Integral radiators integrate the primary structural system and the thermal rejection system into a dual function subsystem allowing for reduced weight. The design of these systems require a careful trade-off of thermal fluids, structural materials, thermal coatings and structural shape. The Paragon Crescent panels are a family of solutions that allow a highly efficient stressed skin, semi-monocoque structure to also be a radiator on the external surface of a Apollo-like Service Module as envisioned for the CEV. The resulting design optimizes the structural/thermal trade-off while allowing for practical considerations of manufacturability, ground handling, testing, and access. The baseline materials and fluids chosen address cost, safety and robust design. Some coating development is still needed to meet the handling requirements. The structural concept will need to be tested to validate modeling predictions and gain experience in structural behavior. Finally, full up radiator panels need to be manufactured and tested to validate the manufacturing methods, thermal analysis, and overall radiator/thermal fluid choices.

This tile cache service shows the locations of both in service and out of service submarine telecommunication cables from the North American Submarine Cable Association (NASCA) in coastal and offshore waters within the Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ). Submarine cable data were originally received from NASCA as Route Position Lists (RPLs), and geospatial products were later received from Pacific Marine Systems, which had contracted with NASCA to produce datasets using the same RPLs. The geospatial data from Pacific Marine Systems were compared against the RPLs and subsequently used in tile cache creation. Submarine cable locations were screened out within 100 meters of landfall, in addition to cable segments that extend beyond the EEZ and do not reenter U.S. maritime waters. Cables which exit and reenter U.S. waters remained intact. Cables are visible from a scale range of 1:18,489,298 to 1:36,112. Each cable contains annotation which references cable name, segment (if applicable), and ownership. Annotation is available at scales from 1:577,791 to 1:72,224. Visual representation of cables and annotation used published NASCA charts on NASCA's website (http://www.n-a-s-c-a.org/cable-maps) as a guide.

Summary
Description
Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) data is remotely sensed high-resolution elevation data collected by an airborne collection platform. This LiDAR dataset is a survey of areas of coastal New York, including Long Island, eastern Westchester, and the tidal extents of the Hudson River. The project area consists of approximately 950 square miles. The project design of the LiDAR data acquisition was developed to support a nominal post spacing of 1.0 meter or better (1.0 meter GSD). The LiDAR data vertical accuracy is in compliance with the National Standard for Spatial Data Accuracy (NSSDA) RMSE estimation of elevation data in support of 1 ft. contour mapping products. GMR Aerial Surveys Inc. d/b/a Photo Science, Inc. acquired 740 flight lines in 63 lifts between November 2011 and April 2012, while no snow was on the ground, rivers were at or below normal levels, no strong onshore winds, high waves, floods, or other anomalous weather conditions. Specified areas of the project were collected at a tide stage where water levels are at least 1-foot below mean sea level (MSL). This collection was a joint effort by the NOAA Office for Coastal Management (OCM) and the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation. The data collection was performed with three Cessna 206 single engine aircrafts, utilizing Optech Gemini sensors; collecting multiple return x, y, and z as well as intensity data. The data were classified as Unclassified (1), Ground (2), Low Point (Noise) (7), Water (9), Breakline Edge (10), Withheld (11), Tidal Water (14), Overlap Default (17), and Overlap Ground (18), Overlap Water (25), and Overlap Tidal Water (30). Upon receipt, the NOAA Office for Coastal Management (OCM), for data storage and Digital Coast provisioning purposes, converted these classifications to the following: 1 - Unclassified 2 - Ground 7 - Low Point (Noise) 9 - Water NOAA tide gauges were used as the basis for flight planning the tidally coordinated areas. The Stevens Institute NY Harbor Observation and Prediction System (NYHOPS) data were used to confirm accuracy of NOAA predicted tides in Hudson. Some areas were collected using tidal restraints as listed below: Tidal Wetlands and tributary mouths selected for tidal coordination at Mean Sea Level (MSL) minus 1 foot were: Rondout Creek Outlet; Vanderburg Cove, Moodna Creek, Constitution Marsh, Iona Marsh, Annsville Creek, Croton River Outlet, Marlboro Marsh, Manitou Marsh, Fishkill Creek Outlet, and Wappingers Creek Outlet. The Upper Hudson area from North of Goose Island was also collected to the same specification. Tidal Wetlands and tributary mouths selected for tidal coordination at Mean Sea Level (MSL) were Haverstraw at Minisceongo Creek and Piermont Marsh. On Long Island the following areas were collected at MSL: 1) the northern shore of Nassau and Suffolk counties from approximately Glen Cove on the western boundary to Nissequogue on the eastern boundary 2) the Peconic Bay from Riverhead on the western boundary to the east end of Shelter Island and Accabonac Harbor on the eastern boundary 3) western Great South Bay. The remainder of the project area had no tidal restrictions for collection. LAS tiles indicate if they are tidally coordinated or not. If tidal coordination only covers part of the tile the tile will be labeled tidally coordinated (i.e.MSL-1). In order to post process the LiDAR data to meet task order specifications, Photo Science, Inc. established a total of 81 control points that were used to calibrate the LiDAR to known ground locations established throughout the New York project area. Trimble R8-3 GNSS receivers were used to complete the collection. Real Time Kinematic (RTK) survey methodology was typically performed using the New York State Spatial Reference Network (NYSNet), a CORS/Real Time GPS Network. Additionally, control values from various other projects completed by Photo Science in and around the project area, were used as supplemental control points to assist in the calibration of the LiDAR dataset. The dataset was developed based on a horizontal projection/datum of UTM NAD83 (NSRS2007), UTM Zone 18, meters and vertical datum of NAVD1988 (GEOID09), meters. Upon receipt, for data storage and Digital Coast provisioning purposes, the NOAA Office for Coastal Management converted the data to GRS80 Ellipsoid (GEOID09) heights, to geographic (NAD83, NSRS2007) coordinates, and from las format to laz format. LiDAR data were collected in RAW flightline swath format, processed to create Classified LAS 1.2 files formatted to 2093 individual 750m x 750m tiles, Hydro Flattening Breaklines in ESRI shapefile format, 1.0 meter gridded Tidal Water ERDAS IMAGINE (.img) files formatted to 670 individual 3000m x 3000m tiles, and 1.0 meter gridded V-Datum ERDAS IMAGINE (.img) files formatted to the same 3000m x3000m tile schema. LiDAR data were originally delivered to NOAA/Dewberry for quality control validation under Delivery Lots 1 and 2. The lineage (data quality), positional, content (completeness), attribution, logical consistency, and accuracies of all digital elevation data produced conform to the specifications stipulated in NOAA Task Order EA133C11CQ0009 - T011.

This data set consists of hydrogeology for the State of Nevada. Consolidated rocks and unconsolidated sediments are the two major hydrogeologic units. Consolidated rocks are subdivided into 8 hydrogeologic units: (1) carbonate rocks, Quaternary to Tertiary-age; (2) basaltic, (3) rhyolitic, and (4) andesitic volcanic flows; (5) volcanic breccias, tuffs, and volcanic rocks older than Tertiary-age; (6) intrusive and metamorphic rocks; (7) consolidated and semi-consolidated tuffaceous rocks and sediments; and (8) clastic rocks consisting of sandstone and siltstone. Unconsolidated sediments are subdivided into 4 hydrogeologic units: 1) alluvial slopes, (2) valley floors, (3) fluvial deposits, and (4) playas. In addition, soil permeability is provided and grouped into five descriptive categories ranging from very high to very low, which generally correspond to mapped geomorphic features such as playas and alluvial slopes. The geologic map of Nevada (Stewart and Carlson, 1978), published at a scale of 1:500,000, is the primary source of lithology used to delineate hydrogeologic units, enhanced with elevation and hydrologic data, and supplemented with Landsat Thematic Mapper imagery (Maurer and others, 2004).
