The U.S. Geological Survey has conducted geologic mapping to characterize the sea floor offshore of Massachusetts. The mapping was carried out using a Simrad Subsea EM 1000 Multibeam Echo Sounder on the Frederick G. Creed on four cruises conducted between 1994 and 1998. The mapping was conducted in cooperation with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and with support from the Canadian Hydrographic Service and the University of New Brunswick. The long-term goal of this mapping effort is to produce high-resolution geologic maps and a Geographic Information System (GIS) project that presents images and grids of bathymetry, shaded relief bathymetry, and backscatter intensity data from these surveys that will serve the needs of research, management and the public.

The Digital Geologic Map of Cape Cod National Seashore and Vicinity, Massachusetts is composed of GIS data layers complete with ArcMap 9.3 layer (.LYR) files, two ancillary GIS tables, a Map PDF document with ancillary map text, figures and tables, a FGDC metadata record and a 9.3 ArcMap (.MXD) Document that displays the digital map in 9.3 ArcGIS. The data were completed as a component of the Geologic Resources Inventory (GRI) program, a National Park Service (NPS) Inventory and Monitoring (I&M) funded program that is administered by the NPS Geologic Resources Division (GRD). Source geologic maps and data used to complete this GRI digital dataset were provided by the following: U.S. Geological Survey. Detailed information concerning the sources used and their contribution the GRI product are listed in the Source Citation sections(s) of this metadata record (caco_metadata.txt; available at http://nrdata.nps.gov/caco/nrdata/geology/gis/caco_metadata.xml). All GIS and ancillary tables were produced as per the NPS GRI Geology-GIS Geodatabase Data Model v. 2.1. (available at: http://science.nature.nps.gov/im/inventory/geology/GeologyGISDataModel.cfm). The GIS data is available as a 9.3 personal geodatabase (caco_geology.mdb), and as shapefile (.SHP) and DBASEIV (.DBF) table files. The GIS data projection is NAD83, UTM Zone 19N. That data is within the area of interest of Cape Cod National Seashore.

This map includes shoreline change data for the state of Massachusetts hosted by the Massachusetts Office of Coastal Zone Management.The active data layer in this map is Massachusetts Shoreline Change Transect (1970-2014) with short-term shoreline change rates. To view long-term rates, open map in Map Viewer to turn on layer.The Massachusetts Office of Coastal Zone Management launched the Shoreline Change Project in 1989 to identify erosion-prone areas of the coast. The shoreline position and change rate are used to inform management decisions regarding the erosion of coastal resources. In 2001, a shoreline from 1994 was added to calculate both long- and short-term shoreline change rates along ocean-facing sections of the Massachusetts coast. In 2013, two oceanfront shorelines for Massachusetts were added using 2008-9 color aerial orthoimagery and 2007 topographic lidar datasets obtained from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's Ocean Service, Coastal Services Center. In 2018 two new mean high water (MHW) shorelines for Massachusetts were extracted from lidar collected between 2010 and 2014 (described below). 2018 addition shoreline 1The North Shore and South Coast uses 2010 lidar data collected by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Joint Airborne Lidar Bathymetry Technical Center of Expertise. The South Shore and Outer Cape uses 2011 lidar data collected by the U.S. Geological Survey's (USGS) National Geospatial Program Office. Nantucket and Martha’s Vineyard uses 2012 lidar data collected by the USACE (post Sandy)from a 2012 USACE Post Sandy Topographic lidar survey. 2018 addition shoreline 2The North Shore, Boston, South Shore, Cape Cod Bay, Outer Cape, South Cape, Nantucket, Martha’s Vineyard, and the South Coast (around Buzzards Bay to the Rhode Island Border) is from 2013-14 lidar data collected by the (USGS) Coastal and Marine Geology Program. This 2018 update of the rate of shoreline change in Massachusetts includes two types of rates. Some of the rates include a proxy-datum bias correction, this is indicated in the filename with “PDB”. The rates that do not account for this correction have “NB” in their file names. The proxy-datum bias is applied because in some areas a proxy shoreline (like a High Water Line shoreline) has a bias when compared to a datum shoreline (like a Mean High Water shoreline). In areas where it exists, this bias should be accounted for when calculating rates using a mix of proxy and datum shorelines. This issue is explained further in Ruggiero and List (2009) and in the process steps of the metadata associated with the rates. This release includes both long-term (~150 years) and short term (~30 years) rates. Files associated with the long-term rates have “LT” in their names, files associated with short-term rates have “ST” in their names.

The Broadband Navigator, a tool for participating in the NTIA mandated BEAD Challenge Process, includes the Interactive Mapping Portal and the Challenge Hub. Broadband Equity, Access, and Deployment (BEAD) is a program created to expand broadband access. The program is administered by the State of Massachusetts in partnership with the National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA). The Massachusetts Broadband Institute is deploying its $1.559 billion BEAD allocation through competitive grants to bring service to broadband serviceable locations (BSLs) that lack reliable broadband service. The Navigator fulfills two NTIA requirements – an interactive mapping portal and a user authenticated challenge hub.Interactive Mapping PortalThe Massachusetts Broadband Map is designed to allow potential grantees, stakeholder organizations, and members of the public a way to view availability and funding information for the BEAD program across the State of Massachusetts.All data in the portal is aligned with BEAD definitions. BEAD defines reliable broadband service as a connection at or above 100 Mbps downstream and 20 Mbps upstream. Accordingly, service below this standard is considered unserved (below 25/3 Mbps) or underserved (above 25/3 Mbps but below 100/20 Mbps). Due to inconsistent quality, technologies such as satellite or unlicensed fixed wireless are also not considered reliable broadband service and are excluded from the portal. Finally, there are some locations that the NTIA and the State of Massachusetts believe require higher speeds. Community anchor institutions (CAIs) are entities that facilitate greater use of broadband service by vulnerable population. CAIs are shown on the map like other locations but are considered unserved unless they have access to a 1 Gbps synchronous connection.The map is not a final determination of eligibility. The eligibility determinations published on the map are subject to a state challenge process. Interested parties may submit evidence to change the eligibility status of a BSL or BSLs. The map will be updated during the challenge process to show this challenge status. Once the challenge process is complete and all challenges have been rebutted and adjudicated the map will show the final eligibility determination for each location before the BEAD program begins accepting applications.mapfeedback@masstech.orgChallenge HubPermissible challengers (units of local and tribal governments, non-profits, and internet service providers) may register for access to the Challenge Hub where they can view and challenge the broadband coverage determinations (served, underserved, unserved) for each BSL. The Challenge Hub will be used by challengers and the Massachusetts Broadband Institute for submitting, rebutting, adjudicating, and closing challenges.Data InformationAll location and serviceability information in the map is based on FCC data. Location data is based on the FCC Broadband Serviceable Location Fabric (version 4.0). Availability data is based on ISP submissions to the FCC with an effective date of December 31, 2024, and was downloaded with updates as of May 14, 2024. Data for enforceable commitments (locations already funded by local, state, or federal programs) is based on the FCC funding map (https://fundingmap.fcc.gov/home), the NTIA’s deduplication data as posted in the National Broadband Availability Map (NBAM) and state sources.Demographic data is downloaded from two Census Bureau sources. 1) Population estimates and racial and ethnic breakdowns come from 2020 P.L. 94-171 Redistricting Data.

The U.S. Geological Survey and the University of Massachusetts at Amherst (UMass Amherst), in cooperation with the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (MassDEP), began a series of studies in 2019 to develop a web-based statewide hydraulic modeling tool to provide preliminary culvert designs to support stream crossing replacement projects in Massachusetts. This Web Map Service (WMS) has been developed to query data from the hydraulic models at select stream crossing locations using the StreamStats web application for Massachusetts. The WMS contains stream crossing point locations with hydrology and hydraulic data tables and associated watershed polygons. These stream crossing locations were derived from the North Atlantic Aquatic Connectivity Collaborative data center (NAACC Data Center). Preliminary culvert designs for three-sided box, conspan arch, and a pipe culvert have been modeled using the U.S. Army Corps of Engineer’s Hydrologic Engineering Center’s River Analysis System (HEC-RAS) software with cross-sectional and channel geometry data derived from high-resolution light detection and ranging (lidar) Digital Elevation Models (DEM). The WMS layer provides the ability to generate reports in the StreamStats web application for Massachusetts at the stream crossing locations for site _location information, preliminary culvert designs, flood flows, bankfull channel geometry, aquatic habitat and stream connectivity restoration potential, basin characteristics, and other select information.

The Massachusetts Coastal Zone data layer was compiled by the Massachusetts Office of Coastal Zone Management (CZM) to represent the Massachusetts coastal zone as defined in the October 2011 Massachusetts Office of Coastal Zone Management Policy Guide ("Policy Guide"). Appendix 2 of the Policy Guide contains the most recent description of the official Massachusetts coastal zone and should be used in connection with the following two sources depicting maps of the boundary: (1) the CZM Coastal Atlas (Volume II of the 1977 Massachusetts Coastal Zone Management Program and Draft Environmental Impact Statement) and (2) this data layer developed by CZM to depict the coastal zone in digital map format. This boundary was created per the Federal Coastal Zone Management Act (CZMA) of 1972 (Public Law 92-583, 16 U.S.C. 1451-1456). The boundary description is the specification of the major roads, rail lines, other visible rights-of-way, or coordinates marking the inland boundary of the coastal zone. The actual boundary is 100 feet inland of the landward side of the described line, with the exception of municipal boundaries, where the municipal boundary is the limit of the boundary description. This dataset represents the actual boundary.Please see https://www.mass.gov/info-details/massachusetts-coastal-zone-boundary for more details.\Map service also available.

The 2016 Massachusetts Small MS4 General Permit requires that Municipal Separate Storm Sewer Systems (MS4s) be mapped. With MS4s interconnected across properties, maps are developed by different organizations which makes it difficult to determine where stormwater runoff is collecting and how stormwater infrastructure is managed. Through interviews and geospatial data analysis, we developed recommendations for facilitating the collaboration and integration of geospatial data between Central Massachusetts Regional Stormwater Coalition communities and the Massachusetts Department of Transportation.

Background and Data Limitations The Massachusetts 1830 map series represents a unique data source that depicts land cover and cultural features during the historical period of widespread land clearing for agricultural. To our knowledge, Massachusetts is the only state in the US where detailed land cover information was comprehensively mapped at such an early date. As a result, these maps provide unusual insight into land cover and cultural patterns in 19th century New England. However, as with any historical data, the limitations and appropriate uses of these data must be recognized: (1) These maps were originally developed by many different surveyors across the state, with varying levels of effort and accuracy. (2) It is apparent that original mapping did not follow consistent surveying or drafting protocols; for instance, no consistent minimum mapping unit was identified or used by different surveyors; as a result, whereas some maps depict only large forest blocks, others also depict small wooded areas, suggesting that numerous smaller woodlands may have gone unmapped in many towns. Surveyors also were apparently not consistent in what they mapped as ‘woodlands’: comparison with independently collected tax valuation data from the same time period indicates substantial lack of consistency among towns in the relative amounts of ‘woodlands’, ‘unimproved’ lands, and ‘unimproveable’ lands that were mapped as ‘woodlands’ on the 1830 maps. In some instances, the lack of consistent mapping protocols resulted in substantially different patterns of forest cover being depicted on maps from adjoining towns that may in fact have had relatively similar forest patterns or in woodlands that ‘end’ at a town boundary. (3) The degree to which these maps represent approximations of ‘primary’ woodlands (i.e., areas that were never cleared for agriculture during the historical period, but were generally logged for wood products) varies considerably from town to town, depending on whether agricultural land clearing peaked prior to, during, or substantially after 1830. (4) Despite our efforts to accurately geo-reference and digitize these maps, a variety of additional sources of error were introduced in converting the mapped information to electronic data files (see detailed methods below). Thus, we urge considerable caution in interpreting these maps. Despite these limitations, the 1830 maps present an incredible wealth of information about land cover patterns and cultural features during the early 19th century, a period that continues to exert strong influence on the natural and cultural landscapes of the region.
