Welcome to BAID-IMS…
BAID-IMS is an Internet Map Server designed to support Arctic science with a special focus on the research hubs of Barrow, Atqasuk and Ivotuk on the North Slope of Alaska. BAID-IMS is freely available to scientists, land managers, educators and the local community. Users can navigate to areas of interest and explore or query information about field-based scientific research. Current and historic research sites are shown as points with links to details about project investigators, discipline, funding program, year, related web sites, site photos and other information. BAID-IMS includes satellite imagery and other remote sensing products, topographic maps, land ownership information and local infrastructure that facilitates research and science communication. Users can print or export maps for presentations and export tabular information. BAID-IMS currently includes the locations of over 6000 research plots and instrument locations. This ongoing effort incorporates both new research locations and sampling sites dating back to the 1940s.
