These feature classes reside within the SOCECON Feature Data Set of the Great Lakes - Straits of Mackinac 2019 ESI geodatabase. They contain vector polygons, lines and points representing Socioeconomic human-use resource data for Great Lakes - Straits of Mackinac study area. The study area includes the Straits of Mackinac, nearby portions of Lake Michigan and Lake Huron, and adjacent lands and waters in northern Michigan. These data sets contain information about the following resources: POINTS - abandoned vessels, airports, archaeological sites, campgrounds, epa facilities, heliports, historical sites, and renewable energy sites; POLYGONS - beaches and campgrounds; POLYLINES - pipelines, railroads, and roads. Object specific Type and Source information are stored in the related data tables, SOC_DAT and SOURCES (described below). These are stand-alone tables within the Geodatabase, designed to be used in conjunction with these spatial data layers. This data set is a portion of the ESI data for Great Lakes - Straits of Mackinac study area. As a whole, the ESI data characterize the marine and coastal environments and wildlife by their sensitivity to spilled oil, and include information for three main components: shoreline habitats, sensitive biological resources, and human-use resources. The ESI data are intended to provide baseline 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 ESI data may be appropriate for many other coastal management purposes, though the original intent should be kept in mind. 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, check the sources listed in the Lineage section. Completeness Report These data represent a synthesis of multiple sources of data (e.g. expert knowledge, digital data, hardcopy documents and maps) specific to Socioeconomic resources. For additional human-use information, see other feature class themes within the SOCECON Feature Data Set, including PARKS/MANAGED AREAS, POLITICAL/JURISDICTIONAL, RESOURCE MANAGEMENT, NAVIGATIONAL/MARINE and NATURAL HAZARD. These data do not necessarily represent all socioeconomic features found in the Great Lakes - Straits of Mackinac region. 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 a several consistency checks, and processed into the final delivery format. Sources and Process Steps cited below in this metadata record include those used for two distinct areas of the Great Lakes: the Straits of Mackinac in northern Michigan, and the St. Clair / Detroit River System in southeastern Michigan. This is because these two study areas were initially combined into a single ArcGIS geodatabase, before being separated for publication. Some sources may pertain to both study areas, while others may pertain to one study area and not the other. As a final procedural step to prepare the geodatabases for publication, the spatial data data corresponding to each respective area were clipped in ArcGIS according to the two distinct geographic study areas. Information on socioeconomic features within the GL_Mackinac_StClair_Detroit_River 2019 ESI study region were acquired from multiple sources. Socioeconomic features represented as polylines include: pipelines (PL), railroads (RR), and roads (R). Features represented as points include: abandoned vessels (AV), airports (A), archaeological sites (AS), campgrounds (C), epa facilities (EPAF), heliports (HP), historical sites (HS), and renewable energy sites (RE). Features represented as polygons include beaches (B) and campgrounds (C). 2019-09-23T00:00:00 ESI Program Manager orr.esi@noaa.gov processor These data were developed as SOCECON_POINTS, SOCECON_LINES, and SOCECON_POLYGONS feature classes within the GL_Mackinac_StClair_Detroit_River 2019 ESI, following ESI Guidelines. Additional data are contained in the joined table SOC_DAT using HUNUM as a unique ID, and in SOURCES using SOURCE_ID as a unique ID. Depending on the type of source data, 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 1:50,000 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 on the type of source data for this data layer. 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 SOCECON_POINT, SOCECON_LINE, or SOCECON_POLY data layers are made based on the recommendations of the resource experts, and final hardcopy maps and digital data are created. 2019-09-23T00:00:00 ESI Program Manager orr.esi@noaa.gov processor The main data sources that were used to depict human-use resources for the SOCECON_LINE data layer were: 1) the Michigan Geographic Framework (MGF), the U.S. Energy Information Administration (USEIA), and 2) data digitization by Research Planning, Inc. using Environmental Systems Research Institute (ESRI) Basemap Imagery from 2019. MGF and USEIA provided digital vector polyline datasets. 2019-09-23T00:00:00 ESI Program Manager orr.esi@noaa.gov processor The main data sources that were used to depict human-use resources for the SOCECON_POINT data layer were: 1) personal interviews with resource experts from the Macomb County, Michigan Land and Water Resources organization and also the Michigan Department of Natural Resources (MIDNR) 2) NOAA ERD and OCS 3) U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT) Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS) and 4) The American Wind Energy Association (AWEA). All data provided were digital vector point datasets. 2019-09-23T00:00:00 ESI Program Manager orr.esi@noaa.gov processor Two digital vector polygon datasets were used to depict human-use resources for the SOCECON_POLY data layer, both originating from Michigan Department of Natural Resources (MIDNR). The datasets represented beaches (2019) and campgrounds (2018). 2019-09-23T00:00:00 ESI Program Manager orr.esi@noaa.gov processor Sources and Process Steps cited above in this metadata record include those used for two distinct areas of the Great Lakes: the Straits of Mackinac in northern Michigan, and the St. Clair / Detroit River System in southeastern Michigan.
