38725 ACFHP Data Set Published / External 37190 NFHAP Project Completed 2009 The ACFHP database consist of three primary data tables, joined within SQL Server, a relational DBMS: 1. The Bibliographic table provides information on over 500 selected documents and data sources on Atlantic coastal fish species and habitats. 2. The Assessment table provides information on habitat condition indicators, threats, and conservation actions. 3. The Geospatial table provides location references for information recorded in the Bibliography and Assessment tables. In addition, a separate table enables the many-to-many relationship between bibliographic entries and locations. The Atlantic Coastal Fish Habitat Database provides the Atlantic Coastal Fish Habitat Partnership (ACFHP) with the capability to review and summarize existing information on Indicators, Threats, and Conservation Actions, to inform strategic conservation planning for estuarine and marine coastal waters and watersheds. It can also be used for other purposes, including the National Fish Habitat Action Plan (NFHAP) 2010 Assessment. 556 Online Linkage to NCCOS project homepage, which provides links for Tech.

Memo. 103 as: Estuarine Estuarine Drainage Area (EDA) Coastal Drainage Area (CDA) Marine-State Marine-Federal Estuarine: A coastal waterbody which is semi-enclosed, and in which salinity can vary between fresh and marine, typically extending from head-of-tide on the landward side, to the outer mouth of the waterbody on the seaward side. For the purposes of this project, the set 78 estuarine waterbodies is taken from NOAA's Coastal Assessment Framework. | Estuarine Drainage Area (EDA): An Estuarine Drainage Area (EDA) is that component of an estuary?s entire watershed that empties directly into the estuary. EDAs may be composed of all or part of a single or several USGS hydrologic units and include all or part of the USGS cataloging unit (HUC-8) containing the most upstream extent of tidal influence (head-of-tide). For the purposes of this project, the set 74 EDAs is taken from NOAA's Coastal Assessment Framework. | Coastal Drainage Area (CDA): A Coastal Drainage Area (CDA) is defined as that component of an entire watershed that meets the following three criteria: 1) it is not part of any EDA; 2) it drains directly into an ocean, an estuary, or the Great Lakes; and 3) it is composed only of the downstream-most HUC in which the head-of-tide is found. In other words, CDAs are land areas that do not drain to a particular estuary, and in some cases are represented as multiple polygons within a state. For the purposes of this project, the set 19 CDAs is taken from NOAA's Coastal Assessment Framework. | Marine-State: Nearshore marine waters, within individual states' defined territorial sea limit of 3 nautical miles.

Contact Tyler Christensen (NOS) for details. 2017-09-13 Partial upload of Spatial Info section only. 2017-11-01 Replaced entire Lineage section to populate new Source Contribution field. 2018-02-08 Partial upload of Positional Accuracy fields only. Data tables were developed in Microsoft Excel, and ported to SQL Server for web development. Spatial framework was developed in ArcGIS, and exported to GoogleMaps for web development. The Bibliographic Table records standard bibliographic information for over 500 reference documents and data sets, along with spatial footprint (state, waterbody, etc.), web availability, and species and habitat types covered. The Assessment Table records relavent information on habitat condition indicators, threats, and conservation actions from sources identified in the Bibliographic table. Information is recorded strictly "as reported", it is intended to accurately reflect the content of the source documents, but therefore is only as accurate as those source documents. The Geospatial Table contains commonly-accepted names and general locations of coastal and estuarine waterbodies and watersheds, and are presumed to be accurate. | Quantitative Value: attribute values as reported from source documents | Quantitative Test Explanation: no testing of attribute accuracy Locations are identified by a defined set of place names, roughly to the precision of an individual estuary (e.g. Chincoteague Bay) or watershed (e.g. USGS HUC-8). To represent these place names as points, centroids were taken of their polygons.; Quantitative Value: 10000.0 meters, Test that produced the value: Locations are identified by a defined set of place names, roughly to the precision of an individual estuary (e.g. Chincoteague Bay) or watershed (e.g. USGS HUC-8). The project team reviewed 500+ documents and data sets to contribute to the ACFHP Assessment of Existing Information. The selected sources are considered to be a representative sample, but by no means an exhaustive inventory of all potentially relavent source documents. Documents such as Habitat Assessments and Conservation Plans were carefully reviewed, and policy-relevant habitat assessment information (indicators, threats, and actions) was recorded "as reported" in a separate table, linked via waterbody number and reference number. MMS/NOAA Multipurpose Marine Cadastre U.S. Minerals Management Service and NOAA's Coastal Services Center 2008-01-01 Discrete 2008 http://marinecadastre.gov/ The Multipurpose Marine Cadastre provided boundary layers for delineating marine waters for the ACFHP Assessment of Existing Information project. This was added to the estuarine and watershed polygons which were derived from NOAA's Coastal Assessment Framework. The boundary layers derived from the Multipurpose Marine Cadastre enabled the ACFHP Spatial Framework to extend into nearshore State and offshore Federal marine waters. The Multipurpose Marine Cadastre is a joint project of the U.S. Minerals Management Service (MMS) and NOAA's Coastal Services Center. | Source Geospatial Form: vector digital data | Type of Source Media: online NOAA's Coastal Assessment Framework NOAA NOS Special Projects Office 1999-01-01 Discrete 1999 NOAA's Coastal Assessment Framework (CAF) provides most of the spatial reference information for the ACFHP Assessment of Existing Information project. A GIS base layer was developed in ArcGIS, subdivided into four zones - watersheds, estuaries, nearshore marine (State waters), and offshore marine (Federal waters). It is based on NOAA's Coastal Assessment Framework, including estuarine waterbodies and their associated watersheds. The Coastal Assessment Framework is a set of digital GIS layers, with lineage back to an earlier data atlas known as the National Estuarine Inventory (NEI) (NOAA 1985). The NEI and CAF further subdivide estuarine waters into salinity zones (tidal fresh, mixing, and seawater), but these subdivisions were not used for the ACFHP spatial framework. The spatial framework was extended to include State and Federal marine waters using boundary layers from MMS/NOAA's Multipurpose Marine Cadastre. | Source Geospatial Form: vector digital data | Type of Source Media: online 1 The GIS base layer was developed in ArcGIS, and is subdivided into four zones - watersheds, estuaries, nearshore marine, and offshore marine. It is based on NOAA's Coastal Assessment Framework (CAF), including estuarine waterbodies and their associated watersheds.

The NEI and CAF further subdivide estuarine waters into salinity zones (tidal fresh, mixing, and seawater), but these subdivisions were not used for the ACFHP spatial framework. Additional polygons were added for both State and Federal marine waters, based on legally-vetted boundary layers in the Multipurpose Marine Cadastre (MMC). State waters extend to the 3 nautical mile limit, and Federal waters extend to the 200 nmi Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ). Regional breaks were selected at Cape Cod, Cape Hatteras, and Cape Canaveral, creating four regions: North Atlantic, Mid-Atlantic, South Atlantic, and South Florida, consistent with generally accepted biogeographic classifications. The estuarine, watershed, and marine polygons were merged into a single polygon layer - 195 polygons total, preserving their attributes for region, state, zone (watershed, estuarine, marine), and waterbody name. 2009-01-01T00:00:00 NOAA's Coastal Assessment Framework 40912 Entity 40911 Entity 40913 Entity gov.noaa.nmfs.inport:38725 Tyler Christensen 2017-04-05T12:48:27 SysAdmin InPortAdmin 2025-05-15T19:16:11 2018-02-08 National Centers for Coastal Ocean Science NCCOS 1002 Public No No 2018-02-08 1 Year 2019-02-08
