Popis

This data set contains human-use resource data for staging sites along the Hudson River. Vector points in this data set represent locations of possible staging areas that may be used during a spill response. This data set comprises a portion of the Environmental Sensitivity Index (ESI) data for the Hudson River. 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. See also the SOCECON (Socioeconomic Resource Points and Lines) and MGT (Management Area Polygons) data layers, part of the larger Hudson River ESI database, for additional human-use information.
