2005	NPcontour_CI50ft is a polyline shapefile defining the topographic contours (with a 50 foot contour interval) within the DePauw University Nature Park. This shapefile was generated by using ESRI's ArcGIS™ Spatial Analyst extension to contour the Nature Park's Digital Elevation Model (DEM).
Download	*Filename:* Hydrology.zip *File Size:* ∼800 KB *Transfer Size:* ∼200 KB *Revision Date:* Spring 2004	Hydrology is a polyline shapefile spatially locating significant water features in the DePauw Nature Park. This shapefile was generated by collecting, spatially referencing, and converting (to shapefile format) the hydrology features contained in the original Nature Park CAD survey data received from Schneider Corporation.
Download	*Filename:* ParkBoundary2006.zip *File Size:* ∼29 KB *Transfer Size:* ∼11 KB *Revision Date:* Spring 2007	ParkBoundary2006 is a polyline shapefile showing the geographic location of the DePauw Nature Park boundary. The previous park boundary shapefile was created from the the original Nature Park CAD survey data received from Schneider Corporation. The current boundary file (ParkBoundary2006) was generated by digitizing a spatially referenced image of the park boundary that included the most recent area additions.
Download	*Filename:* Trails.zip *File Size:* ∼60 KB *Transfer Size:* ∼40 KB *Revision Date:* Spring 2006	Trails is a polyline shapefile showing the geographic location of the DePauw Nature Park walking trails. The file was generated by digitizing the various trails using the Indiana 2005 aerial orthophotography and GPS points gathered by GIS Center staff as guides.

NatureParkBuildings is a polygon shapefile displaying the building footprints of the Ian & Mimi Roland Welcome and Activities Center, the Manning Environmental Field Station, and the Prindle Institute for Ethics. This file was created by digitizing the desired data from spatially referenced CAD architectural plans.

Raster Data

Download	*Filename:* NP2005_FullMosaic.zip *File Size:* ∼800 MB *Transfer Size:* ∼675 MB *Revision Date:* Spring 2006	NP2005_FullMosaic is a mosaic of the sixteen 2005 Indiana aerial orthophotography tiles that show the area in or immediately adjacent to the DePauw Nature Park. The sixteen tiles used to create this raster mosaic are part of the 2005 State-wide Orthophtography Dataset (downloadable from the Indiana Spatial Data Portal) and have a horizontal resolution of 1 foot.
Download	*Filename:* NatureParkDEM.zip *File Size:* ∼31 MB *Transfer Size:* ∼22 MB *Revision Date:* February 2005	NatureParkDEM is a digital elevation model (DEM) of the DePauw Nature Park. The DEM was generated, using ArcGIS™ ArcView 8.0, from the original surveyed contours (contour interval = 1 foot) received in CAD format from Schneider Corporation.
