This data set contains sensitive biological resource data for marine, estuarine, and freshwater invertebrate species, as well as terrestrial insects in Chesapeake Bay and the Outer Coasts of Maryland and Virginia. Vector polygons in this data set represent invertebrate distribution and concentration areas. Vector points in this data set represent invertebrate occurrences. Species specific abundance, seasonality, status, life history, and source information are stored in relational data tables (described below) designed to be used in conjunction with this spatial data layer. This data set comprises a portion of the ESI data for Chesapeake Bay and the Outer Coasts of Maryland and Virginia. 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. This project was supported by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), National Ocean Service (NOS), Office of Response and Restoration (OR&R), Emergency Response Division (ERD), Seattle, Washington. completed ESI Program Manager 7600 Sand Point Way NE Seattle WA 98115 orr.esi@noaa.gov pointOfContact ESI Program Manager 7600 Sand Point Way NE Seattle WA 98115 orr.esi@noaa.gov custodian asNeeded Data content is considered static once published.

The process includes a standardized data entry methodology, 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 Spatial components for the biological data layers can come from expert interviews, hardcopy, or digital sources. Some of the spatial components of the biological data layers may have been developed using regional experts who estimate concentration areas. It is difficult to estimate the positional accuracy of such data, except to state that they are compiled on hardcopy base maps with a scale of 1:24,000. Some of the spatial components of the biological data sets are developed from pre-existing digital or hardcopy sources and reflect the positional accuracy of these original data. Note that biological resource data by their very nature are considered "fuzzy", and this should be understood when considering the positional accuracy of vector digital objects representing these resources. 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 a synthesis of expert knowledge, digital data, hardcopy maps, scientific reports, journal articles, published literature, and survey data. Key contributions were provided by data specialists and biologists at the Maryland Department of Natural Resources, Virginia Department of Game and Inland Fisheries, Virginia Marine Resources Commission, Virginia Commonwealth University, College of William and Mary's Virginia Institute of Marine Science, and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. See also the INVERTPT data layer, part of the larger Chesapeake Bay and the Outer Coasts of Maryland and Virginia ESI database, for additional invertebrate information. These data do not necessarily represent all invertebrate occurrences in Chesapeake Bay and the Outer Coasts of Maryland and Virginia.

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, and SQL SERVER(R) to ArcGIS(R) consistencies. A final review is made by the GIS manager, before the final Geodatabase and metadata are created. After the data are delivered to NOAA, they are again subjected to several consistency checks, and processed into the final delivery format. This atlas supersedes two separate first edition atlases, Virginia (2005, #25) and Maryland (2007, #47). INVERTEBRATE Polygons: Marine and estuarine distributions of brown shrimp, white shrimp, mantis shrimp, squid species and blue crab were mapped using fishery-independent data from the NEAMAP, ChesMMAP, VIMS Juvenile Fish and Blue Crab Trawl surveys and expert opinion from MD DNR and VIMS. General distributions of oysters and other shellfish species in Virginia were mapped using data from shellfish lease areas and expert knowledge by resource managers at VA MRC and from the Habitat Requirements for Chesapeake Bay Living Resources. Oyster reefs mapped in the coastal bays of Virginia came from digital data provided by VIMS from the Population Assessment of Eastern Oysters (Crassostrea virginica) in the Seaside Coastal Bays. Points were buffered by 25 meters and merged together based on input from VIMS scientists. In Maryland, shellfish species data comprise a combination of survey data, reports and expert knowledge provided by MD DNR shellfish researchers. These include Maryland's DNR Oyster Dredge Survey, Coastal Hard Clam Survey and Assessment of Chesapeake Bay Commercial softshell clams, Mya arenaria and Tagelus plebeius. Oyster reefs mapped in the ESI are not necessarily the only reefs in coastal areas, but represent current and potential oyster habitat in the bays. Additional invertebrate species were mapped into the coastal bays of Virginia and Maryland and in marine waters out to 12 NM based on survey data from NEAMAP and expert knowledge from resource managers and scientists at MD DNR, VA MRC and VIMS. All spatial and attribute data in this ESI were finalized through systematic review by scientists and resource experts from MD DNR, VA MRC and VIMS. Horseshoe crab spawning beaches came from three different sources. In the Coastal Bays of Maryland, spawning beaches represent expert knowledge provided by Steve Doctor. Spawning beaches in Tom's Cove were mapped from the Tom's Cove, Virginia Horseshoe Crab Tag Recovery Study Interim Report. Lastly, a number of small spawning sites within Chesapeake Bay were mapped using public sighting data provided by MD DNR. Horseshoe crabs utilize whatever appropriate habitat that is available inside Chesapeake Bay for spawning, and these areas can shift over time. Freshwater mussels represent VDGIF's Freshwater Mussel database, MD DNR's Ecologically Significant Areas database, and the Maryland Biological Stream Survey data. Species observations mapped from the VDGIF database were restricted to the dates 1995-2013, and only include records that fell within 1000m of ESI water bodies that are continuous to the ocean. Species mapped in Maryland have similar importance, but also include two endangered species: the dwarf wedgemussel (FE, MD SE) and the triangle floater (MD SE). Species mapped from MD DNR's Ecologically Significant Areas database are restricted based on date of last survey and include the years 1996 to 2016. A number of insects of conservation concern were mapped in Maryland using MD DNR's Ecologically Significant Areas database. Records were selected based upon date of last survey, and include data from 1996 to 2016. Northeastern beach tiger beetle (FT, MD SE, VA ST) occurrences in Virginia were mapped from a USFWS hard copy map. Northeastern beach tiger beetles were mapped in the study area according to expert knowledge. 2016-09-01T00:00:00 ESI Program Manager orr.esi@noaa.gov processor INVERTEBRATE Points: Mussels mapped in Virginia represent rare species that are of conservation concern and are of significant ecological importance. Species observations mapped from the VDGIF database were restricted to the dates 1995-2013. Data mapped in Maryland includes only one species of fresh water mussel, the Eastern elliptio, and date ranges for this data spans 1995-2014. Both data sets were mapped only with a 1000 meter buffer extending from the ESI water polygon layer, in an effort to restrict the occurrences to those likely to be impacted during a spill response scenario. 2016-09-01T00:00:00 ESI Program Manager orr.esi@noaa.gov processor Data from the above sources were compiled by the project biologist to create the INVERTEBRATE POLYS and POINTS data layers. Three general approaches are used for compiling the data layer: 1) information gathered during initial interviews and from hardcopy sources are compiled onto U.S. Geological Survey 1:24,000 topographic quadrangles and digitized; 2) hardcopy maps are digitized at their source scale; 3) digital data layers are evaluated and used "as is" or integrated with the hardcopy data sources. See the Lineage section for additional information. Once the ESI, biology, and human-use data are compiled into the standard ESI digital data format, a second set of interviews with participating resource experts are conducted to review the compiled data. If necessary, edits to the INVERTEBRATE POLYS and POINTS data layers were made based on the recommendations of the resource experts, and final hardcopy maps and digital data are created. 2016-09-01T00:00:00 ESI Program Manager orr.esi@noaa.gov processor Source Contribution: INVERT INFORMATION | Source Geospatial Form: document | Type of Source Media: EMAIL A MID-ATLANTIC STUDY OF THE MOVEMENT PATTERNS AND POPULATION DISTRIBUTION OF THE AMERICAN HORSESHOE CRAB (LIMULUS POLYPHEMUS) 2004-01-01 publication GROGAN, W.N. 2004 Source Contribution: INVERT INFORMATION | Source Geospatial Form: document | Type of Source Media: paper ASSESSMENT OF CHESAPEAKE BAY COMMERCIAL SOFTSHELL CLAMS (MYA ARENARIA AND TAGELUS PLEBEIUS) WITH EMPHASIS ON ABUNDANCE AND DISEASE STATUS 2011-01-01 publication MARYLAND DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL RESOURCES - HOMER, M.L., C.F.
