The LakeRim Web site is a collaborative effort supported by federal, state, and local entities. The maps on this site are only as good as the underlying GIS layers. We need local data sets to make this map as good as it can be. If you would like to contribute data to the LakeRim website, please contact us and start a dialog about data sharing.
