NOAA Office for Coastal Management Coastal Inundation Digital Elevation Model: Honolulu Weather Forecast Office (HFO WFO) - Kauai

These data were created as part of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Office for Coastal Management's efforts to create an online mapping viewer called the Sea Level Rise and Coastal Flooding Impacts Viewer. It depicts potential sea level rise and its associated impacts on the nation's coastal areas. The purpose of the mapping viewer is to provide coastal managers and scientists with a preliminary look at sea level rise (SLR) and coastal flooding impacts. The viewer is a screening-level tool that uses nationally consistent data sets and analyses. Data and maps provided can be used at several scales to help gauge trends and prioritize actions for different scenarios. The Sea Level Rise and Coastal Flooding Impacts Viewer may be accessed at: http://www.coast.noaa.gov/slr  This metadata record describes the Honolulu Weather Forecast Office (HFO WFO) digital elevation model (DEM), which is a part of a series of DEMs produced for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Office for Coastal Management's Sea Level Rise and Coastal Flooding Impacts Viewer described above. The DEMs created for this project were developed using the NOAA National Weather Service's Weather Forecast Office (WFO) boundaries. This DEM includes the best available lidar known to exist at the time of DEM creation that met project specifications for the Honolulu WFO, which includes the following islands in Hawaii: Kauai, Oahu, Molokai, Maui, Lanai, and Hawaii.  The DEM is derived from multiple sources. 1. 2006 Hawaii FEMA Lidar - acquired by FEMA along south shores of islands 2. 2007 USACE Pacific Islands Lidar: Hawaiian Islands - acquired by USACE and Hawaii State Civil Defense along north and windward facing shores of islands  Hydrographic breaklines were delineated from LiDAR intensity imagery generated from the LiDAR datasets. The final DEM is hydro flattened such that water elevations are less than or equal to -0.5 meters.  The DEM is referenced vertically to the Local Mean Sea Level (LMSL) tidal datum with vertical units of meters and horizontally to the North American Datum of 1983 (NAD83). The resolution of the DEM is 3 meters.

Delaware Bay, Delaware Benthic Habitats 2010 Substrate

The Coastal Program of Delaware's Division of Soil and Water conservation (DNREC), the University of Delaware, Partnership for the Delaware Estuary, and the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection have partnered and are carrying out a bottom and sub-bottom imaging project to identify and map the benthic habitat and sub-bottom sediments of Delaware Bay and River.  This project was initiated to better understand the distribution of bottom sediment types, habitat biodiversity, and most importantly, human's impact on the bay bottom and its living resources.  The project integrates the use of three types of acoustical systems: Roxann Seabed classification system, chirp sub-bottom profiling, and multi-beam bathymetric mapping.  Verification of the acoustic data with bottom and sub-bottom sediments is performed through the collection of bra banc core samples and underwater video images.

2020-2023 CCAP Version 2 Water Cover

The NOAA Coastal Change Analysis Program (C-CAP) produces national standardized land cover and change products for the coastal regions of the U.S. C-CAP products inventory coastal intertidal areas, wetlands, and adjacent uplands with the goal of monitoring changes in these habitats through time. The timeframe for this metadata is 2020 through 2023, depending on the latest date of available imagery. These maps were developed for NOAA by Ecopia (ecopiatech.com) utilizing high resolution 30cm or better aerial imagery. In addition, a digital surface model (DSM) derived from the stereo imagery was used to determine vegetation heights. This information provides managers with a detailed accounting of current landscape conditions related to impervious surface, woody canopy, and water feature extents.

Light Attenuation Kd490

This dataset represents monthly and annual mean summaries for Kd490 for the time period from 2000/2001 to 2017/2018, depending on the month and data available (see processing steps). Kd (490) is the diffuse attenuation coefficient at 490 nm. The diffuse attenuation coefficient in water indicates how strongly light intensity at a specified wavelength is attenuated within the water column. This parameter has wide applicability in ocean optics, as it is directly related to the presence of scattering particles in the water column, either organic or inorganic, and thus is an indication of water clarity. The diffuse attenuation coefficient at 490 nm (Kd490) indicates the turbidity of the water column -- how visible light in the blue to green region of the spectrum penetrates within the water column. The value of Kd490 (m-1) represents the rate at which light at 490 nm is attenuated with depth. For example, a Kd490 of 0.1/meter means that light intensity will be reduced one natural log within 10 meters of water. Thus, for a Kd490 of 0.1, one attenuation length is 10 meters. Higher Kd490 value means smaller attenuation depth and lower clarity of ocean water.

2018 Long Island, NY DMC 4-Band 8 Bit Imagery

This data set consists of a set of aerial triangulated 4-band orthophotos (.tif format) with a .5 meter resolution of the Long Island South Shore that includes the areas of Great South Bay, Moriches Bay, and Shinnecock Bay. The imagery was flown over three days, May 9, 11 and 24, 2018.  The digital imagery was acquired by Richard Crouse &amp; Associates(RCA) using an Intergraph DMC2e 230-23522 digital mapping camera. The resulting photographic images were aerotriangulated by Leading Edge Geomatics and reviewed for quality by Dewberry.  The imagery was collected under environmental conditions favorable to mapping shallow submerged habitats, in particular seagrass.  Missions were timed to coincide with low tide, sun angles below 30 degrees, calm sea state, and low-turbidity.  The missions were also scheduled to take advantage of adequate seagrass biomass and minimal brown tide events.  Close coordination with local observers on the ground was maintained to ensure good water clarity during data acquisition.

NOAA Office for Coastal Management Coastal Inundation Digital Elevation Model: Seattle (WA) WFO - Clallam, Jefferson, Kitsap, Mason, Pierce, and Thurston Counties

This digital elevation model (DEM) is a part of a series of DEMs produced for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Office for Coastal Management's Sea Level Rise and Coastal Flooding Impacts Viewer. The DEMs created for this project were developed using the NOAA National Weather Service's Weather Forecast Office (WFO) boundaries. Because the WFO boundaries can cover large areas, the WFO DEM was divided into smaller DEMs to ensure more manageable file sizes.  The Seattle (WA) WFO DEM was split into three smaller DEMs. They are divided along county lines and are: 1. Seattle (WA) WFO - Grays Harbor County 2. Seattle (WA) WFO - Clallam, Jefferson, Kitsap, Mason, Pierce, and Thurston Counties 3. Seattle (WA) WFO - Whatcom, San Juan, Skagit, Island, Snohomish, and King Counties  This metadata record describes the DEM for Seattle (WA) WFO - Clallam, Jefferson, Kitsap, Mason, Pierce, and Thurston Counties. The DEM includes the best available lidar data known to exist at the time of DEM creation for the coastal areas of Clallam, Jefferson, Kitsap, Mason, Pierce, and Thurston counties, that met project specifications.  The DEM is derived from multiple LiDAR datasets collected between 1996 and 2005 for the Puget Sound LiDAR Consortium. Hydrographic breaklines used in the creation of the DEM were delineated using LiDAR intensity imagery generated from each constituent dataset. The DEMs are hydro flattened such that water elevations are less than or equal to 0 meters.  The DEM is referenced vertically to the North American Vertical Datum of 1988 (NAVD88) with vertical units of meters and horizontally to the North American Datum of 1983 (NAD83). The resolution of the DEM is approximately 5 meters.

Side-Scan-Sonar Points for Hudson River, NY

Side Scan Point Files.  These points correspond to individual pings which produced hte side-scan-sonar backscatter imagery. Sonar data were collected November 6 to December 15, 2009, in the estuary north from Saugerties to Troy.  Data Collection and Processing: The interferometric system used to measure acoustic reflectivity, provided a quantitative measure of reflectivity for every square meter of the survey area. Fugro's system measured and recorded acoustic reflectivity that has a high dynamic range such that the full range of reflectivity's encountered in the estuary environment can be recorded while maintaining a constant gain setting on the system receiver. Reflectivity data from the GeoSwath was used to produce a normalized as well as a classified image of the bottom. Additionally, Fugro provided slope, aspect and hillshade models as additional acoustic parameters. Backscatter data processing was completed with CARIS 7.0. Raw XTF files were created by converting Hypack format (*.HSX) into Triton format (*.XTF).  Points were exported from the raw XTF files at an interval of 400 pings (approximately 100 meters).

Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act

This data represents geographic terms used within the Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act (OCSLA or Act). The Act defines the United States outer continental shelf (OCS) as all submerged lands lying seaward of state submerged lands and waters (as defined in the Submerged Lands Act) which are under U.S. jurisdiction and control. Under the OCSLA, the Secretary of the Interior is responsible for the administration of mineral exploration and the development of the OCS. The OCSLA has been amended several times, most recently as a result of the Energy Policy Act of 2005. In addition, the Energy Policy Act of 2005 amended OCSLA Section 8 to give jurisdiction of alternate energy-related uses on the outer continental shelf to the Department of the Interior. When investigating geo-regulatory boundaries near the boundary edges, users should consult the most up-to-date applicable jurisdictional boundaries from all respective authoritative sources.
