Other Data Clearinghouses <br />NC OneMap is a state clearinghouse for data from a variety of state, county, and federal partners maintained <br />by the North Carolina Center for Geographic Information & Analysis. http: / /www.nconemal2.com/ <br />Data clearinghouses for other federal agencies and programs: <br />USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service http : / /dataVatewa-ynres.usda.gov/ <br />USDA Forest Service http://fsgeodata.is.fed.us /index.html <br />USGS Eastern Geographic Science Center http: / /egsc.usgs.V,ov /science.html <br />U.S. Fish and Wildlife Services http: / /www.fws.Vov /GIS /data /national/ <br />USFWS Southeast Region http: / /www.fws.Vov /southeast /gis/ <br />National Park Service http: / /www.nl2s.Vov /gis /data info/ <br />Other Related Resources and Tools <br />For a list of hydrologic models that have been used to assess climate change impacts can be found in section <br />see Table 4 -1. <br />The National Renewable Energy Laboratory produces maps illustrating renewable resources, including <br />biomass maps, geothermal maps, solar resource maps, and wind resource potential maps. <br />The Tool for Exploratory Landscape Scenario Analysis (TELSA) allows modeling of landscape dynamics <br />in a spatially explicit framework. Model scenarios can include natural processes (e.g. succession and <br />disturbance), as well as management scenarios. Monte -Carlo simulation allows for the exploration of <br />sensitivity and variability in modeled outcomes. <br />http: / /www.essa.com /tools /telsa/index.html <br />The Vegetation Dynamics Development Tool (VDDT) provides a framework for modeling state transitions <br />in vegetation and modeling of scenarios based on succession, management, and disturbance. In combination <br />with TELSA spatially explicit landscape models can be created. <br />httl2://www.essa.com/tools/vddt/index.html <br />Appendix A 173 <br />
