1) Integrated reports,
catalogs, multi-feature data sets, and internet mapping sites
Many existing reports
have synthesized monitoring and analyses results from different studies
to address one or several aspects of aquatic ecosystems. These
reports can provide both general context setting information and specific
recommendations for shoreline management. There are
on-line data
catalogs that serve as a clearinghouse for data, and
internet
mapping sites that provide users who lack GIS software the opportunity
to view data.

Maps,
photos, satellite imagery and monitoring station data provide information
that may be fundamental to assessing the status of shoreline ecological
functions. Many existing data sets contain attributes that
can be extracted separately or together to address shoreline issues.
