Description: The Wetland Indicators Map shows soils mapped by the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service in the drainage classes of somewhat poorly, poorly and very poorly drained soils. Soils mapped within these drainage classes are soil types typically found within areas designated as wetlands. Therefore, this map layer can be used to identify potential wetlands.

Description: This layer displays the location of features too small to delineate at the mapping scale, but they are large enough and contrasting enough to significantly influence use and management. The soil map units are linked to attributes in the National Soil Information System relational database, which gives the proportionate extent of the component soils and their properties. The official definition of a wetspot as noted in the NRCS Soil Survey Handbook is: "A somewhat poorly drained to very poorly drained soil at least two drainage classes wetter than the named soils in the surrounding map unit. Typically less than 4 acres." For more information, see: ftp://dnrftp01.wi.gov/geodata/metadata/nrcs_soil_wetspots.pdf.

Description: Wisconsin wetland waters includes those surface waters that are hydrologically connected to ecologically significant coastal wetlands of the Great Lakes or federal or state designated study areas. These are waters in areas identified in a special area management plan (SAMP) or special wetland inventory study (SWIS) under Chapter NR 103.04, Wis. Adm. Code. (Special area management plans exist for the City of Superior, Douglas County and Chiwaukee Prairie, Kenosha County. A Special Wetland Inventory Study exists for the area bordering the bay of Green Bay.)

Description: This digital dataset is a vector representation of potentially restorable wetlands. Currently the extent of the data covers the Rock River Basin. More watersheds will be added in the future. The source data includes the United States Department of Agriculture - National Agriculture Statistics Service's 1:100,000-Scale 2006 Cropland Data Layer, the Soil Map Units of the Soil Survey Geographic (SSURGO) database, and the Digital Wisconsin Wetland Inventory.

Description: These are voluntary wetland restorations, enhancements, rehabilitations and creations conducted by DNR and Federal staff for private landowners. Techniques include scrapes, berms, ditch plugs, tile breaks, etc. The information collected includes location, date of completion, a description of the restoration (area in acres, technique used, and wetland type), and financial information (partners, money, contracts, funding programs, etc).

Description: This dataset is an extract of spatial and limited tabular data from the NRCS national soils database. The data is housed at WDNR, but is updated occasionally when NRCS makes new soil survey area data available. When you identify a soil polygon, the "Link to NRCS Soil Report" in the identify report will send a request to an NRCS server for more detailed information on the particular soil type you identified. The soil report you receive will be in PDF format. The NRCS server runs slowly under heavy load, so it may take a few minutes for the report to be generated.

Description: This map layer is meant to assist grant applicants for the Wisconsin Wetland Conservation Trust (WWCT) State Lands Grant program. Grant applicants must be 501(c)(3) organizations. Projects for the State Lands Grant program must be completed on DNR properties. All proposed project sites must be ground-truthed to determine if the project area does contain restorable wetlands consistent with the expectations of any wetland mitigation site in Wisconsin.
