The AZSITE manager will be on parental leave 9/16 through 9/27. From 9/30 through 11/22 he will be working half-time while on parental leave. AZSITE GIS Technician Ellie Renteria should be your primary point of contact for questions related to AZSITE data and applications between 9/16 and 9/27. She will continue to focus on data uploads and fixes, and will also process data clip requests.
Any problems related to application functionality will be forwarded to our server management/development team at ASU Geospatial Research and Solutions

Sadly, Carrie Schmidt will be leaving the role of AZSITE GIS Technician this week. Carrie has been integral to AZSITE's operation since 2020 and will be sorely missed. Some of her notable accomplishments include her work processing the backlog (now nearly complete) and developing the new public mapping app. Thank you, Carrie!

Over the past 2 months we have uploaded 9 projects (8 ASM backlog, 2 USFWS), 63 sites (36 ASM backlog, 26 ASU, 1 USFWS), 23 ASM site updates (22 basic backlog and 1 full), 39 data fixes (including ASM and MNA site boundary corrections, quad boundary additions/corrections, missing documents), 31 site cards (7 ASM, 24 ASU), 1 ASM PRF, and 24 ASM reports.
The land ownership dataset provided on the Mercator server has also been updated to reflect the latest data from the BLM. The new web mapping application utilizes the BLM dataset directly; the legacy mapping application utilizes the Mercator feature service (just updated) for queries, but symbolizes the data using a tile cache that is not being updated. This may result in a conflict between what you see on the screen and what you see when selecting or identifying features.
We have created a Data Fix Request web form. This is currently accessible from the pop-ups for Sites, Projects, and Newly Recorded ASM Sites in the new web mapping application. Corrections to additional types of AZSITE data can also be requested using this form. We will be integrating it into the attribute search pages soon.
