Description

This data set contains vector polygons depicting locations of management areas, military installations, Nature Conservancy properties, National Estuarine Research Reserves (NERR), National parks, state parks, state protection areas, and wildlife refuges. Vector points are used to represent National Guard units in Chesapeake Bay and the Outer Coasts of Maryland and Virginia. As a whole, the ESI data characterize the marine and coastal environments and wildlife by their sensitivity to spilled oil, and include information for three main components: shoreline habitats, sensitive biological resources, and human-use resources. The entirety of the ESI Human-Use data layers consists of: PARKS-MANAGED AREAS Polygons, Points; NAVIGATION-MARINE Polygons, Points, Lines; POLITICAL-JURISDICTIONAL Polygons, Points, Lines; RESOURCE MANAGEMENT Polygons, Points; SOCECON Polygons, Points, Lines; and NATURAL HAZARD Polygons.
