Deepwater Horizon MC252 GIS data from the Environmental Response Management Application (ERMA) collected and/or used during the DWH response between 1989-11-15 and 2015-11-30 in the Northern Gulf of Mexico

Description

This collection contains Environmental Response Management Application (ERMA) GIS layers used as part of the Programmatic Damage Assessment and Restoration Plan (PDARP), including outputs from Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) imagery, helicopter flights surveys (observations) of marine mammal and turtles, Mississippi Canyon 252 wellhead location, wellhead buffers, and supporting bathymetric contour data, infrared and photographic images from EPA's airborne spectral photometric environmental collection technology (ASPECT) with geospatial, chemical and radiological information, boom-related response observations, nearshore tissue and sediment samples, forensic and Total Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon (TPAH) results, stranded oil forensic classification data, and other types of chemistry data, Submerged Aquatic Vegetation (SAV) classifications, seabed sampling and transect data, sample locations for workplan cruises, deep-sea area injury toxicity results and total polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (TPAH) results, habitat injury zones, footprint impacts on mesophotic reef resources and other types of benthic habitat data, overflight imagery of the flight path for the NOAA King Air flights taken in October of 2010 and contains post-oiling images collection in support of Natural Resource Damage Assessment (NRDA) marsh monitoring, turtle survey overflight observations, loggerhead sea turtle density grids, sea turtle capture observations and transect analysis, sea turtle strandings, as well as probabilities of oiling and other related datasets, trawl locations, Southeast Area Monitoring and Assessment Program (SEAMAP) plankton trawls, workplan cruise samples, and other related data, delineation of the areas impacted with additional fresh water due to the opening of the diversions in 2011 as part of the Deepwater Horizon oil spill response, surface shoreline oiling characteristics as observed by field surveys performed by Shoreline Cleanup Assessment Techniques (SCAT) teams, marine mammal surveys, observations, telemetry and abundance data including Cytochrome P450 (CYP) dolphin analysis, population and abundance datasets, telemetry, wildlife and aerial observations, bathymetry estimates, and other related Marine Mammal field observations and surveys, presence and spatial distribution of synthetic-based mud (SBM) in deep-sea sediments around the Macondo well, surface sediment, residual kriging, and other oiling analytical data, oyster recruitment and abundance sampling results, estimates of subtidal habitat, estimates of oyster resource, seafloor substrate mapping layers, percent cover, nearshore and subtidal quadrat abundance data, and other related datasets, shoreline exposure model for beach and marsh oiling, wave exposure, habitat classifications, wetland monitoring datasets, and related shoreline datasets, compilation of all the individual Texture Classifying Neural Network Algorithm (TCNNA) days from Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) satellite polygons, a variety of cumulative oiling datasets including the Texture Classifying Neural Network Algorithm (TCNNA) from Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) satellite polygon layers, burn locations, dispersant operation datasets including estimations of where aerial dispersants were applied via aerial flight paths, dispersant airport locations, daily flight tracks, and vessel dispersant tracks, as well as locations of subsurface dispersant data, marine mammal surveys, observations, telemetry and abundance data collected including synoptic surveys, helicopter surveys, Cytochrome P450 (CYP) dolphin analysis, population and abundance datasets, telemetry, wildlife and aerial observations, bathymetry estimates, other related marine mammal field observations and surveys, and sea turtle data, and other data related to the Deepwater Horizon oil spill in the Northern Gulf of Mexico. Some of these data were collected during the response to the Mississippi Canyon 252 Deepwater Horizon oil spill in the Northern Gulf of Mexico.
