Beaver Creek Deer Research, In order to find out the vegetation types preferred by deer in their habitat, the signs of deer activity (namely trails) in the woods were recorded using GPS. This research was performed at the Beaver Creek Field Research Station in Eau Claire County, Wisconsin. Through the research performed at the Field Station, it was found that the deer preferred the areas of land dominated by oak, pine, and maple vegetation.

WISCOMP, We have recently deployed WISCOMP, the WISconsin Commerce Online Mapping Project. WISCOMP evolved from the development of BLIS, the Brownfields Location Information System. The WISCOMP concept is to provide a framework for faster deployment of Commerce Internet mapping applications. WISCOMP and BLIS are based on the Environmental Systems Research Institute.
