1. General Description of Data to be Managed

1.1. Name of the Data, data collection Project, or data-producing Program:
Aleutian Islands Coastal Resources Inventory and Environmental Sensitivity Maps: VOLCANOS (Volcano Points)
1.2. Summary description of the data:

This data set contains point locations of active volcanoes as compiled by Motyka et al., 1993. Eighty-nine volcanoes with eruptive phases in the Quaternary are mapped as points centered in the active caldera or volcano summit. Volcanoes with a number of satellite vents and/or cones distributed around the main caldera or summit are given a unique identifier so it is clear that geothermal activity is likely to be found away from the point on the map. Different volcanic morphologies (Strato, Composite, Sheild) and eruptive histories are not noted in the digital data set, though this information was originally included in the Motyka et al. publication.This data set comprises a portion of the Environmental Sensitivity Index (ESI) data for Aleutians East Borough and Aleutians West Coastal Resource Service Area (CRSA). These data identify the marine and coastal environments and wildlife. The ESI data include information for three main components: shoreline habitats, sensitive biological resources, and human-use resources.

5. Data Lineage and Quality

NOAA has issued Information Quality Guidelines for ensuring and maximizing the quality, objectivity, utility, and integrity of information which it disseminates.

5.1. Processing workflow of the data from collection or acquisition to making it publicly accessible
(describe or provide URL of description):

Process Steps:

  • 2001-11-01 00:00:00 - In Motyka et al.'s 1993 Alaska Department of Natural Resources (DNR) report, "Geothermal Resources of the Aleutian Arc," a table of 89 volcanoes with known Quaternary eruptions is provided. The table includes name, eruptive history, composition, morphology, and location of each volcano in the Aleutians Arc. Name and location information was entered into a .dbf file, imported into ArcInfo, and overlaid atop previously scanned and georeferenced 1:250,000 USGS basemaps. Each point representing a caldera or volcanic summit location, and having satellite cone and/or vent activity, was given an Identifier "P" in the attribute table.
5.1.1. If data at different stages of the workflow, or products derived from these data, are subject to a separate data management plan, provide reference to other plan:
Always left blank

An ArcView ESI project and ESI_Viewer product are also included on the distribution CDs for ease of use of the ESI data. The database files are distributed both in the NOAA standard relational database format (see NOAA Technical Memorandum NOS ORCA 115) and in a simplified desktop flat file format. This metadata document includes information on both of these database formats.;
