40471 Long Island Sound 2016 HYDRO LINES Data Set Published / External 46646 Long Island Sound, 2016 Project Completed 2016 This data set contains vector lines representing coastal hydrography features that are not captured in the HYDROP polygon data layer. The features found in the HYDROL data layer are breakwaters, docks, groins, jetties, and piers. This data set is a portion of the ESI data for North New York, Long Island Sound. As a whole, the ESI data characterize the marine and coastal environments and wildlife by their sensitivity to spilled oil, and include information for three main components: shoreline habitats, sensitive biological resources, and human-use resources. See also the HYDROP (Hydrography Polygons), ESIL (ESI Shoreline Types - Lines), ESIP (ESI Shoreline Types - Polygons) data layer for additional shoreline/hydrography information. The ESI data are intended to provide baseline environmental data for oil spill planning and response. The Clean Water Act with amendments by the Oil Pollution Act of 1990 requires response plans for immediate and effective protection of sensitive resources. The ESI data may be appropriate for many other coastal management efforts, though the original intent should be kept in mind. 2034 Prepared by Woolpert, Inc., Dayton, Ohio for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), National Ocean Service, Office of Response and Restoration, Emergency Response Division, Seattle, Washington.

Map (digital) In addition to the geographic data layers and their attribute tables, an associated data table, SOURCES, is used to store the source data information in the ESI data structure. The geographic data layer containing resource information (in this case, HYDROL) is linked to the SOURCES table using the SOURCE_ID. The entity-relationship diagram describes relationships between attribute tables in the ESI data structure. The SOURCES data table is described in detail in this document as an Entity or "Child Item". See the Browse_Graphic section for a link to the entity-relationship diagram, which describes the way these tables relate to the geographic data layers and other attribute tables in the ESI data structure.

These data represent a snapshot in time and temporal changes may have occurred. The data are not intended to include all biological or human-use resources present in an area; they focus on species and resources particularly sensitive to oiling. In the event of a spill, they should be used for a first assessment only. The data providers are the experts with regard to individual resources. They should be contacted to confirm if more current data exist or if in-depth information is needed about a particular resource.

The software packages used to develop the atlas are Environmental Systems Research Institute's ArcGIS for Desktop 10.2(R). The hardware configuration is PCs with Windows Operating System 7. A multi-stage error checking process is used to verify both attribute accuracy and logical consistency throughout data production. The process includes a standardized data entry methodology, data review by in-house and external resource experts, a final Quality Assurance/Quality Control (QA/QC) process, and multiple automated logical consistency checks. Quantitative data (such as densities, counts, abundances, or concentrations) provided by resource experts for inclusion in the data set may vary widely in attribute accuracy, depending upon the methodology used to collect and compile such data. For a more detailed evaluation of source data attribute accuracy, contact the sources listed in the Lineage section. The hydrography data set was developed from pre-existing digital data and reflects the positional accuracy of these original data. The horizontal positional accuracy of the 1:24,000 USGS topographic quads should conform to National Map Accuracy Standards at scales of 1:24,000. See the Lineage and Process_Description sections for more information on the original source data and how these data were integrated or manipulated to create the final data set. These data represent linear hydrography for North New York and Long Island Sound.

A multi-stage error checking process, described in the above Attribute Accuracy Report, is used to verify both attribute accuracy and logical consistency throughout data production. This process includes multiple automated logical consistency checks that test the files for missing or duplicate data, rules for proper coding, GIS topological consistencies, and SQL SERVER(R) to ArcGIS(R) consistencies. A final review is made by the GIS manager, before the final Geodatabase and metadata are created. After the data are delivered to NOAA, they are again subjected to a several consistency checks, and processed into the final delivery format.

The shoreline and intertidal habitats were delineated using a mapped sequence of Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) and high resolution digital orthophotography datasets. The LiDAR data was acquired in 2014 as part of a post-Super Storm Sandy contract for the United States Geological Survey (USGS). This task required the LiDAR data be collected at a nominal pulse spacing (NPS) of 0.7 meters. The window for tidally impacted waters within the area of interest was mean low water (MLW) +/- 2 hours exclusive of neap tide. Seven (7) missions were flown between April 3, 2014 and April 21, 2014, as part of the USGS project.The base shoreline was compiled at Mean Higher High Water (MHHW) first by LiDAR extraction, then refined within a Geographic Information System (GIS) utilizing high resolution digital orthophotos. After the shoreline was delineated, digital ortho-imagery from various sources was used to classify shoreline segments using the nationally, standardized ESI scale (see below). Imagery from the New York State Office of Information Technology Service (2013 and 2011), the New Jersey Office of Information Technology (2013), Connecticut Department of Transportation (2012), as well as various imagery sources for Google Earth and Bing Maps (2014) was used during the classification phase. Imagery was produced by Woolpert as part of the ESI data collection effort; however, schedules dictated that shoreline classification must occur prior to the completion of imagery collection and processing. Therefore, the new imagery was not used for the shoreline classification.Shoreline features of 10 meters (m) or greater in length were classified. In addition, wetland polygon datasets originally created by the United States Fish and Wildlife Service National Wetland Inventory (NWI) were modified and updated to be used in conjunction with the ESI shoreline. The data was visually reviewed and classified against the aerial imagery and adjusted where necessary to allow for proper classification. All classifications were determined by the specifications outlined in the Environmental Sensitivity Index Guidelines version 3.0 (2002). Where necessary, multiple types were described for each shoreline segment. GIS quality control measures were implemented to ensure that all data met the required specifications. 2016-01-01T00:00:00 Position ESI Program Manager orr.esi@noaa.gov 7600 Sand Point Way NE Seattle WA 98115 NYS Digital Ortho-imagery Program 44021 Entity 44022 Entity gov.noaa.nmfs.inport:40471 Tyler Christensen 2017-04-05T14:51:57 SysAdmin InPortAdmin 2026-07-09T18:26:03 2018-09-28 Office of Response and Restoration ORR 1002 Public No No 2018-09-28 1 Year 2019-09-28
