successful conservation projects. ACD is equipped to complete a variety of <br />inventory projects, having many years of aerial photos, GPS equipment, <br />GIS software and the expertise to use them. ACD staff engage in routine <br />inventories and updates while also tackling 'once in a career' efforts like the <br />geologic atlas. <br />Aquatic Invasive Species (AIS) — ACD provides inventory services to map <br />AIS on Lake George and as the foundation of an early detection program <br />for the Coon Creek Watershed District. <br />�r �S'k�l R <br />Shoreland Photo Inventory — Staff will conduct a photo <br />T F. <br />inventory of lake shorelines using a 360-degree camera. <br />The photos will be uploaded to Google, where they can be <br />viewed by the public similar to StreetView.

The timing of aerial photo flights is often not known <br />beforehand; as such, this activity will be opportunistic. <br />CLEAN Wetland Floristic Quality — Complete vegetation plot <br />N17 it assays in conjunction with wetland hydrology monitoring <br />1.16A( I sites to determine the temporal relationship between <br />fluctuations in hydrophytic vegetation and measured hydrology at the <br />wetland boundary. <br />ANALYSES <br />ACD staff conducts natural resource analyses at varying scales to diagnose <br />the reason for problems and identify management strategies. Most of these <br />efforts are done under contract with local and state funding partners to <br />achieve their goals. <br />Water Resources Almanac — Each year ACD staff complete a water <br />resources almanac to summarize the year's monitoring data and provide <br />rudimentary analysis of resource condition and trends. <br />C L F. v , Campus Groundwater Conservation Planning (CGCP) — <br />He1�7£R <br />r j£ CGCP involves development and refinement of <br />procedures to identify water conservation measures on <br />campuses. In 2018 the protocol was finalized. In 2019 each of the 11 metro <br />districts completed at least one analysis on a campus. In 2020 additional <br />33 <br />
