Abstract
⺠A simple GIS tool was developed for transforming total station data into real world coordinates. ⺠The transformation preserves the relative accuracy of the total station survey. ⺠Real world coordinates for the transformation can be acquired from cost-effective handheld GPS. ⺠The interactive tool allows visualization of survey data in a webGIS (e.g., Google Earth). ⺠The tool has been tested by 12 crews at 364 sites in a new stream monitoring program.
