CERCA's Interactive Cowichan Estuary Map
A Google image of the estuary and CERCA's estuary "Habitat Map" were used as base for the "Interactive Estuary Map" produced by Tristan Douglas under his 2020 PICS's Internship with CERCA. This interactive map provides links to reports and information on completed and on-going CERCA projects in the estuary, also showing geo-referenced sample sites related to different projects for future reference and monitoring purposes.
How to use the interactive map: https://arcg.is/0Sf0He
All map layers can be toggled on/off in the content menu (left hand bar), and the habitat legend with colour-coded habitat types can be viewed in the "legend" tab.
Specific information on CERCA projects and sample sites are found by clicking on a symbol displayed on the map which opens a window with a link to the information of interest.
The map will be updated periodically with new information becoming available.
