Maryland Annual Vehicle Miles of Travel

Annual Vehicle Miles of Travel (AVMT) represents the estimated number of miles driven on Maryland's public highways for a given year. There are two components used to estimate AVMT - traffic count data and highway mileage.
Traffic count data is summarized and reported as Annual Average Daily Traffic (AADT).

AADTs are calculated from short-term (48-hour) traffic counts performed on all publicly maintained roads in Maryland (including county and municipal).  These counts are factored to account for seasonal variation in traffic patterns and represent an “Average Day”. 

For planning purposes, AADT's are assigned to highway segments in order to provide a picture of traffic patterns is on the highway system on an average day.
Highway mileage statistics are complied annually based on mileage reports from the local jurisdictions and SHA and MDTA offices.  Any mileage changes  are field verified by SHA's data collections crews.   

AVMT is calculated by multiplying the AADT on a road segment by the segment length. Because AADT represents Daily traffic, the result is multiplied by 365 to represent Annual Vehicle Miles of Travel. (AVMT = AADT X SECTION LENGTH X365)

Data from: Detection of the 1016Gly and 989Pro <i>knockdown resistance</i> mutations in Florida, USA <i>Aedes aegypti</i>

<p dir="ltr"><i>Aedes aegypti</i> is a major arboviral disease vector and is therefore a critical target for control by public health programs. Early eradication efforts have shown that <i>Ae. aegypti</i> can rapidly build insecticide resistance and now, resistance to pyrethroids, the major class of adulticides used for operational control, is common in many populations. A major contributor to this resistance is a group of knockdown resistance<i> </i>(<i>kdr</i>) SNPs that normally exist in distinct ensembles in the Western Hemisphere and the Indopacific with little known mixing. In this study, we detected, and confirmed using multiple methods, two Indopacific <i>kdr</i> SNPs, V1016G and S989P, in three recent collections from Osceola County, Florida. This represents a large expansion of the geographic range of the Indopacific <i>kdr</i> SNPs. We consider the implications of this finding on future insecticide resistance surveillance studies, including assessing the ability of our current screening tools to detect these SNPs. We find that the presence of the Indopacific SNPs requires modification of existing resistance screening protocols and requires further work to understand the operational implications for mosquito control. </p><p dir="ltr">The information in this repository consists of the data supporting the original detection and the confirmation of the presence of the Indopacific mutations. It also includes sequencing protocols, analysis scripts, and sequencing metadata used in the study.</p>

Priority Shoreline Areas

Each point in Coastal Resiliency Assessment Shoreline Points represents a 250 meter segment of the Maryland coast, including Atlantic, Chesapeake Bay and Coastal Bay shorelines. The Natural Capital Project's Coastal Vulnerability model was used to calculate a Shoreline Hazard Index, representing the relative exposure of each segment to storm-induced erosion and flooding. Inputs to the model included 6 physical variables (geomorphology, elevation, sea level rise, wave power, storm surge height and erosion rates) and 5 habitat types (forest, marsh, dune, oyster reef and underwater grass). Two scenarios of the model were run: one scenario incorporating the protective role of all existing coastal habitats and the other scenario simulating the complete loss of habitats. The difference between the two scenarios indicates the potential magnitude of coastal hazard reduction by habitats at each location. Model results were integrated with MD DNR’s Community Flood Risk Areas (March, 2016) in order to highlight areas where hazard reduction by habitats is most likely to benefit at-risk coastal communities. This dataset was produced under award number NA13NOS4190136 from the Office of Ocean and Coastal Resource Management (OCRM), National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) through the Maryland Department of Natural Resources Chesapeake and Coastal Services (CCS). The statements, finding and recommendations are those of the authors and do not necessarily reflect the views of NOAA or the U.S. Department of Commerce. The Natural Capital Project (NatCap), CCS and The Nature Conservancy (TNC) all contributed to the production of this dataset.

Non-Federal Lands within Wilderness

<p><span>Wilderness
areas are federally-owned public lands managed by the federal government
through four agencies, the </span>Bureau of Land Management, Fish and Wildlife
Service, Forest Service, and National Park Service. When the National Wilderness
Preservation System started in 1964, only 54 wilderness areas were included.
Since then, the system has grown nearly every year to include more than 800. The time component of this service is based on the year in which the wilderness was originally designated (additions may have occurred in subsequent years). Overall,
however, only about 5% of the entire United States—an area slightly larger than
the state of California— is protected as wilderness. Because Alaska contains
just over half of America's wilderness, only about 2.7% of the contiguous
United States—an area about the size of Minnesota—is protected as wilderness. To
learn more about wilderness areas, visit <a href='https://wilderness.net' target='_blank' rel='nofollow ugc noopener noreferrer'>Wilderness Connect</a>, the authoritative
source for wilderness information online. Wilderness Connect also publishes two other map resources:</p><p></p><ul><li>An <a href='https://umontana.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=a415bca07f0a4bee9f0e894b0db5c3b6' target='_blank' rel='nofollow ugc noopener noreferrer'>interactive wilderness map</a> allows visitors to search for and explore all wilderness areas in the United States. </li><li>Fact-filled <a href='https://wilderness.net/visit-wilderness/maps.php' target='_blank' rel='nofollow ugc noopener noreferrer'>storymaps on the benefits of wilderness</a> illustrate how wilderness protects values including clean water, wildlife habitat, nearby recreation, cultural sites and more.</li></ul><span></span><p></p>

<p>Although wilderness areas are federally-owned, some areas
contain non-federal parcels within their boundaries. Non-federal lands within
some wilderness areas are included as part of this feature dataset as a
separate layer. Termed inholdings or edgeholdings, these lands are
privately-owned or owned by local governments, state governments or Indigenous Nations. Hundreds of inholdings and edgeholdings exist across the wilderness
system. Generally, however, they are small compared to the size of the wilderness
itself. Since the rules and regulations that apply to wilderness areas do not
apply to these non-federally-owned parcels, it is important for wilderness
visitors to know their location to avoid trespassing where access is not
allowed. The owners of inholdings and edgeholdings can develop these parcels
(as long as developments do not affect the character of the surrounding
wilderness lands) and they retain special and limited access to them, sometimes, but not always, by motorized means.</p>

Reynolds Creek Experimental Watershed, Idaho (Precipitation)

<p>An extensive precipitation database has been developed over the past 35 years with the first records starting in January 1962 and going through September 1996 from the Reynolds Creek Experimental Watershed located near the north end of the Owyhee Mountains in southwest Idaho.  Precipitation ranges from 236 mm on the lowest elevations at the north end of the watershed to 1123 mm at the southwest corner of the watershed.  The gauge network was changed in 1967-1968 from a single unshielded, universal-recording gauge at each location to the dual-gauge system that is presently used.  The dualgauge system consists of an unshielded and a shielded universal-recording gauge with orifices 3.05 m above the ground.  The number of dual-gauge sites was reduced from the original 46 in 1968 to 17 by 1996.  Also, several sites have been added and/or taken out of the network at various times for special studies.  There are continuous 35 year records available for 12 sites, 20-32 year records available for 8 sites, 10-19 year records available for 25 sites, and 4-9 year records for 8 sites for a total of 53 sites.  All of these data have been stored as breakpoint and hourly records in the USDA-ARS, Northwest Watershed Research Center database.  These breakpoint and hourly data are available.</p> <div><br>Resources in this dataset:</div><br><ul><li><p>Resource Title: Precipitation.</p> <p>File Name: precipitation.zip</p><p>Resource Description: Precipitation data</p></li></ul>

Data from: Update to the USDA-ARS Fixed-Wing Spray Nozzle Models

<p>Published in Transactions of the ASABE 58(2): 281-295 (doi: 10.13031/trans.58.10896). 2015 American Society of Agricultural and Biological Engineers.</p>
<p>The current USDA-ARS aerial spray nozzle models were updated to reflect both new standardized measurement methods and systems as well as to increase operational spray pressure, aircraft airspeed, and nozzle orientation angle limits. The new models were developed using both central composite design and custom design response surface methodologies, which provide excellent fits to independently measured data (R2 values ranging from 0.81 to 0.99) for all droplet size parameters. The new models also updated the droplet size classification ratings by adopting a previously recommended set of nozzles and operational pressures that provide similar data to ASABE Standard Reference nozzles but are evaluated under aerial application conditions (primarily airspeed). Generally, for flat fan and deflection type nozzles, the new models result in increases to predicted DV0.1 data (droplet diameter at which 10% of the total spray volume is contained in droplets of equal or lesser diameter), decreases in DV0.5 and DV0.9 data (similar to DV0.1 but 50% and 90% of total spray volume), and increases in the percent of spray contained in droplets of 200 µm diameter or smaller. With straight stream nozzles, the DV0.1, DV0.5, and DV0.9 trends tend to be reversed. Droplet size classifications with the new models for flat fan and deflector type nozzles tend to shift ratings downward, as compared to the current models, with classes centered around fine and medium sprays. However, with straight stream nozzles, droplet size classifications tend to shift ratings upward as compared to the current models. The updated models will be used to populate spreadsheet and mobile device software-based user interfaces to provide aerial applicators with droplet size information for an increased range of nozzles and operational settings, allowing for better nozzle selection and operational guidance.</p>
