"This report presents information and conclusions on the Alaska Wetlands GATF Pilot Project. This report was a collaborative effort of several agencies and was made possible by the Intelligence Community's Environmental Program, Government Applications Task Force (EP/GATF) and the Civil Applications Committee (CAC). The report focuses on procedures used by the Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) and the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) to employ Intelligence Community (IC) National Systems imagery for inventorying wetlands, documenting wetland trends (losses and gains), and identifying boundaries of hydrographic features.

The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service has been conducting the National Wetlands Inventory for over 25 years. The NWI Program has produced wetland maps for 91% (78% final) of the lower 48 states, all of Hawaii, and 35% of Alaska. Wetlands are classified according to the Service's official wetland classification system (Cowardin et al. 1979). This classification describes wetlands by ecological system (Marine, Estuarine, Lacustrine, Riverine, and Palustrine), by subsystem (e.g., water depth, exposure to tides), class (vegetative life form or substrate type), subclass, water regimes (hydrology), water chemistry (pH and salinity), and special modifiers (e.g., alterations by humans). The maps have been converted to digital data for 47% of the lower 48 states and 18% of Alaska. The availability of digital data and geographic information system (GIS) technology make it possible to use NWI data for various geospatial analyses.
