The USGS Protected Areas Database of the United States (PAD-US) is the nation's inventory of protected areas, including public open space and voluntarily provided, private protected areas, identified as an A-16 National Geospatial Data Asset in the Cadastral Theme (http://www.fgdc.gov/ngda-reports/NGDA_Datasets.html). PAD-US is an ongoing project with several published versions of a spatial database of areas dedicated to the preservation of biological diversity, and other natural, recreational or cultural uses, managed for these purposes through legal or other effective means. The geodatabase maps and describes public open space and other protected areas. Most areas are public lands owned in fee; however, long-term easements, leases, and agreements or administrative designations documented in agency management plans may be included. The PAD-US database strives to be a complete “best available” inventory of protected areas (lands and waters) including data provided by managing agencies and organizations. The dataset is built in collaboration with several partners and data providers (http://gapanalysis.usgs.gov/padus/stewards/). See Supplemental Information Section of this metadata record for more information on partnerships and links to major partner organizations. As this dataset is a compilation of many data sets; data completeness, accuracy, and scale may vary. Federal and state data are generally complete, while local government and private protected area coverage is about 50% complete, and depends on data management capacity in the state. For completeness estimates by state: http://www.protectedlands.net/partners. As the federal and state data are reasonably complete; focus is shifting to completing the inventory of local gov and voluntarily provided, private protected areas. The PAD-US geodatabase contains over twenty-five attributes and four feature classes to support data management, queries, web mapping services and analyses: Marine Protected Areas (MPA), Fee, Easements and Combined. The data contained in the MPA Feature class are provided directly by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Marine Protected Areas Center (MPA, http://marineprotectedareas.noaa.gov ) tracking the National Marine Protected Areas System. The Easements feature class contains data provided directly from the National Conservation Easement Database (NCED, http://conservationeasement.us ) The MPA and Easement feature classes contain some attributes unique to the sole source databases tracking them (e.g. Easement Holder Name from NCED, Protection Level from NOAA MPA Inventory). The "Combined" feature class integrates all fee, easement and MPA features as the best available national inventory of protected areas in the standard PAD-US framework. In addition to geographic boundaries, PAD-US describes the protection mechanism category (e.g. fee, easement, designation, other), owner and managing agency, designation type, unit name, area, public access and state name in a suite of standardized fields. An informative set of references (i.e. Aggregator Source, GIS Source, GIS Source Date) and "local" or source data fields provide a transparent link between standardized PAD-US fields and information from authoritative data sources. The areas in PAD-US are also assigned conservation measures that assess management intent to permanently protect biological diversity: the nationally relevant "GAP Status Code" and global "IUCN Category" standard. A wealth of attributes facilitates a wide variety of data analyses and creates a context for data to be used at local, regional, state, national and international scales. More information about specific updates and changes to this PAD-US version can be found in the Data Quality Information section of this metadata record as well as on the PAD-US website, http://gapanalysis.usgs.gov/padus/data/history/.) Due to the completeness and complexity of these data, it is highly recommended to review the Supplemental Information Section of the metadata record as well as the Data Use Constraints, to better understand data partnerships as well as see tips and ideas of appropriate uses of the data and how to parse out the data that you are looking for.

To find more data resources as well as view example analysis performed using PAD-US data visit, http://gapanalysis.usgs.gov/padus/resources/. The PAD-US dataset and data standard are compiled and maintained by the USGS Gap Analysis Program, http://gapanalysis.usgs.gov/ .

The zip file contains a large tiff mosaic stitched together from a series of aerial photographs of the Calhoun CZO area taken in 1933, when the area was being acquired by the US Forest Service. USFS archaeologist Mike Harmon delivered the black-and-white photographs, known to him as the 'Sumter National Forest Purchase Aerials', to us in a box. The photographs include most of the Enoree District of the Sumter National Forest, including the entirety of the Calhoun CZO, not just the long-term plots and small watersheds. The photographs were scanned and georectified, then color-balanced and stitched together following 'seams' - high-contrast features such as rivers and roads ('seamlined'). In addition to the main tiff are four files that can be used to properly geolocate the composite image in ArcGIS.

The multilayer pdf file includes a smaller version of the seamlined 1933 aerial photography mosaic raster layer, as well as this aerial mosaic transparent over slope map (for a 3D-like 1933 image raster). Other layers include contours, roads, boundaries, sampling locations, 1.5 m DEM, 1.5m slope, 1m 2013 NAIP aerial imagery, and 2014 canopy height. The pdf file includes both 'interfluve order' and 'landshed order.' These two layers mean the same thing, but the landshed is the area unit around the interfluve that is used for statistics; this dataset has been QC'ed. The Interfluve Order network was used to delineate the landsheds and agrees with it >95% of the time, but has a few inaccuracies (it was automated by the computer) that were fixed manually. Use the network for viewing and considering the landscape at large, but for the specific interfluve order, check the color of the 'Landshed Order' dataset to verify its accuracy.

Date Range Comments: The exact date these photos were taken is unknown, but the year is thought to be 1933.The flight date is prior to the USFS land purchases for the Enoree District of the Sumter National Forest; the photos are thus known as the "pre-purchase photos").

The U.S. Geological Survey South Atlantic Water Science Center, in cooperation with the South Carolina Department of Transportation, implemented a South Carolina StreamStats application in 2018. This shapefile dataset contains vector lines representing streams, rivers, and ditches that were used in preparing the underlying data for the South Carolina StreamStats application. Data were compiled from multiple sources, but principally represent lidar-derived linework from the South Carolina Department of Natural Resources and the South Carolina Lidar Consortium.The South Carolina hydrography lines were created from elevation rasters that ranged from 4 to 10 ft resolution, to produce a product of approximately 1:6,000-scale. Other sources include the 1:24,000 scale high resolution National Hydrography Dataset streamlines [for streamlines in Georgetown County (SC), NC, and GA] and the 1:4,800 scale local-resolution North Carolina Stream Mapping Project lines (mountain counties). These ...

Prior to 2020, South Carolina State Government, along with a majority of our Local Governments saw a need for high quality aerial imagery. State law requires that counties must map using orthophotography every 10 years for assessment purposes. This created a unique dataset which had a multitude of varying spatial, temporal and radiometric resolutions. With this "patchwork" of imagery no one entity could really benefit from a standard dataset. Because of this need for a baseline imagery dataset, South Carolina Revenue and Fiscal Affairs Office's (SC RFA) statewide aerial initiative became a reality. With onetime General Assembly appropriations, we were able to successfully collect a full statewide aerial dataset. This data was collected between January 7 and March 7, 2020, during leaf-off and cloud free conditions by Kucera International Inc. Using both frame (Vexcel Eagle M1) and push-broom (Leica ADS100) based digital mapping cameras, all of the imagery was collected at 6-inch resolution with 4-radiometric bands producing True and False Color datasets. This data will be used by local, state and federal agencies to help manage land, land tax assessment, change detection and emergency operations along with other business applications.
