The geographic data are built from the Technical Information Management System (TIMS). TIMS consists of two separate databases: an attribute database and a spatial database. The attribute information for offshore activities is stored in the TIMS database. The spatial database is a combination of the ARC/INFO and FINDER databases and contains all the coordinates and topology information for geographic features. The attribute and spatial databases are interconnected through the use of common data elements in both databases, thereby creating the spatial datasets. The data in the mapping files are made up of straight-line segments. If an arc existed in the original data, it has been replaced with a series of straight lines that approximate the arc. The Gulf of America OCS Region stores all its mapping data in longitude and latitude format. All coordinates are in NAD 27. Data can be obtained in three types of digital formats: INTERACTIVE MAP: The ArcGIS web maps are an interactive display of geographic information, containing a basemap, a set of data layers (many of which include interactive pop-up windows with information about the data), an extent, navigation tools to pan and zoom, and additional tools for geospatial analysis. SHP: A Shapefile is a digital vector (non-topological) storage format for storing geometric _location and associated attribute information. Shapefiles can support point, line, and area features with attributes held in a dBASE format file. GEODATABASE: An ArcGIS geodatabase is a collection of geographic datasets of various types held in a common file system folder, a Microsoft Access database, or a multiuser relational DBMS (such as Oracle, Microsoft SQL Server, PostgreSQL, Informix, or IBM DB2). The geodatabase is the native data structure for ArcGIS and is the primary data format used for editing and data management.

This is a subset of World Biomass Image Layer to focus on Central Asia and Caucasus Region. Use this web map to visualize and understand the Biomass for that region. Use image layer for your analysis. Plants play a central role in the carbon cycle by absorbing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and incorporating it in the structure of the plant. Globally living plants contain 500 billion metric tons of carbon, more than 60 times the amount of carbon released to the atmosphere by humans each year. Understanding the distribution of the carbon stored in living plants, known as biomass, is key to estimating the effects of land use change on the climate.Dataset SummaryThis layer provides access to a 1-km cell-sized raster with data on the density of carbon stored in living plants in metric tons per hectare for the year 2000.

Geographic layers

Geographic layers on which the different data records are geo-referenced (e.g. mobility, COVID-19 cases). The different layers can be grouped into those that cover the whole territory of pain (e.g. municipalities) and those that are restricted to a specific region (Table1). Among those that cover the full territory of Spain, the record accounts for the first four levels of administrative division, that is, autonomous communities, provinces, municipalities and districts.

Minnesota's original public land survey plat maps were created between 1848 and 1907 during the first government land survey of the state by the U.S. Surveyor General's Office. This collection of more than 3,600 maps includes later General Land Office (GLO) and Bureau of Land Management maps up through 2001. Scanned images of the maps are available in several digital formats and most have been georeferenced.

The survey plat maps, and the accompanying survey field notes, serve as the fundamental legal records for real estate in Minnesota; all property titles and descriptions stem from them. They also are an essential resource for surveyors and provide a record of the state's physical geography prior to European settlement. Finally, they testify to many years of hard work by the surveying community, often under very challenging conditions.

The deteriorating physical condition of the older maps (drawn on paper, linen, and other similar materials) and the need to provide wider public access to the maps, made handling the original records increasingly impractical. To meet this challenge, the Office of the Secretary of State (SOS), the State Archives of the Minnesota Historical Society (MHS), the Minnesota Department of Transportation (MnDOT), MnGeo (formerly the Land Management Information Center - LMIC) and the Minnesota Association of County Surveyors collaborated in a digitization project which produced high quality (800 dpi), 24-bit color images of the maps in standard TIFF, JPEG and PDF formats - nearly 1.5 terabytes of data. Funding was provided by MnDOT.

In 2010-11, most of the JPEG plat map images were georeferenced. The intent was to locate the plat images to coincide with statewide geographic data without appreciably altering (warping) the image. This increases the value of the images in mapping software where they can be used as a background layer.

The gSSURGO dataset provides detailed soil survey mapping in raster format with ready-to-map attributes organized in statewide tiles for desktop GIS. gSSURGO is derived from the official Soil Survey Geographic (SSURGO) Database. SSURGO generally has the most detailed level of soil geographic data developed by the National Cooperative Soil Survey (NCSS) in accordance with NCSS mapping standards. The tabular data represent the soil attributes and are derived from properties and characteristics stored in the National Soil Information System (NASIS).

The gSSURGO data were prepared by merging the traditional vector-based SSURGO digital map data and tabular data into statewide extents, adding a statewide gridded map layer derived from the vector layer, and adding a new value-added look up table (valu) containing ready-to-map attributes. The gridded map layer is in an ArcGIS file geodatabase in raster format, thus it has the capacity to store significantly more data and greater spatial extents than the traditional SSURGO product. The raster map data have a 10-meter cell size that approximates the vector polygons in an Albers Equal Area projection. Each cell (and polygon) is linked to a map unit identifier called the map unit key. A unique map unit key is used to link the raster cells and polygons to attribute tables.

Overview

The Geographical database of the Uralic languages consists of past and current distributions of the Uralic languages both as the original digital spatial datasets and as finalized maps. The database has been collected by the interdisciplinary BEDLAN (Biological Evolution and Diversification of LANguages) research team in collaboration with experts of Uralic languages. The work has been financed by the University of Turku (UTU–BGG), Kone Foundation (UraLex, AikaSyyni), the Academy of Finland (URKO), UiT – The Arctic University of Norway and the University of Oulu, as well as the Finno-Ugrian Society. The data have been compiled for the purposes of doing spatial linguistic and multidisciplinary research, and to visually present the state-of-the-art knowledge of the Uralic languages and their dialects. Geographic distributions are visualized as vector data primarily by using polygon objects (speaker areas or language areas), and in some rare cases, by using points. Based on the language distributions, coordinates for the languages and their dialects (point locations) have also been defined.

Based on open access data, 79 Mediterranean passenger ports are analyzed to compare their infrastructure, hinterland accessibility and offered multi-modality categories. Comparative Geo-spatial analysis is also carried out by using the data normalization method in order to visualize the ports' performance on maps. These data driven comprehensive analytical results can bring added value to sustainable development policy and planning initiatives in the Mediterranean Region. The analyzed elements can be also contributed to the development of passenger port performance indicators. The empirical research methods used for the Mediterranean passenger ports can be replicated for transport nodes of any region around the world to determine their relative performance on selected criteria for improvement and planning.

The Mediterranean passenger ports were initially categorized into cruise and ferry ports. The cruise ports were identified from the member list of the Association for the Mediterranean Cruise Ports (MedCruise), representing more than 80% of the cruise tourism activities per country. The identified cruise ports were mapped by selecting the corresponding geo-referenced ports from the map layer developed by the European Marine Observation and Data Network (EMODnet). The United Nations (UN) Code for Trade and Transport Locations (LOCODE) was identified for each of the cruise ports as the common criteria to carry out the selection. The identified cruise ports not listed by the EMODnet were added to the geo-database by using under license the editing function of the ArcMap (version 10.1) geographic information system software. The ferry ports were identified from the open access industry initiative data provided by the Ferrylines, and were mapped in a similar way as the cruise ports (Figure 1).

Based on the available data from the identified cruise ports, a database (see Table A1–A3) was created for a Mediterranean scale analysis. The ferry ports were excluded due to the unavailability of relevant information on selected criteria (Table 2). However, the cruise ports serving as ferry passenger ports were identified in order to maximize the scope of the analysis. Port infrastructure and hinterland accessibility data were collected from the statistical reports published by the MedCruise, which are a compilation of data provided by its individual member port authorities and the cruise terminal operators. Other supplementary sources were the European Sea Ports Organization (ESPO) and the Global Ports Holding, a cruise terminal operator with an established presence in the Mediterranean. Additionally, open access data sources (e.g. the Google Maps and Trip Advisor) were consulted in order to identify the multi-modal transports and bridge the data gaps on hinterland accessibility by measuring the approximate distances.
