Monthly Dynamic Surface Water Extent MODIS (DSWEmod) Images for the Conterminous United States – 2004

Members from the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Patterns in the Landscape - Analyses of Cause and Effect (PLACE) team are releasing monthly surface water maps for the conterminous United States (U.S.) from 2003 through 2019 as 250-meter resolution geoTIFF files. The maps were produced using the Dynamic Surface Water Extent (DSWE) algorithm applied to daily Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) imagery (DSWEmod) (Soulard et al., 2021) - see associated items. The DSWEmod model classifies the landscape (i.e., each MODIS pixel) into different classes of surface water based on quantified levels of confidence, including, i) high-confidence surface water (class 1), ii) moderate-confidence surface water (class 2), iii) potential wetland (class 3), and iv) low-confidence water/wetland (class 4), as well as a not-water class (class 0) and a no-data class (class 9).
This Child Item includes the monthly DSWEmod surface water maps for 2004. The image contains 12 bands, where each band represents a month from January (Band 1) to December (Band 12). The Parent Directory for this data release consists of a zipped folder which contains the monthly DSWEmod surface water maps from 2003 through 2019. There are 17 multi-band images within the zipped folder, equating to one image for each year from 2003 through 2019. Similar to this Child Item, each image consists of 12 bands, where each band value from 1-12 represents sequential months from January (Band 1) to December (Band 12). Each Child Item consists of a single year of DSWEmod surface water maps (e.g., DSWEmod_YearlyImages_2015) to allow for the user to download specific years rather than the full collection of DSWEmod data.

Coastwide Reference Monitoring System (CRMS) 2021 Site 0194 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 398 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 2021 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. Five previous assessments have been conducted (2005, 2008, 2012, 2015/2016, and 2018). Once the program creates enough data points for statistical analyses, these data will be used for land area change rate calculation.

Data Tables Associated with an Analysis of the U.S. Geological Survey's Historical Water-use Data, 1985–2015

The datasets in this data release contain the results of an analysis of the U.S. Geological Survey's historical water-use data from 1985 to 2015. Data were assessed to determine the top category of water use by volume. Data from groundwater, surface water, and total water (groundwater plus surface water) use were parsed by water type, and the top category of use by county or the geographic region or local government equivalent to a county (for example, parishes in Louisiana) was determined. There are two sets of results provided, one for the "Priority" categories of water use and the second for all categories of water use. "Priority" categories are irrigation, public supply, and thermoelectric power and comprise 90 percent of all water use nationwide. In addition to the priority categories, the remaining categories of water use are as follows: aquaculture, domestic, industrial, livestock, and mining. Water-use data historically have been compiled at the county level every 5 years as part of the U.S. Geological Survey's National Water Use Science Project. In 2020 the U.S. Geological Survey began transitioning the collection of water-use data from every 5 years to an annual collection, from county level to hydrologic unit code (HUC) 12, and to a model-based approach. To assist in the transition, an assessment of the current (2022) historical water-use data was done by the Water-Use Gap Analysis Project.

Spatial distribution of depth-averaged velocity measured in the Chicago Sanitary and Ship Canal, Chicago, IL (March 2-3, 2010)

These data were collected using a 600 kHz TRDI Rio Grande acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP) in mode 12 with 50 centimeter bins from a moving boat.  The data were georeferenced with a Trimble Ag132 differential Global Positioning System (GPS) receiver with submeter accuracy.  The data have been depth-averaged over the entire measured portion of the water column and temporally averaged over 5-second intervals to reduce noise.  These data were collected during water-quality surveys of the right bank of the Chicago Sanitary and Ship Canal (CSSC) and include low-velocity regions of the canal such as barge slips in addition to the main channel. Data were processed using the Velocity Mapping Toolbox (Parsons and others, 2013). Any data assigned a value of "-9999" are bad or missing data and should not be used for analysis.

GAK_Q35.TIF - Gulf of Alaska U.S. EEZ GLORIA sidescan-sonar data mosaic (5 of 30) (LCC, 50 m, WGS84)

GLORIA data for the Gulf of Alaska Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) were acquired during five cruises over a four year period. The first cruise conducted in 1986 (F-1-86-GA) surveyed an area of the north-central mosaic area and covered an area of approximately 40,000 square kilometers (sq km). The second two cruises (F-8-88-AA, F-9-88-WG) were conducted in 1988. One of the 1988 cruises (F-8-88-AA) focused on a survey of the Aleutian Arc. The eastern most portion of that survey extended outside of the Aleutian Arc survey area and covered an area of approximately 52,000 square kilometers (sq km) of seafloor on the western edge of the Gulf of Alaska. The final two cruises (F-6-89-GA, F-7-89-EG) were completed in 1989. As in earlier EEZ reconnaissance surveys, the USGS utilized the GLORIA (Geological LOng-Range Inclined Asdic) sidescan-sonar system to complete the geologic mapping. The collected GLORIA data were processed and digitally mosaicked to produce continuous imagery of the seafloor. Thirty digital mosaics with a 50-meter pixel resolution were completed for the region.
