<param datatype="String" direction="Input" displayname="Geographic Scale" expression="nhf_wheel_layer | nhf_ring_layer | nhf_hexagon_layer | nhf_cog_layer" name="Geographic_Scale" type="Required">
<dialogReference>&lt;DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"&gt;&lt;DIV&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;The geographic scale references the KBS’s NHF, which consists of hexagons nested within each other. The selected option will be the geographic output layer of this tool. The selectable options (from largest to smallest) includes:Hexagon = 1 squared kilometerCog = 7 squared kilometersWheel = 49 squared kilometersRing = 343 squared kilometers&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/DIV&gt;&lt;/DIV&gt;</dialogReference>

<param datatype="Feature Set" direction="Input" displayname="Geographic Area of Interest" expression="Geographic_Area_of_Interest" name="Geographic_Area_of_Interest" type="Required">
<dialogReference>&lt;DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"&gt;&lt;DIV&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;The input geographic area of interest will query the LSDB based on the NHF overlap with this input parameter. Where the NHF layer intersects with the input geographic area of interest will become the output layer. The associated LDSB tables with the output layer will be produced too.&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/DIV&gt;&lt;/DIV&gt;</dialogReference>

<dialogReference>&lt;DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"&gt;&lt;DIV&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;If turned on, this Boolean will invert the associated selection statement. In other words, the data that does not meet the query requirements will be the output of this tool.&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/DIV&gt;&lt;/DIV&gt;</dialogReference>

<dialogReference>&lt;DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"&gt;&lt;DIV&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;The LSDB tables summary tables to have exported with the geographic layer. This can include:EnergyLandscape and HabitatManagement and ConservationSpecies LocationWeather and Climate&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/DIV&gt;&lt;/DIV&gt;</dialogReference>

<dialogReference>&lt;DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"&gt;&lt;DIV&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;The output ZIP File is the location where the output files will be saved. The files will be automatically formatted based on the geographic scale selected and the selected tables from the selection statements.The geographic layer will be formatted as: “queried_” + [geographic scale] + [Minute_Hour_Day_Month_Year]Queried Geographic Layer Example: “queried_ring_11_33_08_03_2022.shp”The geographic layer will be formatted as: “queried_” + [Table Name] + [Minute_Hour_Day_Month_Year]Queried Table Example: “queried_landscape_and_habitat_11_33_08_03_2022.csv”&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/DIV&gt;&lt;/DIV&gt;</dialogReference>

<summary>&lt;DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"&gt;&lt;DIV&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;The LSDB Select By Geographic Area Of Interest allows users to query data into summary statistics based upon the developed Kansas Biological Survey’s (KBS) nested hexagon framework (NHF) and the Landscape Summary Database (LSDB). The LSDB database contains summaries of data layers of interest to state agencies, private companies, NGO’s, and the public, and is an additive compilation of data layers associated with landscapes, wildlife, energy, weather/climate, and socio-economic data. See the associated LDSB Query Tool Summary for more information.&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/DIV&gt;&lt;/DIV&gt;</summary>
<usage>&lt;DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"&gt;&lt;DIV&gt;&lt;DIV&gt;&lt;P STYLE="margin:0 0 0 0;"&gt;&lt;SPAN STYLE="font-size:12pt"&gt;This tool can generate geographic layers based upon the nested hexagon framework (NHF) with associated summary statistics from the Landscape Summary Database (LSBD). The user selects a desired geographic area of interest from the NHF layers and chooses the LSDB summary tables they wish to have exported along with selected geographic layer. Please use the associated &lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;LSDB Export Selected NHF Layer and Tables Tool &lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;SPAN STYLE="font-size:12pt"&gt;for more information and guidance on using this tool.&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/DIV&gt;&lt;/DIV&gt;&lt;/DIV&gt;</usage>
