Maine and New Hampshire 2016 HYDRO Polygons

Description

This data set contains vector polygons representing the coastal shoreline and hydrography used in the creation of the Environmental Sensitivity Index (ESI) for Maine and New Hampshire. 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. See also the HYDROL (Hydrography Lines), ESIL (ESI Shoreline Types - Lines), ESIP (ESI Shoreline Types - Polygons) data layer for additional shoreline/hydrography information.
