Extractions: American Geography MAP T he Appalachian Uplands, stretching from New York to Alabama, and the area of the Ozark-Ouachita mountains are separated by some 400 kilometers of land. They are actually two parts of a single physiographic province that have a strong topographic similarity and an unusually close association between topography and human settlement. Early settlers, when they reached the shores of colonial America, heard tales of a vast range of high mountains to the west. As they moved into those mountains, they discovered that their elevation had been exaggerated. Only in a few small areas do the Appalachians or Ozarks approach the dramatic vistas so common in the West. Nevertheless, most who concern themselves with such questions would agree that much of the Appalachian and Ozark topography should be called mountainous. Local relief is greater than 500 meters in many areas, and it is sometimes greater than 1,000 meters. Slopes are often steep. The human geography of Appalachia remains closely intertwined with its topography. Without the mountains, the area would merely be a part of several adjoining areas, such as the Deep South. With them, Appalachia and the Ozarks exist as a distinctive and identifiable American region (

Data Sharing With ArcIMS Metadata Services kentucky s geography Network (KYGEONET) is a data clearinghouse that makes a by the kentucky Department for Fish and Wildlife hosts data for cities, http://www.esri.com/news/arcuser/1002/kygeonet.html
Extractions: By Kent Anness, GIS Manager for the Kentucky Water Resource Information System For several years, the Commonwealth of Kentucky has benefited from a wide variety of geospatial data holdings and an active GIS community that shares, utilizes, and maintains the data for the benefit of all users. Most of these datasets are accessible through Web sites created by the Kentucky Office of Geographic Information (KYOGI), Kentucky Geological Survey (KGS), Kentucky Water Resource Information System (WRIS), and Kentucky Natural Resource and Environmental Protection Cabinet (NREPC). However, none of these Web sites have all the data nor do they offer keyword or geographic search capabilities. There had to be an easy way to make this wealth of data more accessible to the Kentucky GIS, engineering, planning, and research communities. From the Metadata Explorer Web page, data can be located by keyword search, geographic extent, content type, and content theme. Several state agencies were actively maintaining metadata for the geospatial data available on the Web, and much of this work was being done using the ArcCatalog application in ArcGIS and other FGDC-compliant metadata tools. In addition, there were several ArcIMS services up and running and a wide array of static map images that could be included. Bringing all this rich content together under one metadata service was the solution and Kentucky's Geography Network (KYGEONET) was born.

Wyoming Lesson Plans Please note that with regard to lesson plans dealing with anthropology, archaeology, indigenous people, ancient civilizations, history, etc, there may be some cross-over and blurring of lines between the topics. For example, a lesson plan dealing with archaeology is automatically dealing with an anthropological subject. A lesson plan dealing with indigenous people is also automatically dealing with anthropology and any of them may, or may not, be dealing with history or ancient civilizations. While every attempt will be made to keep the topic lines as 'clean' as possible, be aware this may not always be possible. Appropriate grade or age levels are included with the lesson plans. The number of lesson plans available online for this topic is enormous. This site can not and does not index all lesson resources. That would be impossible, as sites appear and disappear with astonishing rapidity. The following provides some idea of what is available and will hopefully be a good starting point.

Admitted into the Union in 1792, Kentucky is the 15th state and the first state west of the Appalachian Mountains. It is known as the "Bluegrass State" because of the blue blossoms of the lush grass around Lexington. Kentucky is one of the border states that lie between the North and the South. Rich tobacco fields and champion race horses have long been symbols of Kentucky. Today, Kentucky is associated with coal mines, horse farms ,and racing. Each May, huge crowds in Louisville thrill to the excitement of the Kentucky Derby horse race, America's most prestigious horse race. Visitors to Kentucky may choose from many scenic attractions, recreational facilities and historic sites.

City (1990 pop. 18,871), seat of Campbell co., N Ky., on the Ohio River opposite Cincinnati and on the east bank of the Licking River opposite Covington; laid out 1791, inc. as a city 1835. It has steel and clothing industries and a brewery. Newport was a station on the Underground Railroad , and Kentucky's only antislavery newspaper was edited there in the 1850s. City (1990 pop. 28,227), seat of Newport co., SE Rhode Island, on Aquidneck (also called Rhode) Island; settled 1639, inc. 1784. A port of entry, the city's economy formerly revolved chiefly around the many naval installations there; the closure of U.S. navy facilities has created significant unemployment. Also important are the tourist industry, educational facilities, fishing, and the manufacture of electrical appliances and electronic devices. Newport hosts yacht races, and it was the site of the America 's Cup races until the early 1980s. Tennis was popularized there; the National Tennis Hall of Fame is in the Newport casino. The Newport Jazz Festival was held there until 1971, but other music and dance fests continue. The city is the seat of Salve Regina College, the U.S. Naval War College, and other naval training schools. Newport Bridge (1969) spans the east passage of Narragansett Bay, linking the city with Jamestown.
