      <abstract>The patterns and variability of hurricane tracks are an important indicator for scientists and emergency managers to assess risk and build resilience among coastal communities. The most complete archive of tracks is the International Best Track Archive for Climate Stewardship (IBTrACS), which was developed by the World Meteorological Organization, NOAA, and many others.  A subset of North Atlantic and North Pacific records from 1988 to 2022 was extracted from the IBTrACS and amended with storm category values to generate this data product.</abstract>

            <description>1. Download IBTrACS storm track data from: https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/products/international-best-track-archive
2. Extract those features in the IBTrACS data that are: a) attributed to the North Atlantic, Eastern Pacific, or Western Pacific ocean basins; b) occur in or after 1988 (in or after 2001 for the Western Pacific); and c) have maximum wind values above 33 knots.
3. From this subset of the IBTrACS data, extract those features that are attributed as extratropical (ET), subtropical (SS), or tropical (TS).
4. Create a (storm) "Category" field. For features that are tropical storms ('TS'), modify the field value to the appropriate category, based on wind speed (see https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/aboutsshws.php). Also designate features as 'ET', 'SS', or 'TS' accordingly.
5. Features that crossed the International Dateline were trimmed, as these features cause issues when running the buffer tool for associated exposure model layers.</description>
