This data archive is a collection of GIS files and FGDC metadata prepared in 1995 for the Northampton County Planning Office by the Virginia Coast Reserve LTER project at the University of Virginia with support from the Virginia Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) and the National Science Foundation (NSF). Original data sources include: 1:100,000-scale USGS digital line graph (DLG) hydrography and transportation data; 1:6,000-scale boundary, road, and railroad data for the town of Cape Charles from VDOT; 1:190,000-scale county-wide general soil map data and 1:15,540-scale detailed soil data for the Cape Charles area digitized from printed USDA soil survey maps; a land use and vegetation cover dataset (30 m. resolution) created by the VCRLTER derived from a 1993 Landsat Thematic Mapper satellite image; 1:20,000-scale plant association maps for 10 seaside barrier and marsh islands between Hog and Smith Islands, inclusive, prepared by Cheryl McCaffrey for TNC in 1975 and published in the Virginia Journal of Science in 1990; and 1993 colonial bird nesting site data collected by The Center for Conservation Biology (with partners The Nature Conservancy, College of William and Mary, University of Virginia, USFWS, VA-DCR, and VA-DGIF). Contents: HYDROGRAPHY Based on USGS 1:100,000 Digital Line Graph (DLG) data. Files: h100k_arc_u84 (streams, shorelines, etc.) and h100k_poly_u84 (marshes, mudflats, etc.). Note that the hydrographic data has been superseded by the more recent and more detailed USGS National Hydrography Dataset, available for the entire state of Virginia at "ftp://nhdftp.usgs.gov/DataSets/Staged/States/FileGDB/HighResolution/NHDH_VA_931v210.zip" (see http://nhd.usgs.gov/data.html for more information). A static 2013 version of the NHD data that includes shapefiles extracted from the original ESRI geodatabase format data and covering just the watersheds of the Eastern Shore of VA can also be found in the VCRLTER Data Catalog (dataset VCR14223). TRANSPORTATION Based on USGS 1:100,000 Digital Line Graph (DLG) data for the full county, and 1:6,000 VDOT data for the Cape Charles township. Files: 1:100k Transportation (lines) from USGS DLG data: rtf100k_arc_u84 (roads), rrf100k_arc_u84 (railroads), and mtf100k_arc_u84 (airports and utility transmission lines). Files: 1:6000 street, boundary, and rail line data for the town of Cape Charles, 1984, prepared by Virginia Department of Highways and Transportation Information Services (Division 1221 East Broad Street, Richmond, Virginia 23219). Streets correct through December 31,1983. Georeferencing corrected in 2014 for shapefiles only, using same methodology described for VCR14218 dataset. File : town_u84_adj (town_arc_u84old is the older unadjusted data). Note that the transportation data has been superseded by more recent and more detailed data contained in dataset VCR14222 of the VCRLTER Data Catalog. The VCR14222 data contains 2013 U.S. Census Bureau TIGER/Line road and airfield data supplemented by railroad and transmission lines digitized from high resolution VGIN-VBMP 2013 aerial imagery and additionally has boat launch locations not available here. SOILS General soil map for Northampton county (1:190k), and detailed soil map for Cape Charles and Cheriton areas (1:15,540) from published the USDA Soil Conservation Service's 1989 "Soil Survey of Northampton County, Virginia" digitized at UVA by Ray Dukes Smith: soilorig_poly_u84 (uses original shorelines from source maps), soil_poly_u84 (substitutes shorelines from 1993 landcover classification data), and cc_soil_poly_u84 (Cape Charles & Cheriton detailed data, map sheets 13 and 14). Note that the soil data has been superseded by more recent and more detailed SSURGO soil data from the USDA's Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS), which has seamless soil data from the 1:15,540 map series in tabular and GIS formats for the full county, as well as for all counties in VA and other states. A static 2013 version of the SSURGO data that contains merged data for Accomack and Northampton Counties can be found in the VCRLTER Data Catalog (dataset VCR14220). LANDUSE/LANDCOVER VCR Landuse and Vegetation Cover, 1993, created by Guofan Shao (VCRLTER) based on 30m resolution Landsat Thematic Mapper (TM) satellite imagery taken on July 28, 1993. Cropped to include just Northampton County. Landcover is divided into 5 classifications: (1) Forest or shrub, (2) Bare Land or Sand, (3) Planted Cropland, Grassland, or Upland Marsh, (4) Open Water, and (5) Low Salt Marsh. File = nhtm93s3_poly_u84. No spatial adjustments necessary. An outline of the county showing the shorelines based on the above 1993 TM classification is included as the shapefile:outline_poly_u84; however, no spatial adjustment has been applied.

The TIGER/Line shapefiles and related database files (.dbf) are an extract of selected geographic and cartographic information from the U.S. Census Bureau's Master Address File / Topologically Integrated Geographic Encoding and Referencing (MAF/TIGER) Database (MTDB). The MTDB represents a seamless national file with no overlaps or gaps between parts, however, each TIGER/Line shapefile is designed to stand alone as an independent data set, or they can be combined to cover the entire nation. The All Roads Shapefile includes all features within the MTDB Super Class "Road/Path Features" distinguished where the MAF/TIGER Feature Classification Code (MTFCC) for the feature in MTDB that begins with "S". This includes all primary, secondary, local neighborhood, and rural roads, city streets, vehicular trails (4wd), ramps, service drives, alleys, parking lot roads, private roads for service vehicles (logging, oil fields, ranches, etc.), bike paths or trails, bridle/horse paths, walkways/pedestrian trails, and stairways.

The parcel polygon sde parcel feature class is joined to the parcel's assessment information based on the "CAMA_ID" field.

This datasets contain GIS shapefiles related to the transportation infrastructure of Accomack and Northampton Counties on the Eastern Shore of Virginia. Included here are roads and highways, railroads, airfields and airstrips, boat ramps, and electrical transmission lines. Data was compiled from multiple sources. The primary purpose of this dataset is to provide VCRLTER researchers and students with a convenient up-to-date set of GIS data layers in one location that can be used as base layers for various map products and for planning research activities. A secondary purpose of this dataset is to extend transportation data coverage in the VCRLTER data catalog to include Accomack County and to supersede older USGS DLG data contained in the Northampton County GIS data package (VCRLTER dataset VCR14219).

This dataset contains detailed USDA SSURGO soil information and mapped soil extents for the soils of Accomack and Northampton Counties on Virginia's Eastern Shore, including those areas of focused study by the Virginia Coast Reserve LTER project. This USDA soil data is collected and combined here to make it more accessible to VCRLTER researchers and students, in a more GIS-friendly format, and to supersede previous digitized versions of more generalized soil maps created by the VCRLTER and included as part of the 1995 VCRLTER-Northampton County GIS data archive (dataset VCR14219). Data was downloaded in Jan. 2014 and tabular data for both counties was imported into a MS Access database using the provided standard SSURGO US 2003 template. Spatial data for the two counties was merged together into a single ArcGIS shapefile and selected fields from the MAPUNIT and MUAGGATT tables were joined to the final shapefile's attribute table. Each polygon represents all or part of a SSURGO "mapunit", which may contain multiple component soils; usually very similar soils that grade together or else so heterogeneously mixed together at fine spatial scales to make mapping the component soils individually impractical. Also, each soil typically has multiple vertical soil horizons, each with its own distinct composition (mineral, textural, etc.) and other characteristics. Detailed information about component soils (including typical soil moisture, dry albedo, erodibility indices, taxonomic nomenclature, flooding and ponding characteristics, engineering, crop, forest, and habitat suitability indices and yield tables, and geomorphic descriptions) and component horizons (including horizon depths, grain size distributions, sand/silt/clay fractions, mineral and organic content, and pore space characteristics) is included in the MS Access database but NOT in the combined ArcGIS shapefile. Users interested in exploring or displaying component or horizon information may use the report and query forms within the MS Access database, or they may join selected database tables to the shapefile using the appropriate mukey, cokey, and chkey indices in a one-to-many join within a chosen GIS software.

This storymap is an overview of a VA Coastal Zone Management Program funded study, “Socioeconomic impacts of conserved land on Virginia’s Eastern Shore”. The study was completed in July 27, 2017, based on the 2016 fiscal year. The report was prepared by Terry L. Clower, Ph.D. George Mason University, Dean D. Bellas, Ph.D., Urban Analytics, Inc. and funded by the Virginia Coastal Zone Management Program. The study is a high level analysis of the fiscal and economic impacts of conserved land on the Eastern Shore of Virginia. The objective of the study was to answer the questions: The primary objective of this report is to provide decision makers at the State of Virginia, Accomack County, and Northampton County with a high-level analysis of the fiscal and economic impacts of conserved land on the Eastern Shore of Virginia.

The findings shown in this report are based on existing land-use and fiscal conditions in each county as of fiscal year end 2016 and support the conclusion that conservation lands do not have a negative impact on the economy.

This datasets contain GIS files related to the hydrology and watersheds of Accomack and Northampton Counties on the Eastern Shore of Virginia. Data include named and unnamed water bodies, rivers and streams (both center flowlines and area polygons showing bank-full width for larger features), wetlands and marshes, and shorelines. A static (2013-09-06) copy of the full USGS "National Hydrography Dataset (NHD) - High Resolution - Virginia" state-extracted dataset in original ESRI file-geodatabase format, downloaded on 2014-02-21 from nhd.usgs.gov, is included. For users who may not be able to read or make use of data in ESRI proprietary geodatabase formats, shapefiles of geographic feature classes contained within the HUC8 subbasins spanning Accomack and Northampton Counties (partly or wholly) are also provided. Note that the stream network nodal topology, which can be used to evaluate and analyze flow paths as part of a fully-functional hydrological network with GIS tools such as Arc Hydro and Network Analyst, are only available within the ESRI file-geodatabase file. The primary purpose of this dataset is to provide VCRLTER researchers and students with a convenient up-to-date set of GIS data layers in one location that can be used as base layers for various map products and for conducting research activities. A secondary purpose of this dataset is to extend hydrologic data coverage in the VCRLTER data catalog to include Accomack County and to supersede older USGS DLG data contained in the Northampton County GIS data package (VCRLTER dataset VCR14219).

The 2022 update of the digital '1:500 000 tectonic units of Western Australia' has been compiled using boundaries derived from the digital '1:500 000 State interpreted bedrock geology of Western Australia, 2020'. For the offshore component, the map uses data and divisions from the Geoscience Australia ‘Australian Geological Provinces’ GIS dataset, with polygons adjusted to match seamlessly into the onshore tectonic elements. The nomenclature and hierarchy for the tectonic units are based on weekly updates from the Explanatory Notes System (ENS). In order to provide the most up-to-date geological information for the units in question, attribution from the original source is modified to remove superseded units, display correct tectonic relationships and include more recent geochronology. Significant changes to the tectonic framework of Western Australia in this version include: a) the obsolete Speewah Basin is now included in the Kimberley Basin; b) the obsolete Gunbarrel Basin is now part of the Canning Basin; c) the obsolete Northern and Southern Bonaparte Basins are combined into a single Bonaparte Basin, and the onshore extent of the Petrel Sub-basin has been modified to include the Weaber Group, and the offshore extent modified accordingly; d) the new Burringurrah Domain has been defined as part of the Gascoyne Province; e) the basaltic component of the Carson Volcanics is now represented as part of the Hart – Carson Large Igneous Province, rather than the Kimberley Basin into which it was extruded; f) significant re-interpretation of the granite–greenstone domains in the southwestern part of the Yilgarn Craton; g) the boundary between the Northern Perth Basin and Southern Carnarvon Basin has been modified along the western margin of the Northampton Inlier, and the offshore boundaries adjusted accordingly; h) the obsolete Pardoo Shelf has been assigned to the Lambert Shelf and extended onshore to the east of Port Hedland. The State is the highest level unit in the hierarchy and is subdivided at the next level into Archean to Paleoproterozoic cratons; Proterozoic orogens; Archean, Proterozoic and Phanerozoic basins (or superbasins); and igneous supersuites. All units depicted on this map, with the exception of basins and some igneous supersuites, are at the third or lesser hierarchical level. Cratons are subdivided into superterranes, terranes and domains. Orogens are divided into provinces and orogenic forelands, and may also incorporate sedimentary basins; provinces are further subdivided into terranes/zones.
