The goal of NOAA's Precision Navigation initiative is to make marine navigation safer and more efficient. One component of this project is working with ports to identify their data needs and then addressing them on a port-specific basis. This map shows the locations where NOAA is actively engaging in this process. As the project expands, more ports will be added to this map.One component used to determine whether a port was a good candidate for Precision Navigation is the occurrences of allisions, collisions, and groundings within the port. The U.S. Coast Guard has a database of Marine Information for Safety and Law Enforcement (MISLE). These are the data used for the "incidents" layers. See the Precision Navigation Story Map for more information.

This Web Map is the base of the main NOAA Hydrographic Survey Projects 2023 Storymap that serves as an index for the regional hydrographic survey projects: Atlantic Coast, Pacific Coast, Gulf of Mexico, Great Lakes, Alaska and Pacific Ocean. NOAA's Office of Coast Survey is responsible for planning hydrographic surveys. Planned hydrographic surveys are derived from NOAA's Hydrographic survey priorities, constituent requests submitted through navigational managers, and other factors. The "planned" hydrographic surveys REST service at https://gis.charttools.noaa.gov/arcgis/rest/services/Hydrographic_Services/Planned_Survey_Areas/MapServer provides access to the planned survey areas. The image service REST endpoint is https://gis.charttools.noaa.gov/arcgis/rest/services/Hydrographic_Services/HydrographicSurvey_ImageService_2023/ImageServer and shows weekly progress updates for the current year’s hydrographic surveys through a published mosaic dataset.

Instructions: Download the zip file by clicking on the thumbnail or the Download button.Unzip the file to an appropriate location on your computer (C:\Users\YourUsername\Documents\ArcGIS\Projects is a common location for ArcGIS Pro Projects).Open the USNG Map book Project File (APRX).If the Task is not already open by default, navigate to Catalog > Tasks > and open 'Create a US National Grid Map Book' Follow the instructions! This task will have some automated processes and models that run in the background but you should pay close attention to the instructions so you also learn all of the steps. This will allow you to innovate and customize the template for your own use.FAQsWhat is US National Grid? The US National Grid (USNG) is a point and area reference system that provides for actionable location information in a uniform format. Its use helps achieve consistent situational awareness across all levels of government, disciplines, and threats & hazards – regardless of your role in an incident.One of the key resources NAPSG makes available to support emergency responders is a basic USNG situational awareness application. See the NAPSG Foundation and USNG Center websites for more information.What is an ArcGIS Pro Task? A task is a set of preconfigured steps that guide you and others through a workflow or business process. A task can be used to implement a best-practice workflow, improve the efficiency of a workflow, or create a series of interactive tutorial steps. See "What is a Task?" for more information.Do I need to be proficient in ArcGIS Pro to use this template? We feel that this is a good starting point if you have already taken the ArcGIS Pro QuickStart Tutorials. While the task will automate many steps, you will want to get comfortable with the map layouts and other new features in ArcGIS Pro.Is this template free? This resources is provided at no-cost, but also with no guarantees of quality assurance or support at this time. Can't I just use ArcMap? Ok - here you go. USNG 1:24K Map Template for ArcMapKnown Limitations and BugsZoom To: It appears there may be a bug or limitation with automatically zooming the map to the proper extent, so get comfortable with navigation or zoom to feature via the attribute table.FGDC Compliance: We are seeking feedback from experts in the field to make sure that this meets minimum requirements. At this point in time we do not claim to have any official endorsement of standardization. File Size: Highly detailed basemaps can really add up and contribute to your overall file size, especially over a large area / many pages. Consider making a simple "Basemap" of street centerlines and building footprints.We will do the best we can to address limitations and are very open to feedback!

The Inland Electronic Navigational Charts (IENC) dataset is updated bi-monthly by the US Army Corps (USACE)/Army Geospatial Center (AGC), and part of U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT)/Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS) National Transportation Atlas Database (NTAD). There is a partial delivery on the 1st and 15th business day of a month. If there is a need for a special chart delivery, occasionally there will be updates outside of the delivery cycle. The charts with data changes are released either as new editions or updates to existing IENCs on a regular delivery cycle. These IENCs were developed from available data used in maintenance of Navigation channels. These vector data, that make up the charts, can be downloaded as a geodatabase here: https://ienccloud.us/ienc/products/files/U37/ienc_master_dataset_gdb/USACE_IENC_Master_Service_gdb.zip. In addition, web mapping services of the feature classes/datasets can be found here: https://ienccloud.us/arcgis/rest/services/IENC_Feature_Classes. Users of these IENCs should be aware that some features and attribute information could have significant inaccuracies due to changing waterway conditions, inaccurate source data, or approximations introduced during chart compilation. Caution is urged in use of these IENCs or derived products for navigation planning or operation, or any decisions pertaining to or affecting safety of vessel operation. Only charts downloaded from the USACE chart server, https://ienccloud.us, and used in an Electronic Chart Display Information System (ECDIS) or Electronic Chart System (ECS), or official government chart books are suitable for navigation.

One of the first port-specific Precision Navigation projects is currently under way in the ports of New York and New Jersey. These ports provide access to one of the most concentrated and affluent consumer markets in the world. One of the metrics that NOAA is using to determine which ports should be prioritized for Precision Navigation projects is the occurrence of maritime accidents such as allisions, collisions, and groundings. An allision is when a moving object strikes a stationary object such as a ship hitting a bridge as it passes underneath. These data were taking from the US Army Corps of Engineers database on marine accidents. This map layer is used in the Precision Navigation story map which provides information on NOAA's Precision Navigation initiative.

The first port-specific Precision Navigation project was implemented in the Port of Long Beach, California. The pilots who navigate the Port of Long Beach brought their navigation issue to NOAA's attention and provided the impetus for what would become Precision Navigation.

What does the data show?

The data shows the annual average of precipitation amount (mm) for the 1991-2020 period from HadUK gridded data. It is provided on a 12km British National Grid (BNG).

Limitations of the data

We recommend the use of multiple grid cells or an average of grid cells around a point of interest to help users get a sense of the variability in the area. This will provide a more robust set of values for informing decisions based on the data.

What are the naming conventions and how do I explore the data?

This data contains a field for the average over the 1991-2020 period. It is named 'pr' (precipitation).

To understand how to explore the data, see this page: https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/457e7a2bc73e40b089fac0e47c63a578

This layer shows population broken down by race and Hispanic origin. This is shown by tract, county, and state boundaries. This service is updated annually to contain the most currently released American Community Survey (ACS) 5-year data, and contains estimates and margins of error. There are also additional calculated attributes related to this topic, which can be mapped or used within analysis. This layer is symbolized to show the predominant race living within an area. To see the full list of attributes available in this service, go to the "Data" tab, and choose "Fields" at the top right. Current Vintage: 2019-2023ACS Table(s): B03002Data downloaded from: Census Bureau's API for American Community Survey Date of API call: December 12, 2024National Figures: data.census.govThe United States Census Bureau's American Community Survey (ACS):About the SurveyGeography & ACSTechnical DocumentationNews & UpdatesThis ready-to-use layer can be used within ArcGIS Pro, ArcGIS Online, its configurable apps, dashboards, Story Maps, custom apps, and mobile apps. Data can also be exported for offline workflows. For more information about ACS layers, visit the FAQ. Please cite the Census and ACS when using this data.Data Note from the Census:Data are based on a sample and are subject to sampling variability. The degree of uncertainty for an estimate arising from sampling variability is represented through the use of a margin of error. The value shown here is the 90 percent margin of error. The margin of error can be interpreted as providing a 90 percent probability that the interval defined by the estimate minus the margin of error and the estimate plus the margin of error (the lower and upper confidence bounds) contains the true value. In addition to sampling variability, the ACS estimates are subject to nonsampling error (for a discussion of nonsampling variability, see Accuracy of the Data). The effect of nonsampling error is not represented in these tables.Data Processing Notes:This layer is updated automatically when the most current vintage of ACS data is released each year, usually in December. The layer always contains the latest available ACS 5-year estimates. It is updated annually within days of the Census Bureau's release schedule. Click here to learn more about ACS data releases.Boundaries come from the US Census TIGER geodatabases, specifically, the National Sub-State Geography Database (named tlgdb_(year)_a_us_substategeo.gdb). Boundaries are updated at the same time as the data updates (annually), and the boundary vintage appropriately matches the data vintage as specified by the Census. These are Census boundaries with water and/or coastlines erased for cartographic and mapping purposes. For census tracts, the water cutouts are derived from a subset of the 2020 Areal Hydrography boundaries offered by TIGER. Water bodies and rivers which are 50 million square meters or larger (mid to large sized water bodies) are erased from the tract level boundaries, as well as additional important features. For state and county boundaries, the water and coastlines are derived from the coastlines of the 2023 500k TIGER Cartographic Boundary Shapefiles. These are erased to more accurately portray the coastlines and Great Lakes. The original AWATER and ALAND fields are still available as attributes within the data table (units are square meters).The States layer contains 52 records - all US states, Washington D.C., and Puerto RicoCensus tracts with no population that occur in areas of water, such as oceans, are removed from this data service (Census Tracts beginning with 99).Percentages and derived counts, and associated margins of error, are calculated values (that can be identified by the "_calc_" stub in the field name), and abide by the specifications defined by the American Community Survey.Field alias names were created based on the Table Shells file available from the American Community Survey Summary File Documentation page.Negative values (e.g., -4444...) have been set to null, with the exception of -5555... which has been set to zero. These negative values exist in the raw API data to indicate the following situations:The margin of error column indicates that either no sample observations or too few sample observations were available to compute a standard error and thus the margin of error. A statistical test is not appropriate.Either no sample observations or too few sample observations were available to compute an estimate, or a ratio of medians cannot be calculated because one or both of the median estimates falls in the lowest interval or upper interval of an open-ended distribution.The median falls in the lowest interval of an open-ended distribution, or in the upper interval of an open-ended distribution.
