19861972 1990 1995 2000
10. Data – Historical Aerial Imagery
Available for American Samoa, CNMI,
Guam, and Hawai‘i
15. Data – Hawai’i Ocean Uses
The Pacific Regional Ocean Uses Atlas Project (PROUA) is
an interagency collaboration between NOAA and the
Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) designed to
document where coastal communities use the ocean
across a full range of typical human activities and sectors.
17. Data – Hawai’i Ocean Uses
Heat map showing the number of all overlapping dominant use
areas. Dominant use areas are defined as ocean areas routinely
used by most users most of the time
18. Digital Coast: Tools
• Tsunami Information Tool
• Land Cover Atlas
• Historical Hurricane Tracks
• Coastal County Snapshots and
Economics: National Ocean Watch
• Sea Level Rise Viewer
• CanVis
• OpenNSPECT
• Habitat Priority Planner
19. Tools – Tsunami Information Tool
Available in Guam and Hawai‘i
Website
and Smartphones
20. Tools – Land Cover Atlas
Available in American Samoa, Guam, and Hawai‘i
21. Tools – Sea Level Rise Viewer
Available in American Samoa, CNMI, Guam, and Hawaii
Online data viewer simulates various sea level rise scenarios (from
one to six feet above the average highest tides) and the
corresponding areas that would be impacted by flooding.
24. Tools – OpenNSPECT
The Nonpoint Source
Pollution and Erosion
Comparison Tool
(OpenNSPECT) investigates
potential water quality
impacts from development,
other land uses, and climate
change.
The tool simulates erosion,
pollution, and their
accumulation from
overland flow.
30. Tools – Economics: National Ocean Watch
Time-series data on the ocean and Great Lakes economy, which includes six economic
sectors dependent on the oceans Based on data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics and
the Bureau of Economic Analysis.
32. Tools – Habitat Priority Planner
Helps to identify priority locations for
conservation and restoration planning
• Inventory habitat conditions
• Identify, rank, and prioritize
restoration or conservation sites
• Provide spatial planning support to
natural resource managers
• Analyze proposed changes in land
use or land cover
• Create maps, reports, and queries
33. Digital Coast: Training
Courses Emphasize
• Technical Skills
• Effective Projects
• Working with People
• Coastal Issues
Delivery Methods
• Classroom, Instructor-Led
• Online, Instructor-led
• Online, Self-Guided
Wide Variety of Focus Areas
The Digital Coast Partnership represents many of the website's diverse user groups. Partners participate in the development and outreach of this information resource, providing assurance that the products and services are relevant and are used to address pressing needs such as resilience planning and habitat conservation.
Today I will be talking about data and tools available for the pacific.
These images are part of a project funded by NOAA Office for Coastal Management to develop a high quality, user-friendly, attributed, centralized, multi-territorial digital database of georeferenced historic aerial imagery in the Pacific Islands region, including Hawaii, American Samoa, Guam, and the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands. The objective of this project is to make previously unavailable historic aerial imagery of the Pacific Islands available for public consumption through NOAA's Digital Coast website. These images were scanned on a flatbed scanner and georeferenced to existing basemap data.
Simulation
Advance search allows to search hurricane activity that includes El Niño/La Niña events, by hurricane category, year and months.
View and interact with Economics: National Ocean Watch (ENOW) data for your state or county without having to download the data set. Use the ENOW Explorer to describe and compare the six sectors of the ocean.
Provides a quick summary of your ocean economy
Compares your ocean economy to other states and counties
Displays the composition of your ocean economy
Shows how your ocean economy has changed over time
Produces downloadable graphics
Data is available in the data registry
HPP is a geospatial planning tool that can be used to:
Inventory habitat conditions
Identify, rank, and prioritize restoration and/or conservation sites
Provide spatial planning support to natural resource managers
Analyze proposed changes in land use or land cover
Create maps, reports, and queries
The program allows users to easily test various ideas and "what if" scenarios on the fly, making it the perfect tool to use in a group setting.
