Coastwide Reference Monitoring System (CRMS) 2016 Site 5452 land-water classification data

Wetland restoration efforts conducted by the Coastal Wetlands Planning, Protection and Restoration Act (CWPPRA) in Louisiana rely on monitoring efforts to determine the efficacy of these efforts. The Coastwide Reference Monitoring System (CRMS) was developed to assist in a multiple-reference approach that uses aspects of hydrogeomorphic functional assessments and probabilistic sampling for monitoring. The CRMS program includes a suite of approximately 390 sites that encompass the range of hydrological and ecological conditions for each stratum. As part of CRMS, land and water classifications are created from Digital Orthophoto Quarter Quadrangles (DOQQs) approximately every three years at all CRMS sites. A DOQQ is a raster image in which displacement in the image caused by sensor orientation and terrain relief has been removed and combines the image characteristics of a photo with geometric qualities of a map. The DOQQs generated for this project consist of 2016 Color Infrared (CIR) Digital Imagery. These images were classified into land and water categories using a threshold of the near infrared (NIR) band, followed by supervised and unsupervised classification.  Initial classification results are then reviewed by multiple image analysts to identify and manually recode errors. The final land-water classifications are intended to serve as both geographic and quantitative assessments of landscape composition on the date of acquisition. Three previous assessments have been conducted (2005, 2008, and 2012). Once the program creates enough data points for statistical analyses, these data will be used for land area change rate calculation.

Seismic Reflection, EdgeTech SB-424 chirp shot points collected within Lake Powell, UT-AZ during USGS field activity 2017-049-FA (CSV text and Esri point shapefile, GCS WGS 84)

High-resolution geophysical mapping of Lake Powell in the Glen Canyon National Recreation Area in Utah and Arizona was conducted between October 8 and November 15, 2017, as part of a collaborative effort between the U.S. Geological Survey and the Bureau of Reclamation to provide high-quality data needed to reassess the area-capacity tables for the Lake Powell reservoir. Seismic data collected during this survey can help to define the rates of deposition within the San Juan and Colorado Rivers, which are the main inflows to Lake Powell. These new data are intended to improve water budget management decisions that affect the natural and recreational resources of the reservoir. Multibeam echosounder bathymetry and backscatter data were collected along 2,312 kilometers of tracklines (331 square kilometers) of the lake floor to regionally define its depth and morphology, as well as the character and distribution of lake-floor sediments. Ninety-two kilometers of seismic-reflection profile data were also collected to define the thickness and structure of sediment deposits near the confluences of the San Juan and Colorado Rivers.

Feature and distribution of landslides induced by the Mid Niigata Prefecture Earthquake in 2004, Japan

This inventory was originally created by Yagi and others (2009) describing the landslides triggered by the M6.9 Mid Niigata earthquake that occurred on 2008-06-13 at 23:43:45 UTC. Care should be taken when comparing with other inventories because different authors use different mapping techniques. This inventory also could be associated with other earthquakes such as aftershocks or triggered events. Please check the author methods summary and the original data source for more information on these details and to confirm the viability of this inventory for your specific use.
With the exception of the data from USGS sources, the inventory data and associated metadata were not acquired by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) and thus have not been reviewed for accuracy and completeness by the USGS. They are presented as part of this data series for convenience of the user only, as part of an effort to make published ground-failure inventories more accessible from a single aggregated site. No warranty, expressed or implied, is made regarding the display or utility of the data on any other system or for general or scientific purposes, nor shall the act of distribution constitute any such warranty.

Data release for the Historical land use and land cover for assessing the northern Colorado Front Range urban landscape

The dataset was generated to describe historical land-use and land-cover (LULC)for the northern Colorado urban Front
Range (which includes the cities of Boulder, Fort Collins, Greeley, and Denver) for an area covering approximately
1,023,660 hectares. The Front Range urban landscape is diverse and interspersed with highly productive agriculture
as well as natural land cover types including evergreen forest in the Rocky Mountain foothills and Great Plains
grassland. To understand the dynamics of urban growth, raster maps were created at a 1-meter resolution for each of
four time steps, nominally 1937, 1957, 1977, and 1997. In total, 8 to 38 LULC classes were identified using manual
interpretation techniques, aerial photographs, historical maps, and other available information. The maps provide high
resolution spatial data for understanding the historical progression of urbanization and will allow further analysis
of the effects of urban growth on social and ecological systems.

Bathymetric and topographic grid intended for simulations of the 1945 Makran tsunami in Karachi Harbour

This digital elevation model provides a tool for calibrating tsunami risk to observations of the 1945 Makran tsunami in Karachi Harbour. The DEM bathymetry is derived from soundings made mainly during the first eight years after the tsunami. Although deficient in portraying intertidal backwaters and upland topography, the DEM accurately depicts the sheltered setting of one of the two tide gauges that recorded the 1945 tsunami.

Coal drill hole database for the Little Snake River coal field and Red Desert area, Wyoming.

The U.S. Geological Survey conducted an assessment of coal resources and reserves in the Little Snake River coal field and Red Desert area of the Greater Green River Basin in Southwest Wyoming.   A comprehensive database was compiled to support this assessment that includes data points for drill-holes and measured sections.   Associated with these resources are lithology descriptors, (focusing on coal beds of varying depth) as well as coal quality data.   Sources of data includes the USGS National Coal Resources Data System (NCRDS), Anadarko Land Corporation (Anadarko), Wyoming Oil and Gas Conservation Commission (WOGCC), and previously unpublished data in USGS files.   The primary table describes the sample location and contains 4,214 data points with 2,593 coal drill holes, 1,101 oil, gas, and coalbed methane (CBM) wells, and 520 measured sections.  A second table documents coal lithology and correlated formation &amp; coal bed names.  This table has 78,701 stratigraphic records.  Coal quality analytical data existed for 299 drill holes for a total of 906 records which reside in the third table.   A unique identifier is assigned to each table to link the related records.
