Western Kitsap Nearshore Inventory Maps and Data Page
During the Summer and early Fall of 2008, Kitsap County field crews inventoried the Western saltwater shoreline and collected a variety of information concerning environmental stressors and conditions.
 
The unit of division of the shoreline is described as a Reach, and one part of the inventory involved measuring a number of different factors at the midpoint of each of these reaches.
 
Other features were noted as encountered, such as armoring, outfalls, etc.
The map below shows the locations and length of each Reach, and in following sections are maps of some of the more important aspects of these Reaches, inventoried either by the mid-reach, or as the feature were encountered.

There is also a Fact Sheet about the data collected, and downloadable files for your use in Google-Earth. They are in KML format, so that you can save them to your own local drive, and access the data as needed.

Shoreline Reaches
The unit of division for the shoreline is known as a Reach, and was inventoried at its midpoint for several different shoreline conditions. They vary in length from 169 feet to 2.74 miles and are based upon drift cells and geomorphology. They have a median value of 1,112 feet.
