Summary

Abstract

The POLITICAL_POLY table contains attribute information for the vector POLYGONS representing political/jurisdictional feature data for Army Corps of Engineers divisions, Coast Guard sectors, cities, counties, Federal Emergency Management Association regions, and tribal lands found in the Great Lakes - St. Clair / Detroit River System. The key field, HUNUM, links to the SOC_DAT table where attribute information for the vector POLYGONS in this data set are stored. A second field, TYPE, stores a 1-4 letter abbreviation of the mapped resource type. This field can be used to quickly identify feature types, and is used to symbolize the human use data layers.

See the Entity_and_Attribute_Overview for a detailed description of how the primary attribute tables relate to the geographic data layers. Also see the Browse_Graphic section for a link to the entity-relationship diagram, which describes the relationships between attribute tables in the ESI data structure. | Description Source: NOAA ESI Guidelines

Data Attribute / Type Description
TYPE
TEXT
The human-use features depicted on the maps are those that could be impacted by an oil spill or could provide access for response operations. TYPE is used to symbolize the map; it can also be used as a quick identifier for the managed polygon features. Greater detail about the object is provided in the SOC_DAT table. | Description Source: NOAA ESI Guidelines
HUNUM
NUMBER

Purpose:

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.
