Shoreline Types - R7 - CDFW [ds3115]

This feature contains vector lines representing the shoreline and coastal habitats of California. Line segments are classified according to the Environmental Sensitivity Index (ESI) classification system and are a compilation of the ESI data from the most recent ESI atlas publications. The ESI data includes information for three main components: shoreline habitats, sensitive biological resources, and human-use resources. This California dataset contains only the ESI shoreline data layer and is a merged set of individual ESI data sets to cover the entire California coast. For many parts of the California shoreline, the NOAA-ESI database lists several shoreline types present at a given location, described from landward to seaward. A simplified singular classification [Map_Class] was created to generalize the most dominant features of the multiple shore type attributes present in the raw data. More information can be found at the source citation at ESI Guidelines | response.restoration.noaa.gov Attributes: Line: Type of geographic feature (H: Hydrography, P: Pier, S: Shoreline) Most_sensitive: If multiple shoreline types appear in ESI classification, this field represents the highest value (most sensitive type); otherwise it is the same value as the ESI field. Shore_code: The ESI shoreline type. In many cases shorelines are ranked with multiple codes, such as "6B/3A" (listed landward to seaward). Source: Original year of ESI data. Esi_description: Concatenation of shore type descriptions (listed landward to seaward) Shoretype_1: Numeric classification for the first (most landward) ESI type. Shoretype_1_name: Physical description for the first ESI type. Shoretype_2: Numeric classification for the second ESI type. Shoretype_2_name: Physical description for the second ESI type Shoretype_3: Numeric classification for the third (most seaward) ESI type.

To facilitate planning, the MLPA Initiative, a public-private partnership, was formed and the state was divided into five planning regions (four coastal and the San Francisco Bay), each with its own MPA planning process. All four coastal regions have now completed their individual planning processes, leading to the statewide implementation of California's MPA network along the coast.

NLCD 2013 Land Cover California Subset

<div style='text-align:Left;'><div><div><p><span>The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), in partnership with several federal agencies, has developed and released five National Land Cover Database (NLCD) products over the past two decades: NLCD 1992, 2001, 2006, 2011, and 2016. The 2016 release saw landcover created for additional years of 2003, 2008, and 2013. These products provide spatially explicit and reliable information on the Nation’s land cover and land cover change. To continue the legacy of NLCD and further establish a long-term monitoring capability for the Nation’s land resources, the USGS has designed a new generation of NLCD products named NLCD 2019. The NLCD 2019 design aims to provide innovative, consistent, and robust methodologies for production of a multi-temporal land cover and land cover change database from 2001 to 2019 at 2–3-year intervals. Comprehensive research was conducted and resulted in developed strategies for NLCD 2019: continued integration between impervious surface and all landcover products with impervious surface being directly mapped as developed classes in the landcover, a streamlined compositing process for assembling and preprocessing based on Landsat imagery and geospatial ancillary datasets; a multi-source integrated training data development and decision-tree based land cover classifications; a temporally, spectrally, and spatially integrated land cover change analysis strategy; a hierarchical theme-based post-classification and integration protocol for generating land cover and change products; a continuous fields biophysical parameters modeling method; and an automated scripted operational system for the NLCD 2019 production. The performance of the developed strategies and methods were tested in twenty composite referenced areas throughout the conterminous U.S. An overall accuracy assessment from the 2016 publication give a 91% overall landcover accuracy, with the developed classes also showing a 91% accuracy in overall developed. Results from this study confirm the robustness of this comprehensive and highly automated procedure for NLCD 2019 operational mapping. Questions about the NLCD 2019 land cover product can be directed to the NLCD 2019 land cover mapping team at USGS EROS, Sioux Falls, SD (605) 594-6151 or mrlc@usgs.gov.

Sacramento River Geomorphic Atlas, Red Bluff to Colusa, California (1896–2012)

The Sacramento River Geomorphic Atlas (1896–2012) (SRGA) documents the geomorphology of the middle reach of the Sacramento River from Red Bluff to Colusa, California, shown in Figure 1. The SRGA was created using a combination of geologic maps, U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) topographic maps, U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) and National Agriculture Imagery Program (NAIP) imagery, light detection and ranging (LiDAR) data, other aerial imagery, historical data, and fieldwork performed by California Department of Water Resources (DWR) staff. 

The data are presented in a series of maps and imagery showing Pre-Shasta Dam Meanders (Series A), Post-Shasta Dam Meanders (Series B), All Meanders (Series C), Geology (Series D), DEM/LiDAR (Series E), Bank Erosion Characterization (Series F), and Pre- and Post-Shasta Dam Bank Erosion survey sites (Series G). Channel locations are approximate and subject to cumulative errors in the original mapping, scanning, georectification, and digitization process. Depending on the series of maps, other data are also shown, such as bank protection, levees, river mile markers, meander scrolls, paleo channels, and the modern and historical meander belts. Figure 2 shows the general legend and the geologic legend for the map series. For reference, Figures 1 and 2 are also shown at the beginning of each map series. Additional data presented in the SRGA include meander avulsion identification, bank protection identification, river sinuosity, and centerline length.

ACE addresses both terrestrial and aquatic data. The ACE model combines and analyzes terrestrial information in a 2.5 square mile hexagon grid and aquatic information at the HUC12 watershed level across the state to produce a series of maps for use in non-regulatory evaluation of conservation priorities in California. The model addresses as many of CDFWs statewide conservation and recreational mandates as feasible using high quality data sources.
