This data set comprises a portion of the ESI data for Florida. 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 ESIP data layer, part of the larger Florida Panhandle ESI database, for additional ESI information. The ESI data provide sensitive areas data for oil spill planning and response and other environmental management and natural resource purposes. The Clean Water Act with amendments by the Oil Pollution Act of 1990 requires response plans for immediate and effective protection of sensitive areas. These data also support other related state and federal regulatory requirements for oil spill prevention, planning, response, and restoration.20092023The data were compiled during 2021-2023. The currentness dates for this data range from 2009 to 2023 and are documented in the Lineage section.CompleteA 5-year update cycle is planned with some maintenance and field verification likely on an annual basis-87.53319-83.6978430.7739329.54792ISO 19115 Topic CategorybiotaenvironmentNoneESISensitivity mapsCoastal resourcesOil spill planningCoastal Zone ManagementG_WISWildlifeShoreline habitatsNatural Resource Damage AssessmentNoneCoastal FloridaSouthwest FloridaThese data are unrestricted.

Additional funding was received from FWC, FWRI. Timyn Rice, State Scientific Support Coordinator (SSC), assisted greatly in all aspects of the project s completion and served as contract and technical manager for the project. Timyn Rice, Christi Santi, Ryan Druyor, Steven Nicholl, and other FWRI staff contributed significantly to the project, as did many other individuals from state and federal agencies and other organizations. Access to aerial photography was provided by Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission - Florida Fish and Wildlife Research Institute and NOAA. The biological and human-use data included on the maps were provided by numerous individuals and agencies, including: FWC, FWC-FWRI, USFWS, NPS, FNAI, NOAA, FL DEP, USGS, Florida Sea Grant, and DISL. Staff at these agencies contributed a vast amount of information to this effort, including first-hand expertise, publications, maps, and digital data. At Research Planning, Inc. (RPI) of Columbia, South Carolina, numerous scientific, GIS, and graphic staff were involved with different phases of the project. Mark White, GIS Director, was Project Manager. Shoreline habitat mapping was conducted by Jennifer Horsman, Katy Beckham, and Lee Diveley. The biological and human-use data were collected and compiled by Jen Weaver, Seamus Harrison, Lauren Szathmary, Christine Boring, Jeff Dahlin, and Katy Beckham. Lee Diveley, Katy Beckham, and Jeff Dahlin entered, processed, and produced the GIS data. Wendy Early created the final documents.The software packages used to develop the atlas are Environmental Systems Research Institute's ArcGIS for Desktop(R), ArcPro(R), and SQL SERVER(R). The hardware configuration is PC's with Microsoft Windows Operating System. The following Geodatabase Feature Classes are included in the data set: aoi, benthic, benthicpt, birds, esil, esip, fish, habitats, herp, hydrol, hydrop, invert, m_mammal, managed_point, managed_poly, nav_marine_point, political_point, resource_line, resource_point, resource_poly, socecon_line, socecon_point, socecon_poly, and t_mammal. Associated relational and desktop data tables are biocomb, biores, breed, seasonal, soc_dat, sources, species, and status.A multi-stage error checking process is used to verify both attribute accuracy and logical consistency throughout data production. The process includes a standardized data entry methodology, data review by in-house and external resource experts, a final Quality Assurance/Quality Control (QA/QC) process, and multiple automated logical consistency checks. Quantitative data (such as densities, counts, abundances, or concentrations) provided by resource experts for inclusion in the data set may vary widely in attribute accuracy, depending upon the methodology used to collect and compile such data. For a more detailed evaluation of source data attribute accuracy, contact the sources listed in the Lineage section. The attribute accuracy is estimated to be 'good' given the years of ESI experience, the data input methodology, the quality control review sessions, and the digital logical consistency checks.A multi-stage error checking process, described in the above Attribute_Accuracy_Report, is used to verify both attribute accuracy and logical consistency throughout data production. This process includes multiple automated logical consistency checks that test the files for missing or duplicate data, rules for proper coding, GIS topological consistencies, and SQL SERVER(R) to ArcGIS(R) consistencies. A final review is made by the ESI manager, where the data are written to CD-ROM and the metadata are written. RARNUM's are defined on an element basis, so 'resources at risk' groupings will contain only a single element.These data represent coastal shorelines classified according to the Environmental Sensitivity Index (ESI) classification system. See also the ESIP data layer, part of the larger Florida Panhandle ESI database, for additional ESI information.The spatial location of the ESI shoreline was developed from pre-existing digital sources and reflects the positional accuracy of these original data. The minimum mapping unit (MMU) of the actual shoreline classification segments is estimated at 50 meters where mapping is conducted using 1:24,000 hardcopy fieldmaps. Field verification has shown that the absolute positional accuracy of breaks between shoreline ESI types with a 95-percent error bound is approximately 58 meters. See the Lineage and Process_Description sections for more information on the original source data and how these data were integrated or manipulated to create the final data set.ESRI2020RASTER DIGITAL DATAONLINE20182020DATE OF PUBLICATIONNONEESIL INFORMATIONFLORIDA FISH AND WILDLIFE CONSERVATION COMMISSION (FWC)2023RASTER DIGITAL DATAUNPUBLISHEDDISC2023DATE OF SURVEYNONEESIL INFORMATIONFLORIDA FISH AND WILDLIFE CONSERVATION COMMISSION (FWC)2023RASTER DIGITAL DATAUNPUBLISHEDDISC20232023DATE OF SURVEYNONEESIL INFORMATIONGOOGLE2021RASTER DIGITAL DATAONLINE20132021DATE OF ACCESSNONEESIL INFORMATIONMARINE RESOURCE GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION SYSTEM, FLORIDA FISH AND WILDLIFE CONSERVATION COMMISSION2010RASTER DIGITAL DATAST.

Florida Panhandle shorelines from the 2012 ESI edition that were not updated in the 2021 ESI edition were evaluated for positional accuracy and corrected, if necessary, with a combination of National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Continually Updated Shoreline Product (CUSP, 2007-2021), Northwest Florida Water Management District (NWFWMD) Land Cover and Land Use dataset (2019), Suwannee River Water Management District (SRWMD) Land Cover and Land Use dataset (2019-2020), and Florida Fish and Wildlife Commission (FWC) 3-inch resolution orthophotography. The most recent and/or highest quality shoreline was utilized where available. The intertidal shoreline habitats that were not classified in the 2021 ESI edition were accessed and reclassified, if necessary, based on FWC 3-inch resolution orthophotography (2023), FWC 6-inch resolution orthophotography (2023), Microsoft Bing Maps low-altitude oblique aerial Birds Eye View photography, and Environmental Systems Research Institute (ESRI) Basemap World Imagery. Shoreline features of five meters or greater in length were classified where discernible. Where necessary, multiple types were described for each shoreline segment. The above digital and/or hardcopy sources were compiled to create the ESIL data layer. Depending on the type of source data, three general approaches are used for compiling the data layer: 1) hardcopy maps are digitized at their source scale; 2) digital data layers are evaluated and used "as is" or integrated with the hardcopy data sources; and 3) overflight changes are digitized from the scanned and registered hardcopy field maps or aerial photography. After the initial shoreline classification, these data are edgematched and checked for logical consistency errors. Review maps are plotted at 1:24,000 scale for verification of polygonal and linear attributes. See the Lineage section for additional information on the type of source data for this data layer. The ESI, biology, and human-use data are compiled into the standard ESI digital data format. A second set of interviews with participating resource experts are conducted to review the compiled data. If necessary, edits to the ESIL data layer are made based on the recommendations of the resource experts, and final hardcopy maps and digital data are created.202306Florida Wildlife Research Institute (FWRI)GISLibrarianPhysical address

In many cases shorelines are ranked with multiple codes, such as "6B/3A" (listed landward to seaward from left to right). The first code, "6B", is the most landward shoreline type and the second code, "3A", is the shoreline type closest to the water. Singular shoreline types are listed below. No multiple codes are listed, but all multiple codes included in the data set can be assembled from the codes described. The ESI rankings progress from low to high susceptibility to oil spills. To determine the sensitivity of a particular intertidal shoreline habitat, the following factors are integrated: 1) Shoreline type (substrate, grain size, tidal elevation, origin); 2) Exposure to wave and tidal energy; 3) Biological productivity and sensitivity; 4) Ease of cleanup. Prediction of the behavior and persistence of oil in intertidal habitats is based on an understanding of the dynamics of the coastal environments, not just the substrate type and grain size. The intensity of energy expended upon a shoreline by wave action, tidal currents, and river currents directly affects the persistence of stranded oil. The need for shoreline cleanup activities is determined, in part, by the slowness of natural processes in removal of oil stranded on the shoreline. The potential for biological injury, and ease of cleanup of spilled oil are also important factors in the ESI ranking. Generally speaking, areas exposed to high levels of physical energy, such as wave action and tidal currents, and low biological activity rank low on the scale, whereas sheltered areas with associated high biological activity have the highest ranking.NOAA ESI Guidelines1BExposed, Solid Man-made StructuresNOAA ESI Guidelines3AFine- to Medium-grained Sand BeachesNOAA ESI Guidelines3BScarps and Steep Slopes (Sand)NOAA ESI Guidelines4Coarse-grained Sand BeachesNOAA ESI Guidelines5Mixed Sand and Gravel (Shell) BeachesNOAA ESI Guidelines6AGravel (Shell) BeachesNOAA ESI Guidelines6BRiprapNOAA ESI Guidelines7Exposed Tidal FlatsNOAA ESI Guidelines8BSheltered, Solid Man-made StructuresNOAA ESI Guidelines8CSheltered RiprapNOAA ESI Guidelines9ASheltered Tidal FlatsNOAA ESI Guidelines9BVegetated Low BanksNOAA ESI Guidelines10ASalt- and Brackish-water MarshesNOAA ESI Guidelines10BFreshwater MarshesNOAA ESI Guidelines10CSwampsNOAA ESI Guidelines10DScrub-shrub WetlandsNOAA ESI GuidelinesLINEType of geographic feature.NOAA ESI GuidelinesBBreakwaterNOAA ESI GuidelinesHHydrographyNOAA ESI GuidelinesJJettyNOAA ESI GuidelinesSShorelineNOAA ESI GuidelinesENVIRType of regional environment.NOAA ESI GuidelinesEEstuarineNOAA ESI GuidelinesMOST_SENSITIVEIf multiple shoreline types appear in ESI classification, this field represents the highest value (most sensitive type);
