The Digital Flood Insurance Rate Map (DFIRM) Database depicts flood risk information and supporting data used to develop the risk data. The primary risk classifications used are the 1-percent-annual-chance flood event, the 0.2-percent-annual- chance flood event, and areas of minimal flood risk. The DFIRM Database is derived from Flood Insurance Studies (FISs), previously published Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRMs), flood hazard analyses performed in support of the FISs and FIRMs, and new mapping data, where available. The FISs and FIRMs are published by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA).The file is georeferenced to earth's surface using the State Plane 1983 projection and coordinate system. The specifications for the horizontal control of DFIRM data files are consistent with those required for mapping at a scale of 1:12,000.

The gravity data (300 records) were compiled by Purdue University. This data base was received in February 1993. Principal gravity parameters include Free-air Anomalies and Simple Bouguer Anomalies (no terrain correction applied). The observed gravity values are referenced to the International Gravity Standardization Net 1971 (IGSN 71). The gravity anomaly computation uses the Geodetic Reference System 1967 (GRS 67) theoretical gravity formula. The data appear as 3 transect lines-- two parallel lines in a northwest to southeast direction and one line in a northeast to southwest direction.

The goals of the project included the following: 1. Conduct an initial assessment of coral reefs within and adjacent to the Guam National Wildlife Refuge, Ritidian Unit to evaluate the condition and health of the reefs. 2. Establish and survey permanently marked monitoring transects at the Refuge as the baseline for documenting long term changes in the reefs. 3. Install oceanographic and water quality loggers at the Refuges reef sites to assess the potential for global warming, coral bleaching, and selected anthropogenic contaminants. 4. Prepare a draft report of findings of the surveys to improve future iterations of the surveys, to focus on future training of refuge staff to accomplish some monitoring and assessment tasks, and to improve management of the Refuges reefs.

<p>For the first two years of the project (FY12-13), the RadWorks project has consisted of two top-level elements. The first element involved the prototype and maturation of advanced, miniaturized radiation measurement technologies, and demonstration through available platforms of these technologies as integrated vehicle systems. The second element was the provision of ground based hardware and virtual demonstrators of radiation storm-shelter capabilities by providing multi-functionality in design elements, utilizing existing launch mass as compared to methods involving the addition of dedicated shielding mass. For FY14, the RadWorks project is continuing its maturation and prototyping of advanced, miniaturized radiation measurement technologies, along with their demonstrations. The RadWorks project will fly a simplified, non-integrated version of Radiation Environment Monitor (REM) aboard the Multi-Purpose Crew Vehicle (MPCV) Exploration Flight Test 1 (EFT-1) to validate system operation in a space radiation environment and record charged particle data for post-flight analysis. This REM unit has been designated as the Battery-Operated Independent Radiation Detector (BIRD).&nbsp;In addition, there are&nbsp;6 REM sensors flying as Detailed Test Objectives (DTO) on the International Space Station (ISS). These sensors are plugged into laptops and are measuring the ionizing radiation environment. Work will continue on the development of the Hybrid Electronic Radiation Assessor (HERA) which is slated to fly first as a FTO (Flight Test Objective) on the MPCV Experimental Module 1 (EM-1) flight, and secondly, as an integrated part of the CWS (Caution &amp; Warning System) on the MPCV Experimental Module 2 (EM-2) flight. Lastly, the RadWorks project will continue its development of an Advanced Neutron Spectrometer (ANS).</p><p>Also in FY14, the Storm Sheltering element of the project will transition away from specific shelter designs toward utilizing recently developed radiation modeling expertise, and modeling databases for comparison of simulation results to actual data. Comparative assessments will be conducted to correlate REM DTO data to radiation models, as applied to the current ISS configuration. Also, the RadWorks project will advance the development of radiation transport analytical software. This work will enable new designs and concepts of operation for radiation mitigation and protection of crew.</p>

It has been proven that the combination of smart sensors with embedded metadata and wireless technologies present real opportunities for significant improvements in reliability, cost-benefits, and safety for remote testing and measurement. Adding robust and self-construct network protocol for routing will further simplify testing installation process and increase test network reliability. While the idea of largely autonomous sensors is desirable, there are many issues of cooperation and control that need to be addressed. Specifically, the sensor fusion and the schema of smart sensor attributes: prediction, planning, updating, communication, and assimilation. The IEEE 1451 standard provides a basic communications link for sensors, but provides no methods specific to programming a sensor's data processing resources for data fusion. Combining IEEE 1451 and networked database, as well as health-enabled smart sensor fusion technology enables user to interface to sensor network to provide dynamic programming and access/monitor the health of sensor nodes. The sensor fusion technology is built upon an open-system architecture with standardized protocol modules/stacks such as SQL, HTML, XML, MATLAB, and LabVIEW.

Summary
Description
This CD-ROM set contains the historic archive of meteorological and oceanographic data collected by moored buoys and C-MAN stations operated by the NOAA National Data Buoy Center (NDBC). The files are sent to the National Oceanographic Data Center (NODC) for permanent archiving and distribution in NODC's F291 format. To reduce costs, the buoy data files on the CD-ROMs have been compressed. This set consists of 7 discs containing 16.5 gigabytes of data from the early 1970's through December 1997, with online Internet links to updated data, information, and time series plots available on the NODC website. The data files and inventories on the discs can be viewed with an Internet browser. Principal measured parameters reported by both moored buoys and C-MAN stations include air temperature and pressure, wind speed and direction, wind gust, and sea surface temperature. The buoys (and a few C-MAN stations located on offshore platforms) also report wave data, which usually includes wave height, wave period, and wave spectra. Since the late 1980s, some buoys have reported directional wave spectra. The data and information files are recorded in ASCII format. Disc 1 - Upper North Atlantic Buoys Disc 2 - Mid and Lower North Atlantic Buoys Disc 3 - Gulf of Mexico Buoys Disc 4 - Great Lakes Buoys Disc 5 - Lower Eastern US Coast Pacific Buoys Disc 6 - Upper Eastern US Coast Pacific Buoys Disc 7 - Alaska, Hawaii, and other Pacific Buoys Copies of these discs are currently available via the NODC Online Store at http://ols.nndc.noaa.gov/plolstore/plsql/olstore.prodspecific?prodnum=W00010-CDR-S0002
