This data set comprises a portion of the ESI for Hawaii. ESI data characterize the marine and coastal environments and wildlife by their sensitivity to spilled oil. The ESI data include information for three main components: shoreline habitats, sensitive biological resources, and human-use resources. The ESI data were collected, mapped, and digitized to provide environmental data for oil spill planning and response. The Clean Water Act with amendments by the Oil Pollution Act of 1990 requires response plans for immediate and effective protection of sensitive resources.

The process includes a standardized data entry methodology, hardcopy data review by in-house and external resource experts, a final Quality Assurance/Quality Control (QA/QC) process, and multiple automated logical consistency checks. Quantitative data (such as densities, counts, abundances, or concentrations) provided by resource experts for inclusion in the data set may vary widely in attribute accuracy, depending upon the methodology used to collect and compile such data. For a more detailed evaluation of source data attribute accuracy, contact the sources listed in the Lineage section. Horizontal Positional Accuracy The ESI data set was developed from pre-existing digital sources and reflects the positional accuracy of these original data. The horizontal positional accuracy of the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Digital Line Graph (DLG) and National Wetlands Inventory (NWI) source data, as well as the hardcopy 1:24,000 USGS topographic quads, should conform to National Map Accuracy Standards at scales of 1:24,000. The minimum mapping unit (MMU) of the actual shoreline classification segments is estimated at 50 meters when mapping is conducted using 1:24,000 hardcopy fieldmaps. Field verification has shown that the absolute positional accuracy of breaks between shoreline ESI types with a 95-percent error bound is approximately 58 meters. See the Lineage and Process_Description sections for more information on the original source data and how these data were integrated or manipulated to create the final data set. Completeness Report These data represent coastal shorelines and habitats classified according to the Environmental Sensitivity Index (ESI) classification system. Conceptual Consistency A multi-stage error checking process, described in the above Attribute_Accuracy_Report, is used to verify both attribute accuracy and logical consistency throughout data production. This process includes multiple automated logical consistency checks that test the files for missing or duplicate data, rules for proper coding, GIS topological consistencies (such as dangles, unnecessary node, etc.), and ORACLE(r) to ARC/INFO(r) consistencies. A final review is made by the GIS manager, where the data are written to CD-ROM and the metadata are written. After the data are delivered to NOAA, they are again subjected to a number of quality and consistency checks. The shoreline was initially classified using a standardized classification scheme based on Environmental Sensitivity Index Guidelines, Version 2.0 (Halls, J., J. Michel, S. Zengel, J. Dahlin, and J. Petersen, 1997, Hazardous Materials Response and Assessment Division, NOAA) by a geomorphologist during overflights conducted in August of 2000. The overflights were conducted using small fixed-wing aircraft (Cessna 152 and 172) at elevations of 100-500 feet and slow air speed. Shoreline attributes were recorded on hardcopy 1:24,000 USGS topographic maps. Where appropriate, multiple habitat types were assigned for each shoreline segment. These maps were then scanned, registered, and the ESI classification was transferred to the 1997 Hawaii Statewide GIS digital coastline. In some cases, gross shoreline changes were digitized from unrectified aerial overhead or oblique photography. Aerial photography was also used to classify small portions of the shoreline that were inaccessible via overflight. The 1978 1:24,000 Hawaii Statewide GIS digital National Wetlands Inventory maps were used to derive ESI polygons. In some cases, additional ESI polygons, primarily mangroves, were sketched during overflights. These polygons were then digitized from the scanned and registered hardcopy maps. Also, additional hydrographic features or habitat polygons were digitized directly from scanned USGS topographic maps. Hardcopy maps of this attributed shoreline and habitat polygons were plotted at 1:24,000 scale for verification of the ESI attributes. 2001-11-01T00:00:00 Source Contribution: ESI Shoreline | Source Geospatial Form: vector digital data | Type of Source Media: online Digital Shoreline Hawaii Statewide GIS Program 1983 Source Contribution: Digital Shoreline | Source Geospatial Form: map | Type of Source Media: paper 24000 ESI Overflight Colin Plank 2001 Source Contribution: Digital Shoreline | Source Geospatial Form: vector digital data | Type of Source Media: online Modified National Wetlands Inventory Digital Data Hawaii Statewide GIS Program 1978
