Land Use Zoning Districts in San Jose, CA.

Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are a group of legacy pollutants formerly used in commercial and industrial processes, with peak use between 1950 and 1980. "Old Industrial" indicates that an area's land use was Industrial prior to 1980 and has not yet been redeveloped. Regional monitoring data demonstrate higher loads of PCBs in stormwater runoff from Old Industrial areas, compared with other land uses types. In order to reduce PCBs runoff to the Bay, the City will investigate and treat Old Industrial areas, on a parcel-by-parcel basis. Investigation occurs through sample collection and lab testing, as well as desktop analysis. Treatment to control or abate PCBs runoff may include redevelopment, full trash capture device installation, enhanced street sweeping, and implementation of BMPs or cleanup on confirmed source properties. This layer shows the current investigation and treatment status for each Old Industrial parcel in San Jose. Data updated annually.

This layer was created as an update the existing San Jose Parks Layer (PRK.PARKS). The existing layer has been maintained by the City of San Jose Department of Public Works and had not been updated in some time. This layer is a draft as of (05.02.2014) and has not been fully reviewed to assure complete accuracy of boundaries. Nevertheless it is an improvement over the existing layer and has had park boundaries adjusted to reflect PRNS management authority to the curb and gutter. This layer is also primarily based upon satellite imagery and visible property lines with the Santa Clara County parcel layer used as a guide in certain circumstances where boundaries could not be identified. The PRK.PARKS layer on the other hand , appeared to be based upon the Santa Clara Parcel layer, which did not include sidewalk and curb areas of the parks. In addition many parcel maps features included sections of roadway or overlapped into neighboring properties when compared with the aerial. Park chains have yet to be reviewed and revised. It is our intent to adjust these features to show only secured or quasi-government lands in which development in unlikely to occur. In addition, park chain lands may be adjusted to reflect underpasses where trails and public access is permitted.

The San Juan basin is a significant physical and structural element in the southeastern part of the Colorado Plateau physiographic province. The San Juan basin is in New Mexico, Colorado, Arizona, and Utah and has an area of about 21,600 square miles. The basin is about 140 miles wide and about 200 miles long. In the 1980’s and 1990’s, the San Juan basin was the focus of the U.S. Geological Survey's Regional Aquifer-System Analysis (RASA) study. Investigation of the San Juan structural basin began in October 1984 with an objective, among others, to define and evaluate the aquifer system. As part of this analysis, a multi-publication series of reports were produced as Hydrologic Atlas 720 (HA-720) that described on 1:1,000,000-scale maps the subsurface configuration and hydrogeology of the San Jose, Nacimiento, and Animas Formations (Levings and others, 1990; HA-720-A), the Ojo Alamo Sandstone (Thorn and others, 1990; HA-720-B), the Kirtland Shale and Fruitland Formation (Kernodle and others, 1990; HA-720-C), the Pictured Cliffs Sandstone (Dam and others, 1990; HA-720-D), the Cliff House Sandstone (Thorn and others, 1990; HA-720-E), the Menefee Formation (Levings and others, 1990; HA-720-F), the Point Lookout Sandstone (Craigg and others, 1990; HA-720-G), the Gallup Sandstone (Kernodle and others, 1990; HA-720-H), the Dakota Sandstone (Craigg and others, 1990; HA-720-I), and the Morrison Formation (Dam and others, 1990; HA-720-J). This digital dataset contains spatial datasets corresponding to the contoured subsurface maps produced by the U.S. Geological Survey's Regional Aquifer-System Analysis (RASA) San Juan basin study. The data define the elevation, thickness, and extent of principal stratigraphic units of the basin. The digital data describe the following stratigraphic units: the San Jose Formation, the Ojo Alamo Sandstone, the Kirtland Shale and Fruitland Formation, the Pictured Cliffs Sandstone, the Cliff House Sandstone, the Menefee Formation, the Point Lookout Sandstone, the Gallup Sandstone, the Dakota Sandstone, and the Morrison Formation. Digital data for each unit are contained in individual features classes within a geodatabase (also saved as individual shapefiles). Feature classes have a single attribute, either elevation or thickness, that represents the contoured value. Contoured values are given in feet, to maintain consistency with the original publication, and in meters.

description: This part of DS 781 presents data for the geologic and geomorphic map of the Offshore of Tomales Point map area, California. The vector data file is included in "Geology_OffshoreTomalesPoint.zip," which is accessible from http://pubs.usgs.gov/ds/781/OffshoreTomalesPoint/data_catalog_OffshoreTomalesPoint.html. The morphology and the geology of the offshore part of the Offshore of Tomales Point map area result from the interplay between tectonics, sea-level rise, local sedimentary processes, and oceanography. The map area is cut by the northwest-trending San Andreas Fault, the right-lateral transform boundary between the North American and Pacific tectonic plates. The San Andreas strikes through Tomales Bay, the northern part of a linear valley that extends from Bolinas through Olema Valley to Bodega Bay, separating mainland California from the Point Reyes Peninsula. Onshore investigations indicate that this section of the San Andreas Fault has an estimated slip rate of about 17 to 25 mm/yr (Bryant and Lundberg, 2002; Grove and Niemi, 2005). The devastating Great 1906 California earthquake (M 7.8) is thought to have nucleated on the San Andreas Fault about 50 kilometers south of this map area offshore of San Francisco (e.g., Bolt, 1968; Lomax, 2005), with the rupture extending northward through the Offshore of Tomales Point map area to the south flank of Cape Mendocino (Lawson, 1908; Brown and Wolfe, 1972). The Point Reyes Peninsula is bounded to the south and west in the offshore by the north- and east-dipping Point Reyes Thrust Fault (McCulloch, 1987; Heck and others, 1990), which lies about 20 km west of Tomales Point. Granitic basement rocks are offset about 1.4 km on this thrust fault offshore of Point Reyes (McCulloch, 1987), and this uplift combined with west-side-up offset on the San Andreas Fault (Grove and Niemi, 2005) resulted in uplift of the Point Reyes Peninsula, including Tomales Point and the adjacent continental shelf. Grove and others (2010) reported uplift rates of as much as 1 mm/yr for the south flank of the Point Reyes Peninsula based on marine terraces, but reported no datable terrace surfaces that could constrain uplift for the flight of 4-5 terraces exposed farther north along Tomales Point. Because of this Quaternary uplift and relative lack of sediment supply from coastal watersheds, there is extensive rugged, rocky seafloor beneath the continental shelf in the Offshore of Tomales Point map area. Granitic rocks (unit Kg) on the seafloor are mapped on the basis of massive character, roughness, extensive fractures, and high backscatter (see Backscattter A to D--Offshore of Tomales Point, California, DS 781, for more information). Neogene sedimentary rocks (units Tl and Tu) commonly form distinctive "ribs," created by differential seafloor erosion of dipping beds of variable resistance. The more massive offshore outcrops of unit Tu in the southern part of the map area are inferred to represent more uniform lithologies. Slopes on the granitic seafloor (generally 1 to 1.3 degrees) are greater than those over sedimentary rock (generally about 0.5 to 0.6 degrees). Sediment-covered areas occur in gently sloping (less than about 0.6 degrees) mid-shelf environments west and north of Tomales Point, and at the mouth of Tomales Bay. Sediment supply is local, limited to erosion from local coastal bluffs and dunes, small coastal watersheds, and sediment flux out of the mouth of Tomales Bay. Shelf morphology and evolution largely reflects eustacy; sea level has risen about 125 to 130 m over about the last 21,000 years (for example, Lambeck and Chappell, 2001; Peltier and Fairbanks, 2005), leading to broadening of the continental shelf, progressive eastward migration of the shoreline and wave-cut platform, and associated transgressive erosion and deposition. Given present exposure to high wave energy, modern nearshore to mid-shelf sediments are mostly sand (unit Qms) and a mix of sand, gravel, and cobbles (units Qmsc and Qmsd). These sediments are distributed between rocky outcrops at water depths of as much as 65 m (see below). The more coarse-grained sands and gravels (units Qmsc and Qmsd) are primarily recognized on the basis of bathymetry and high backscatter. Unit Qmsd forms erosional lags in scoured depressions that are bounded by relatively sharp contacts with bedrock or sharp to diffuse contacts with units Qms and Qmsc. These scoured depressions are typically a few tens of centimeters deep and range in size from a few 10's of sq m to more than one sq km. Similar unit Qmsd scour depressions are common along this stretch of the California coast (see, for example, Cacchione and others, 1984; Hallenbeck and others, 2012) where surficial offshore sandy sediment is relatively thin (thus unable to fill the depressions) due to both lack of sediment supply and to erosion and transport of sediment during large northwest winter swells. Such features have been referred to as rippled-scour depressions (see, for example, Cacchione and others, 1984) or sorted bedforms (see, for example, Goff and others, 2005; Trembanis and Hume, 2011). Although the general areas in which both unit Qmsd scour depressions and surrounding mobile sand sheets occur are not likely to change substantially, the boundaries of the individual Qmsd depressions are likely ephemeral, changing seasonally and during significant storm events. Unit Qmsf consists primarily of mud and muddy sand and is commonly extensively bioturbated. The location of the inboard contact at water depths of about 65 m is based on meager sediment sampling and photographic data and the inference that if must lie offshore of the outer boundary of coarse-grained units Qmsd and Qmsc. This is notably deeper than the inner contact of unit Qmsf offshore of the nearby Russian River (about 50 m; Klise, 1983) which could may reflect both increased wave energy and significantly decreased supply of muddy sediment. There are two areas of high-backscatter, rough seafloor at water depths of 65 to 70 m west of northern Tomales Point. These areas are notable in that each includes several small (less than about 20,000 sq m), randomly distributed to northwest-trending, irregular "mounds," with as much as 1 m of positive relief above the seafloor (unit Qsr). Seismic-reflection data (see field activity S-15-10-NC) reveal this lumpy material rests on several meters of latest Pleistoce to Holocene sediment and is thus not bedrock outcrop. Rather, it seems likely that this material is marine debris, possibly derived from one (or more) of the more than 60 shipwrecks that have occurred offshore of the Point Reyes Peninsula between 1849 and 1940 (National Park Service, 2012). It is also conceivable that this lumpy terrane consists of biological "hardgrounds" Units Qsw, Qstb, Qdtb, and Qsdtb comprise sediments in Tomales Bay. Anima and others (2008) conducted a high-resolution bathymetric survey of Tomales Bay and noted that strong tidal currents at the mouth of the bay had created a large field of sandwaves, dunes, and flats (unit Qsw). Unit Qkdtb is a small subaqueous sandy delta deposited at the mouth of Keys Creek, the largest coastal watershed draining into this northern part of Tomales Bay. Unit Qstb occurs south of units Qsw and Qdtb, and comprises largely flat seafloor underlain by mixed sand and silt. Unit Qdtb consists of depressions within the sedimentary fill of Tomales Bay. These depressions commonly occur directly offshore of coastal promontories, cover as much as 74,000 sq m, and are as deep as 9 m. Map unit polygons were digitized over underlying 2-meter base layers developed from multibeam bathymetry and backscatter data (see Bathymetry--Offshore of Tomales Point, California and Backscattter A to D--Offshore of Tomales Point, California, DS 781). The bathymetry and backscatter data were collected between 2006 and 2010. References Cited Anima, R.

Building Climates Zones of California Climate Zone Descriptions for New Buildings - California is divided into 16 climatic boundaries or climate zones, which is incorporated into the Energy Efficiency Standards (Energy Code). Each Climate zone has a unique climatic condition that dictates which minimum efficiency requirements are needed for that specific climate zone. The numbers used in the climate zone map don't have a title or legend. The California climate zones shown in this map are not the same as what we commonly call climate areas such as "desert" or "alpine" climates. The climate zones are based on energy use, temperature, weather and other factors.This is explained in the Title 24 energy efficiency standards glossary section:"The Energy Commission established 16 climate zones that represent a geographic area for which an energy budget is established. These energy budgets are the basis for the standards...." "(An) energy budget is the maximum amount of energy that a building, or portion of a building...can be designed to consume per year.""The Energy Commission originally developed weather data for each climate zone by using unmodified (but error-screened) data for a representative city and weather year (representative months from various years). The Energy Commission analyzed weather data from weather stations selected for (1) reliability of data, (2) currency of data, (3) proximity to population centers, and (4) non-duplication of stations within a climate zone."Using this information, they created representative temperature data for each zone. The remainder of the weather data for each zone is still that of the representative city."

Urban heat islands are small areas where temperatures are unnaturally high - usually due to dense buildings, expansive hard surfaces, or a lack of tree cover or greenspace. People living in these communities are exposed to more dangerous conditions, especially as daytime high and nighttime low temperatures increase over time. NOAA Climate Program Office and CAPA Strategies have partnered with cities around the United States to map urban heat islands. Using Sentinel-2 satellite thermal data along with on-the-ground sensors, air temperature and heat indexes are calculated for morning, afternoon, and evening time periods. The NOAA Visualization Lab, part of the NOAA Satellite and Information Service, has made the original heat mapping data available as dynamic image services.Dataset SummaryPhenomenon Mapped: air temperatureUnits: degrees Fahrenheit Cell Size: 30 metersPixel Type: 32 bit floating pointData Coordinate Systems: WGS84 Mosaic Projection: WGS84 Extent: cities within the United StatesSource: NOAA and CAPA StrategiesPublication Date: September 20, 2021What can you do with this layer?This imagery layer supports communities' UHI spatial analysis and mapping capabilities.

1:24,000 scale Geologic Map of the Nelson Quadrangle, Clark County, Nevada. Nevada Bureau of Mines Map 134. Detailed Geologic Mapping By Jame s E . Faulds, John W. Bell, and Eric L. Olson in 2002. Field work done 1999. Map includes two cross sections and 42 geologic units. The quadrangle includes part of the Highland range, Eldorado Valley, and Piute Valley. It contains excellent exposures of early to middle Miocene volcanic and sedimentary rocks, the upper part of the ~16.6 Ma Searchlight. Mining district. The Miocene section rests nonconformably on Early Proterozoic gneiss. As a result of the middle Miocene extension, Tertiary strata are moderately to steeply tilted and cut by complex arrays of normal faults. Flat-lying Quaternary alluvial-fan deposits dominate Eldorado and Piute Valleys and onlap tilted Miocene strata in the Highland Range. The GIS work was in support of the U.S. Geological Survey COGEOMAP program.

We also thank the Lake Mead National Recreation Area for providing housing during part of this study. Base map: U.S. Geological Survey Nelson SW 7.5' Quadrangle.
