55724 Data Set Published / External 53990 Washington and Oregon - Outer Coasts, 2014 Project Completed 2015-10 This data set contains sensitive biological resource data for alcids, diving birds, gulls and terns, passerine birds, pelagic birds, raptors, shorebirds, wading birds, and waterfowl for the Outer Coast of Washington and Oregon. Vector polygons in this data set represent birds nesting, migratory staging, wintering sites, and general use areas. Vector lines in this data set represent nesting, roosting, and/or wintering sites. Vector points in this data set represent bird nesting and roosting sites. Species specific abundance, seasonality, status, life history, and source information are stored in relational data tables designed to be used in conjunction with this spatial data layer. This data set comprises a portion of the ESI data for Outer Coast of Washington and Oregon. ESI data characterize the marine and coastal environments and wildlife by their sensitivity to spilled oil. The ESI data include information for three main components: shoreline habitats, sensitive biological resources, and human-use resources. The ESI data were collected, mapped, and digitized to provide 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. 2194 Prepared by Research Planning, Inc., Columbia, South Carolina for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), National Ocean Service, Office of Response and Restoration, Emergency Response Division, Seattle, Washington.

However, if issues with the Geodatabase linkages or table contents are identified, the Geodatabase and/or the associated Map Document may be updated. Assure most current data is being used by downloading from https://response.restoration.noaa.gov/esi_download and/or comparing modification dates provided at this site. Map (digital) The primary attribute tables associated with the ESI biology data are BIOFILE, SOURCES, and BREED_DT. The geographic data layer containing biological resource information (in this case, BIRDS, BIRDSL, and BIRDSPT) is linked to the BIOFILE using the RARNUM field. There is a many-to-many relationship from the data layer to the BIOFILE, as an RARNUM may be repeated in several geographic features. Likewise, in the BIOFILE, the same RARNUM may appear in multiple records, representing a unique combination of species found in that region. To be represented by the same RARNUM, these species groups must also share the same seasonality, concentration, mapping qualifier, and source information. The items in the BIOFILE are ELEMENT, SUBELEMENT, NAME, GEN_SPEC, S, F, STATE, S_DATE, F_DATE, GRANK, GRANKDATE, MAPPING_QUALIFIER, CONC, JAN, FEB, MAR, APR, MAY, JUN, JUL, AUG, SEP, OCT, NOV, DEC, BREED1, BREED2, BREED3, BREED4, BREED5, RARNUM, G_SOURCE, S_SOURCE, and BREED. The G_SOURCE and S_SOURCE fields provide links to the SOURCES table, where object level source information is available. The BREED field is the link to the BREED_DT table, where searchable breed information is provided. The links to both of these tables are also many-to-many. During the collection of the ESI data, six relational data tables are used to store the attribute data. These are the BIORES, BREED, SEASONAL, SOURCES, SPECIES, and STATUS tables. When we create new ESI data, we populate these tables to maintain the integrity of the data collected. Once completed, all information populating these tables is collapsed into the BIOFILE to ease data queries and general usability of the final product.

The software packages used to develop the atlas are Environmental Systems Research Institute's ArcGIS for Desktop 10.2(R) and SQL SERVER(R) (version 2005). The hardware configuration is PC's 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. Spatial components for the biological data layers can come from expert interviews, hardcopy, or digital sources. Some of the spatial components of the biological data layers may have been developed using regional experts who estimate concentration areas. It is difficult to estimate the positional accuracy of such data, except to state that they are compiled on hardcopy base maps with a scale of 1:24,000. Some of the spatial components of the biological data sets are developed from pre-existing digital or hardcopy sources and reflect the positional accuracy of these original data. Note that biological resource data by their very nature are considered "fuzzy", and this should be understood when considering the positional accuracy of vector digital objects representing these resources. 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 a synthesis of expert knowledge, digital data, available hardcopy documents and survey data on bird nesting, wintering, migratory staging, and other spatial/temporal concentration areas.

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. Sources of data include: 1) interviews with resource experts, 2) published and unpublished reports and 3) digital datasets.

Seabird colony data for the Outer Coast of Oregon was provided by USFWS; additional colony sites from this data set were mapped as lines (BIRDL) along cliff shorelines and nest points (NESTS).Tabular data for each OR seabird colony was based on the "R" attribute, or the 'Most Recent Accurate' count per species per colony, based on expert opinion by USFWS. For that reason, there are species counts within colonies of '0 BREEDING BIRDS', implying that it is likely that the species is not currently breeding at that location, but has in the past, and therefore may in the future and/or is still surveyed for presence/absence at that colony location. Less than 10 individual OR seabird colony records dated from 1976-1977; the remainder of the "Most Recent Accurate" counts ranged from 1988-2013. Data for the Columbia River Estuary was provided by Bird Research Northwest. Black oystercatcher wintering and nesting information in Oregon was provided by USGS. Nesting data were mapped to polygons provided by the contributing agencies, based on the most recent data available. 2015-10-01T00:00:00 Position ESI Program Manager orr.esi@noaa.gov 7600 Sand Point Way NE Seattle WA 98115 2 The distribution of shorebirds, waterfowl, gulls/terns and seabirds in estuarine areas was mapped using several sources: 1) USFWS midwinter waterfowl survey data, 2) eBird counts from 2009-2014 were used to populate species lists and concentrations for waterfowl, shorebirds, gulls, terns, and seabirds, 3) published USFWS NWR Comprehensive Conservation Plans and other reports, and 4) expert opinion of contributing agencies. Smaller estuaries are represented by one polygon for the entire estuary. In the Columbia River Estuary, Willapa Bay, and Grays Harbor, estuarine areas were subdivided into groups of flats or geographic regions based on survey datasets, IBA boundaries, and expert opinion. Concentrations in Oregon estuaries and other bay polygons are generalized to an order of magnitude representing the maximum observation from 2009-2014; as such, these estimates are an indication of the number of animals possible in a given location during the period of highest occupancy. Only species with max counts higher than 100 individuals were included from the eBird dataset. For many shorebirds and waterfowl, this is during the spring and/or fall migration periods; however, many waterfowl overwinter in coastal bays and estuaries. Brown pelican roosting areas were mapped to seabird colony polygons and other areas (e.g. jetties, flats) based on survey data provided by USFWS. Shoreline areas mapped as polygons include Western snowy plover nesting areas, beaches identified as important shorebird areas in both Washington and Oregon, rocky intertidal habitats for shorebirds in Washington and wintering habitats for black oystercatcher in Oregon. Western snowy plover distributions were mapped based on digital data from ORBIC and WDFW's PHS database, USFWS's Summer Window Surveys between 2005-2012, and expert knowledge from USFWS's Vanessa Loverti, WDFW's Cyndie Sundstrom, and Shoalwater Bay Tribe biologists. Digital data was initially incorporated as-is, and then matched to the ESI shoreline and modified based on input from WDFW, ORBIC, and USFWS biologists during the review process. 2015-10-01T00:00:00 Position ESI Program Manager orr.esi@noaa.gov 7600 Sand Point Way NE Seattle WA 98115 3 Pelagic bird distributions were mapped using survey data from OCNMS and NOAA NWFSC and published reports from BOEM and USFWS. The offshore region was split into zones to represent nearshore (0-5 km) and shelf (> 5 km offshore) waters in Oregon. Waters greater than 100m in depth were split into another polygon within the OCNMS. These zones were further divided by latitude and also split into 3 regions running north/south along the coast, divided at Cape Meares and the southern boundary of OCNMS. Pelagic distributions of marbled murrelet were provided by the Northwest Forest Plan based on their survey areas. Where boundaries between marbled murrelet data and pelagic bird distributions were similar in offshore areas, they were condensed. Distributions for state and federally threatened and endangered birds were mapped from WDFW's PHS database as well as ORBIC digital data. PHS data was incorporated as-is, except for the case of Western snowy plover, as noted above. Data from ORBIC was generalized to one mile squared quads, when polygons in the data set were less than one half mile in diameter. Species names from the ORBIC data set were also changed to give further protection to sensitive, threatened, and endangered species. Marbled murrelet nesting habitat was mapped from raster digital data produced as part of the Northwest Forest Plan Interagency Regional Monitoring Program's Fifteen Year Report. The two highest probability classes (3 and 4) were selected for inclusion based on consultation with Deanna Lynch (USFWS). These two classes were merged into a single distribution layer and buffered by 50 m to make a more cohesive distribution. Smaller polygons (those under 10,000 m2) were removed from the distribution to reduce the complexity of the product, and only habitat within 3 miles of major water bodies was retained. 2015-10-01T00:00:00 Position ESI Program Manager orr.esi@noaa.gov 7600 Sand Point Way NE Seattle WA 98115 4 Process step for developing the BIRDSL (BIRD Lines) feature class. Three main sources of data were used to depict bird distribution and seasonality for this data layer: 1) personal interviews with resource experts from U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS), U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), and Oregon State University (OSU); 2) digital and/or survey data provided by USFWS and USGS; and 3) published hardcopy sources. BIRDL were added to the Outer Coast of Washington and Oregon ESI as a new spatial format for displaying birds in addition to the standard formats of BIRD polygons and BIRD points or nests. Lines were used to depict seabird colonies that occur along the cliffs of Oregon by USFWS, and RPI/NOAA adapted that technique for cliff nesting and roosting species as appropriate. BIRDL were also used to to depict black oystercatcher nesting areas along OR cliffs and brown pelican roosting areas. Tabular data for each OR seabird colony was based on the "R" attribute, or the 'Most Recent Accurate' count per species per colony, based on expert opinion by USFWS. For that reason there are species counts within colonies of '0 BREEDING BIRDS', implying that it is likely that the species is not currently breeding at that location, but has in the past, and therefore may in the future and/or is still surveyed for presence/absence at that colony location. Less than 10 individual OR seabird colony records dated from 1976-1977; the remainder of the "Most Recent Accurate" counts ranged from 1988-2013. Black oystercatcher shoreline nesting areas in Oregon are represented as lines corresponding to survey segments. Sites are indicated as either having confirmed nesting pairs based on survey data or suspected nesting based on available habitat. The above digital and/or hardcopy sources were compiled by the project biologist to create the BIRDSL data layer. 2015-10-01T00:00:00 Position ESI Program Manager orr.esi@noaa.gov 7600 Sand Point Way NE Seattle WA 98115 5 Process step for developing the BIRDSPT (BIRD Points) feature class. Four main sources of data were used to depict BIRDSPT (BIRD Points) distribution and seasonality for this data layer: 1) personal interviews with resource experts from Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW), Oregon State University (OSU), U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS), and Bird Research Northwest; 2) digital and/or survey data from USFWS, WDFW, Bird Research Northwest; and 3) published reports and books, and 4) online sources (seasonality only). BIRDSPT were used to depict seabird colonies for the Outer Coast of Washington, based on data that was provided by USFWS. While there are some WA colony locations with tabular data current up to 2010, many records have 'DATA PRIOR TO 2000' in the concentration field (as per discussions with various data providers), as some of the 'Most Recent Accurate' counts for these colonies dated back to the 1980s and 1970s. Brown pelican roosting information from USFWS surveys is also depicted as points where the survey sites matched the colonial nesting sites. BIRDSPT were used to depict seabird colonies for the Outer Coast of Oregon, based on the data that was provided by USFWS, in a few locations only. The 'Most Recent Accurate' counts, based on USFWS expert opinion, were displayed in the concentration field by species by colony (more information in the BIRDL layer). The majority of seabird colony data for Oregon was diplayed as polygons and lines for this atlas. Nesting/roosting colony data from other data sources (e.g., WDFW, OSU, and Bird Research Northwest) were depicted as BIRDSPT for the following species/species groups: cormorants, terns, common murre, gulls, great blue heron, raptors, and purple martin. The above digital and/or hardcopy sources were compiled by the project biologist to create the BIRDSPT data layer. 2015-10-01T00:00:00 Position ESI Program Manager orr.esi@noaa.gov 7600 Sand Point Way NE Seattle WA 98115 6 The above digital and/or hardcopy sources were compiled by the project biologist to create the BIRDS, BIRDSL, and BIRDSPT data layers. Depending on the type of source data, three general approaches are used for compiling each data layer: 1) information gathered during initial interviews and from hardcopy sources are compiled onto U.S. Geological Survey 1:24,000 topographic quadrangles and digitized; 2) hardcopy maps are digitized at their source scale; 3) digital data layers are evaluated and used "as is" or integrated with the hardcopy data sources. See the Lineage section for additional information on the type of source data for this data layer. The ESI, biology, and human-use data are compiled into the standard ESI digital data format. A second set of interviews with participating resource experts are conducted to review the compiled data. If necessary, edits to the BIRDS, BIRDSL, and BIRDSPT data layers are made based on the recommendations of the resource experts, and final hardcopy maps and digital data are created. 2015-10-01T00:00:00 Position ESI Program Manager orr.esi@noaa.gov 7600 Sand Point Way NE Seattle WA 98115 55744 Entity 55741 Entity 55742 Entity 55743 Entity 55745 Entity 55746 Entity gov.noaa.nmfs.inport:55724 David Moe Nelson 2019-03-05T15:40:47 SysAdmin InPortAdmin 2026-07-09T18:26:04 2019-03-08 Office of Response and Restoration ORR 1002 Public No No 2019-03-08 1 Year 2020-03-08
