Data Management Plan (Deprecated)
GUID: gov.noaa.nmfs.inport:57803 | Published / External
This is an outdated version of the NOAA Data Management Plan template. InPort now supports a dedicated Data Management Plan Catalog Item type, which is up-to-date with the latest NOAA DMP template. The ability to generate Data Management Plans from Data Sets will be discontinued in a future release. Please see the Data Management Plan Help Guide to learn more.
Data Management Plan
DMP Template v2.0.1 (2015-01-01)
Please provide the following information, and submit to the NOAA DM Plan Repository.Reference to Master DM Plan (if applicable)
As stated in Section IV, Requirement 1.3, DM Plans may be hierarchical. If this DM Plan inherits provisions from a higher-level DM Plan already submitted to the Repository, then this more-specific Plan only needs to provide information that differs from what was provided in the Master DM Plan.
1. General Description of Data to be Managed
The tabular dataset is a product of household survey conducted in 2018. The sampling geography was a predefined coastal region of North and South Carolina adjacent to offshore wind development areas. The subject of the data collection was resident perceptions of local offshore wind energy development. Variables relate to place attachment, recreational activities, social value of favorite places, awareness, perceived impact to important quality of life items, support level, past and future action, and demographic and household characteristics. There are two formats of the tabular dataset provided: csv and STATA. (2019-07-19)
The spatial/GIS dataset is a product of household survey conducted in 2018. The sampling geography was a predefined coastal region of North and South Carolina adjacent to offshore wind development areas. The subject of the data collection was resident perceptions of local offshore wind energy development. The spatial/GIS dataset is associated with a mapping question, Question 6 of the survey instrument. Question 6 asked respondents to identify three Favorite Places on a map of the study region, as well as to identify associated social values for each location. Locations identified were assigned to 10 square km cells during the survey coding process for spatial analysis and to visualize the spatial distribution of Favorite Places. Shapefiles are provided in the dataset. (OMB CONTROL NUMBER: 0648-0744) (2019-07-19)

Process Steps:
- The Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) oversees the development of renewable energy resources on the Outer Continental Shelf. In response to BOEMâÂÂs interest, we studied the perceptions of coastal residents in North and South Carolina regarding offshore wind energy development in their area. We documented the importance of local context by studying the influence of residentsâ attachment to place, their perception of impacts, and the role of distance (residents to shore) on their support or opposition to proposed local offshore wind energy development. We identified factors predictive of residentsâ 1) support level for offshore wind energy and 2) intention to engage in civic action to advance their position. This study focused on a portion of the Carolina coast, spanning the coastal region of southern North Carolina and northern South Carolina, where BOEM was at varying stages of proposing offshore areas for wind energy development. The study region included residents within 20 miles of the coast in Brunswick, Columbus, Pender, and New Hanover Counties in North Carolina, and Horry County in South Carolina. Researchers conducted a randomly sampled household mail-based survey (2018) in the coastal region described above. Residents 18 years of age and older were surveyed on their level of support for offshore wind development, past and future action, attachment to place, recreational activities, favorite places, and awareness level. They were also asked about the impacts such development could have on important quality of life items. (Citation: Goedeke, Theresa L., Sarah Ball Gonyo, Chloe S. Fleming, Jarrod L.

6. Data Documentation
The EDMC Data Documentation Procedural Directive requires that NOAA data be well documented, specifies the use of ISO 19115 and related standards for documentation of new data, and provides links to resources and tools for metadata creation and validation.

7. Data Access
NAO 212-15 states that access to environmental data may only be restricted when distribution is explicitly limited by law, regulation, policy (such as those applicable to personally identifiable information or protected critical infrastructure information or proprietary trade information) or by security requirements. The EDMC Data Access Procedural Directive contains specific guidance, recommends the use of open-standard, interoperable, non-proprietary web services, provides information about resources and tools to enable data access, and includes a Waiver to be submitted to justify any approach other than full, unrestricted public access.
