Oregon Watershed Restoration Inventory (OWRI)

Sep 18, 2020 (Last modified Oct 20, 2020)
Description:
OWEB has been acquiring watershed restoration information since 1997 to track on-the-ground efforts to restore aquatic habitat and water quality conditions in Oregon. The specific objectives of the OWRI are as follows: " synthesize and evaluate the types of restoration activities implemented within watersheds and statewide; " document voluntary efforts in the public and private sectors to restore watershed conditions; " provide information (in database and GIS formats) to watershed councils and other local groups to support watershed assessments and future restoration planning and prioritization; " estimate the proportion of restoration activities meeting state habitat restoration guidelines; and " provide information to support effectiveness monitoring of regional and statewide restoration activities. This dataset covers the years 1995-2016.

The Oregon Watershed Restoration Inventory database (OWRI) contains information about completed restoration projects that were implemented in Oregon beginning in 1995. The complete dataset consists of point, line, and polygon features. Data for projects not funded by the Oregon Watershed Enhancement Board (OWEB) are acquired through a voluntary "Annual Call for Data"; while reporting is required for projects funded by OWEB and Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife R and E grant programs. Restoration practitioners submit a standardized reporting form and attach project location maps. Once acquired, data sheets and maps are each assigned a unique project identification number. This number links spatial project data with tabular project data that are stored in a relational database using Microsoft SQL software.
