GL_Mackinac 2019 ESI NATURAL HAZARD Polygons

Description

This feature class resides within the SOCECON Feature Data Set of the Great Lakes - Straits of Mackinac - 2019 ESI geodatabase. It contains vector polygons representing natural hazard areas for the Great Lakes - Straits of Mackinac study area. The study area includes the Straits of Mackinac, nearby portions of Lake Michigan and Lake Huron, and adjacent lands and waters in northern Michigan. This data set contains information about the following resource: POLYGONS- flood hazard areas mapped as storm surge inundation areas. Object specific Type and Source information are stored in the related data tables, SOC_DAT and SOURCES (described below). These are stand-alone tables within the Geodatabase, designed to be used in conjunction with these spatial data layers. This data set is a portion of the ESI data for Great Lakes - Straits of Mackinac study area. 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.
