Central Appalachian Mine Reforestation Assessment (CAMRA) Tool

With our partners, we developed the Central Appalachian Mine Reforestation Assessment tool, which uses satellite imagery and a new mathematical model to monitor and characterize the state of reclamation and the growth of trees and other vegetation on surface coal mines in Central Appalachia from 1984 to the present.

Fish Habitat Decision Support Tool

This tool provides resource managers and the public with access to the extensive spatial data and results produced from multiple fish habitat assessments. Three main analytical tools—visualization, ranking, and futuring — are combined with intuitive basemaps and mapping features to allow users to explore the details of the fish habitat assessments and perform subsequent analyses.
