This data set is intended to be paired with the CBRS Polygons and CBRS Prohibitions data sets to illustrate the stated horizontal accuracy of the boundaries therein. Users should pair this data with the CBRS Polygons or CBRS Prohibitions data and an orthoimage when inspecting areas that are within or in close proximity to the CBRS. Users are advised to contact the Service for an official determination as to whether a particular property or structure that falls either partially or completely within the CBRS Buffer Zone is located within the CBRS. For more information, see the metadata for the CBRS Polygons and CBRS Prohibitions available at https://www.fws.gov/media/digital-coastal-barrier-resources-system-boundaries.

Global warming is perhaps the most critical issue of the 21st century. It is already accelerating sea level rise, leading to beach erosion, property losses, and increasing Rhode Island's vulnerability to hurricanes and floods. Climate change may adversely affect food supply, public health, and the economy. Rhode Island is committed to reducing its carbon footprint by using renewable energy resources, primarily offshore wind farms, to meet 15 percent of its energy needs.

From 2008 to 2010, through a public policy process that includes scientific research and stakeholder involvement, the Ocean SAMP will make Rhode Island the first state in the nation to zone its offshore waters for diverse activities including renewable energy development. This process will also protect current uses and habitats through zones for commercial fishing; critical habitats for fish, marine animals, and birds; marine transport; and more.

This is an ESRI (ArcGIS) shapefile of a 50 km buffer surrounding the Upper San Francisco Estuary hydrodynamic subregions (see GIS Shapefile of Hydrodynamic Subregions of the Upper San Francisco Estuary data package). Contaminants can also be imported to the Estuary from upstream sources. As a rule-of-thumb, water travels approximately 50 km (30 miles) in a day. Therefore I delineated a drainage area that extends 50 km upstream from the boundary of the subregions (or until reaching the watershed divide where streams drain the western slope of the Coast Ranges directly into San Francisco Bay. This buffer area does not overlap with or include the hydrodynamic subregions.

A polygon feature representing either an intermittent stream or a wetland that does not satisfy the criteria of an RPA. This identification is mandated through the Chesapeake Bay Program requirements and the City's Environmental Management Ordinance (Article XIII). This represents a 50 foot requirement for a natively vegetated buffer adjacent these sensitive areas. Impervious surfaces are prohibited in this buffer area except under special circumstances.

This layer depicts the Chesapeake Bay Preservation Act (CBPA) areas in Hampton Roads, Virginia, categorized into three delineations: Resource Protection Areas (RPA) include both tidal and connected non-tidal wetlands, as well as tidal shores, and a landward riparian buffer of 100 feet which has the greatest potential to protect and benefit water quality. Resource Management Areas (RMA) area adjacent to the RPA and have the potential to damage water quality without proper management. Only those RMA areas that have a designated boundary are in included in this layer. Some localities define the RMA as the remaining area of the locality that is not in the RPA and therefore no separate boundary is needed.Intensely Developed Areas (IDA) must be designated in the city or county code. Not all localities have designated IDAs. An IDA overlays redevelopment areas that may otherwise be subjected to stricter enforcement of the RPA.Note that the areas provided in this layer are meant for general planning use. Use the CBPA Address Locator application to see if a property is in or near the CBPA. Consult with local CBPA staff for questions about the determination and enforcement of CBPA areas.

300 ft upland buffer of the Cape Cod Commission's Pond Atlas Ponds.

Retired 8/18/2021 since it takes so long to draw. Use the vector tile layer instead.The following length statistics reflect the geometric length of hydrology features that were generated using a National Elevation Dataset (NED) DEM with the ArcHydro extension in ArcMap. The analysis inputs required twenty-five (25) acre accumulation prior to beginning a stream line. Stream orders were assigned using the Strahler method via a toolbox available through ArcGIS. These orders were manually validated.

Feature layer containing a 600 foot buffer based on Off Premise Signs in Sioux Falls, South Dakota.

The purpose of this feature class is to show the relative location of all known bat roosts in the Lake Tahoe Basin. This inlcudes data through the 2017 field season.

A 5 meter buffered boundary created from the Zoning Downtown Designated Streets lines. The data was designed to intersect with the neighboring lots along each segment of the designated streets.The review of the Zoning Regulations of 1958, as amended, was a project that began in 2007. The new Zoning Regulations of 2016 were published on March 4, 2016 and effective on September 6, 2016.The purposes of the Downtown (D) zones (D-1-R, D-2, D-3, D-4, D-4-R, D-5,D-5-R, D-6, D-6-R, D-7, and D-8) are to provide for the orderly development and use of land and structures in areas the Comprehensive Plan generally characterized as:(a) Central Washington; or(b) Appropriate for a high-density mix of office, retail, service, residential, entertainment, lodging, institutional, and other uses, often grouped into neighborhoods with distinct identities.Detailed information at http://dcoz.dc.gov.Created as part of the Zoning Regulations of 2016.

This feature class represents combined 200ft and 1000ft beach buffers derived from Intertidal_PL. The process for creating this combined buffer is as follows: Select from Intertidal_PL where Description in ( 'CHK' , 'INT', 'EST', 'UIT' ) and buffer it 1000 ft, then dissolve all, so it's just a big ol' blob. Use the same selected set from Intertidal_PL and buffer it 200 feet, then dissolve all.Then select from Intertidal_PL where Description in ( 'CHK' , 'SW', 'EST' ) and erase those areas from the big buffered blobs. (I do not erase the INT areas because that might leave gaps and slivers along the shoreline above the water.)Add a field called Buff1000ft to the 1000 foot buffer and populate it with 'Y'. Add a field called Buff200ft to the 200 foot buffer and populate it with 'Y'. Identity the 200 ft buffer onto the 1000 ft buffer.Select where the field Buff200ft is blank and populate it with 'N'. (This would be the area within the 1000 ft buffer that falls outside of the 200 ft buffer.)The resulting buffer polygons can end up being wider than 1000ft or 200ft respectively in some places (beach…etc), but the intent of the polygons is to go landward 1000ft/200ft – the additional width is due to the beach/island/peninsula type stuff. The reason I originally started choosing to buffer CHK, INT, EST, and UIT was because I was concerned that buffering only INT might lead to odd gaps.

The Natural Filter Buffer Targeting layers identify riparian forest and grass buffer opportunities by county. Land use and hydrology characteristics were used to identify potential riparian buffer locations. These data are inputs into the Natural Filter Buffer Priorities for Water Quality models.This is a MD iMAP hosted service layer.

Spatial data supporting appropriately located and designed woodland creation where this will provide dappled shade to improve aquatic ecology by reducing summer water temperatures and benefiting wildlife dispersal (for example, otter) along the corridors of habitat this creates.

The data represents a 50 m buffer around patches of surface waterbodies (rivers) with little or no existing riparian shade.

Sections of river with the least amount of shading from riparian vegetation are considered to be priority areas for tree planting and therefore candidates for incentives such as additional grant aid to encourage woodland creation to provide greater shading in the future.Data input sources:
