Summary
Description
This layer of the National Elevation Dataset (NED) is 1 arc-second (approximately 30 m) resolution. The 1 arc-second NED are derived from diverse source data that are processed to a common coordinate system and unit of vertical measure. These data are distributed in geographic coordinates in units of decimal degrees, and in conformance with the North American Datum of 1983 (NAD 83). All elevation values are in meters and, over the continental United States, are referenced to the North American Vertical Datum of 1988 (NAVD88). The 1 arc-second NED layer provides seamless coverage of the conterminous United States, Hawaii, Mexico, Canada, Puerto Rico, other territorial islands, and in limited areas of Alaska. The 1 arc-second NED layer is available as pre-staged products tiled in 1 degree blocks in Erdas .img, ESRI arc-grid, and grid float formats. The NED is updated continually as new data become available. All NED data are in the public domain.

FUNCTION: Serves as a national testbed to support research in the emerging field of space robotics including autonomous rendezvous and capture, remote assembly operations, and machine learning. DESCRIPTION: Operated by the Naval Center for Space Technology, with strategic support from the Naval Center for Applied Research in Artificial Intelligence, this is the largest dual-platform motion simulator of its kind. It allows full-scale, hardware-in-the-loop testing of flight mechanisms, sensors, and logic of space robotic systems. The simulator also supports the study of other complex relative motion problems. Spacecraft orbit parameters, mass properties, and actuators are modeled in the central computer to enable the simulator to replicate vehicle motion response to external disturbances and internal orientation and position commands. Actuator signals normally going to wheels or thrusters are continually processed to compute incremental force and torque components that force the platform to respond dynamically as a spacecraft would on-orbit. INSTRUMENTATION: A dynamic motion simulator, with dual independent six-degreeof-freedom platforms, provides the ability to test space robotic systems under realistic dynamic and lighting conditions.
Mean annual runoff, precipitation, and evapotranspiration in the glaciated northeastern United States, 1951-80

Summary
Description
Two maps, compiled at 1:1,000,000 scale, depict mean annual runoff, precipitation, and evapotranspiration in the part of the United States east of Cleveland, Ohio and north of the southern limit of glaciation. The maps are mutually consistent in that runoff equals precipitation minus evapotranspiration everywhere. The runoff map is based on records of streamflow from 503 watersheds in the United States and southernmost Canada, adjusted to represent 1951-80 and supplemented by records of precipitation at 459 stations. Precipitation at each station was partitioned into point estimates of runoff and evapotranspiration, which were constrained such that the evapotranspiration estimates varied smoothly across the region and decreased with increasing latitude and altitude, and the runoff estimates were consistent with measured runoff from nearby watersheds. A point estimate of runoff was allowed to equal mean runoff in a nearby watershed, or to be somewhat higher (or lower) if a compensating departure from mean watershed runoff could be inferred in distant parts of the watershed on the basis of altitude or regional trends. Then, precipitation contours were drawn to parallel runoff contours but differ from them by the magnitude of nearby estimates of evapotranspiration. These maps may slightly underrepresent mean precipitation and evapotranspiration in areas of high relief because most precipitation stations in such areas are in valleys. These 3 coverages were used to produce Open-File Report 96-395. Additional information about methodology can be found in this report

Description
The Joint Airborne Lidar Bathymetry Technical Center of Expertise (JALBTCX) has performed a coastal survey along the MI coasts of Lake Superior, Lake Michigan and Lake Huron in 2008. The data types collected include bathymetry and topographic lidar point data, true color imagery and hyperspectral imagery. The collection effort follows the coastline and extends 500m inland and 1000m offshore or to laser extinction, whichever comes first. Topographic lidar is collected with 200% coverage, yielding a nominal 1m x 1m post-spacing. Where water conditions permit, the bathymetry lidar data will have a nominal post spacing of 4m x 4m. The true color imagery will have a pixel size approximately 35cm and the hyperspectral imagery will be provided in 1m pixels containing 36 bands between 375 - 1050 nm with 19 nm bandwidth. The final data will be tied to horizontal positions, provided in decimal degrees of latitude and longitude, and are referenced to the North American Datum of 1983 (NAD83). Vertical positions are referenced to the NAD83 ellipsoid and provided in meters. The National Geodetic Survey's (NGS) GEOID03 model is used to transform the vertical positions from ellipsoid to orthometric heights referenced to the North American Vertical Datum of 1988 (NAVD88). Once converted to orthometric heights, the data are then converted to the International Great Lakes Datum of 1985 (IGLD85) using the VDatum program from NOAA (National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration).

Description
These files contain classified topographic and bathymetric lidar data as unclassified valid topographic data (1) and valid topographic data classified as ground (2), Classes 1 and 2 are defined in accordance with the American Society for Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing (ASPRS) classification standards. The data were collected on November 16, 2012 and cover portions of the following counties: New Jersey - Bergen, Essex, Hudson, Middlesex, Monmouth, Ocean, Union New York - Bronx, Kings, Nassau, New York, Queens, Richmond, Suffolk, Westchester These data were collected by the Coastal Zone Mapping and Imaging Lidar (CZMIL) system. CZMIL integrates a lidar sensor with topographic and bathymetric capabilities, a digital camera and a hyperspectral imager on a single remote sensing platform for use in coastal mapping and charting activities. Native lidar data is not generally in a format accessible to most Geographic Information Systems (GIS). Specialized in-house and commercial software packages are used to process the native lidar data into 3-dimensional positions that can be imported into GIS software for visualization and further analysis. Horizontal positions, provided in decimal degrees of latitude and longitude, are referenced to the North American Datum of 1983 (NAD83). Vertical positions are referenced to the NAD83 ellipsoid and provided in meters. The National Geodetic Survey's (NGS) GEOID12A model is used to transform the vertical positions from ellipsoid to orthometric heights referenced to the North American Vertical Datum of 1988 (NAVD88). For data storage and Digital Coast provisioning purposes, the NOAA Coastal Services Center converted the data from orthometric heights referenced to the North American Vertical Datum of 1988 (NAVD88) to ellipsoid heights using the NGS GEOID12A model.

As the number of Operation Enduring Freedom/Operation Iraqi Freedom (OEF/OIF) Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) patients has grown, so has the need to track and monitor care to meet the lifelong needs of these veterans. In March 2007, a Computerized Patient Record System (CPRS) OIF/OEF TBI Screening Reminder was released. This is a first-line screening tool to identify potential TBI patients. Additional information about veterans who have been identified as possible TBI patients by the initial Screening Reminder is collected through a Comprehensive TBI evaluation. Reminder results, in the form of Health Factors, Comprehensive TBI evaluation data, and Comprehensive TBI Follow-up results of individual Veterans will be sent to a national database. This data will be aggregated in order to provide relevant responses to key stakeholders, such as members of Congress, to monitor the quality of care and to implement system improvements. In addition, tracking applications will be used to collect data on TBI patient appointments.

The Employment Cost Index (ECI) is a quarterly measure of the change in the cost of labor, free from the influence of employment shifts among occupations and industries. The compensation series includes changes in wages and salaries plus employer costs for employee benefits. The wage and salary series and benefit series provide the change for the two components of compensation. Employee benefit costs are calculated as cost-per-hour-worked for 21 benefits, ranging from employer payments for Social Security to paid time off for holidays. The survey covers all occupations in the civilian economy, which includes the total private economy (excluding farms and households), and the public sector (excluding the Federal government). Estimates are published for the private and public sectors separately, and are combined in a measure of change for the civilian economy.
