Long Island Sound 2016 SOCECON

Description

These feature classes reside within the SOCECON Feature Data Set of the Long Island Sound 2016 ESI Geodatabase. They contain vector points and lines representing Socio-economic human-use resource data for Long Island Sound and adjacent lands and waters. The study area includes Long Island Sound, Peconic Bay, tributary watersheds, tidal tributaries, and freshwater streams and lakes, in New York and Connecticut. Features represented as points include Airports (A), Archaeological Sites (AS), Abandoned Vessels (AV), Beaches (B), Campgrounds (C), Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Risk Management Plan (RMP) Facilities (EPAF), Heliports, Historical Sites (HS), Historic Wrecks (HWR), Landfills (LF), NOAA facilities (NOAA), and Waste Disposal Sites (WD). Features represented as lines include Rail Routes (RR). Each ArcGIS each feature class (SOCECON POINTS, SOCECON LINES) has an attribute table, considered as an Entity or "Child Item" in this metadata record. Location-specific Type and Source information are stored in these related data tables, SOC_DAT and SOURCES (described below), which are stand-alone tables within the Geodatabase. This data set is a portion of the ESI data for Long Island Sound. 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. Additional human-use information is in other feature class themes within the SOCECON Directory, including NAVIGATION/MARINE (POINTS, LINES, and POLYGONS), PARKS/MANAGED AREA (POINTS and POLYGONS), POLITICAL/JURISDICTIONAL (POINTS and POLYGONS), RESOURCE MANAGEMENT (POINTS and POLYGONS), and NAT_HAZARD (POLYGONS).
