The 2006 Second Edition TIGER/Line files are an extract of selected geographic and cartographic information from the Census TIGER database. The geographic coverage for a single TIGER/Line file is a county or statistical equivalent entity, with the coverage area based on the latest available governmental unit boundaries. The Census TIGER database represents a seamless national file with no overlaps or gaps between parts. However, each county-based TIGER/Line file is designed to stand alone as an independent data set or the files can be combined to cover the whole Nation. The 2006 Second Edition TIGER/Line files consist of line segments representing physical features and governmental and statistical boundaries. The files contain information distributed over a series of record types for the spatial objects of a county. There are 19 record types, including the basic data record, the shape coordinate points, and geographic codes that can be used with appropriate software to prepare maps. Other geographic information contained in the files includes attributes such as feature identifiers/census feature class codes (CFCC) used to differentiate feature types, address ranges and ZIP Codes, codes for legal and statistical entities, latitude/longitude coordinates of linear and point features, landmark point features, area landmarks, and area boundaries.

Description:
This data set contains vector line map information. The vector data contain selected base categories of geographic features, and characteristics of these features, in digital form. The information was collected by clipping the existing STATSGO soils map to the State of Louisiana boundary. The data set used the existing STATSGO soil maps as a data development resource. The classified data was derived from actual field identification and sampling performed by the United States Department of Agriculture and the Soil Conservation Service. Review the metadata file for more information. Coverage is of the entire State of Louisiana. The original STATSGO map is a digital general soil association map developed by the National Cooperative Survey. It consists of a broad based inventory of soils and nonsoil areas that occur in a repeatable pattern on the landscape and that can be cartographically shown at the scale mapped. The soil maps for STATSGO are compiled by generalizing more detailed soil survey maps. Map unit composition for a STATSGO map is determined by transecting or sampling areas on the more detailed maps and expanding the data statistically to characterize the whole map unit. The data set consists of georeferenced digital map data and computerized attribute data. The map data are collected in 1- by 2- degree topographic quadrangle units and merged and distributed as statewide coverages. The soil map units are linked to attributes in the Map Unit Interpretations Record relational data base which give the proportionate extent of the component soils and their properties.

Description:
This is a polygon dataset delineating the geographic footprint of the 24k (7.5') series map sheets published by the USGS. Because most of these map sheets have also been scanned into DRGs, this index also represents the area of valid data on 24K DRGs for the area. Because the neatline of paper quad maps was formed by a regular grid in geographic coordinates, NAD27, this dataset was generated from a regular grid defined in that coordinate system. In subsequent processing this grid was projected to geographic coordinates, NAD83. The projection was done to make this dataset compatible with other vector data in the same coordinate system. As a result, the area enclosed by each polygon in this index represents the same geographic area depicted on the corresponding paper map, but the latitude / longitude value for each polygon side and and corner in geographic coordinates, NAD83 are not exact multiples of full and half degrees. The grid is not totally regular. In the Chandeleur Islands area, the normal footprint of USGS maps were shifted a few minutes east and west to cover the area with the fewest map sheets.

Because the neatline of paper quad maps was formed by a regular grid in geographic coordinates, NAD27, this dataset was generated from a regular grid defined in that coordinate system. In subsequent processing this grid was projected to geographic coordinates, NAD83. The projection was done to make this dataset compatible with other vector data in the same coordinate system. As a result, the area enclosed by each polygon in this index represents the same geographic area depicted on the corresponding paper map, but the latitude / longitude value for each polygon side and and corner in geographic coordinates, NAD83 are not exact multiples of full and half degrees. The arcs comprising the edges of each polygon were densified with intermediate vertices at 3.75 minute spacings. This will allow the sides of each polygon to curve as necessary under the influence of conic and other projections. The dataset is, for the most part, regular tiles representing a one degree width by half degree height area. The exception to this is the Mississippi River Delta Sheet which had an overedge to the south.

Description:
The 'Pit Study' was meant to identify the remnants of former oil extraction sites which pose the threat of creating an oil spill. These remnants include many other items besides the pits suggested by the study title. e.g. tank batteries, collection and separation apparatus, metering stations and wells. In these coastal water areas, erosion frequently exposes oil production elements that were formerly buried or on land, such as pipelines and manifold headers. Additionally, the cribbing surrounding a well may decay or fall away, leaving the well exposed. These exposed elements are susceptible to damage by boat traffic as well as a hazard to navigation. Pits of most concern are generally associated with production facilities and tank batteries where oil from multiple wells is collected. These pits were used for trash and as an emergency overflow for oil. Pits associated with wells themselves (Non-hazardous Oilfield Waste or NOW pits) generally only contained drilling fluids, rarely oil. These data are held in a point dataset [pit_study_LOSCO_1998] representing all completed phases of the project - phases 1-7. The point dataset may be linked to five other database files ([opametalsap7] [oparemactap7] [opawellidap7] [opasampleap7] [opaassessap7])that include attributes related to sampling performed at the site, the assessors who made the observations, well cross reference numbers, and recommended remedial action. The data set includes an ArcView project file to display the data and make all these appropriate linkages. The subjects of the pit study were identified through a variety of sources including NASA Aerial Photography, Landsat imagery, and oil well drilling/extraction permit data. It is important to note that the permitting process was not implemented until the mid 1940's, whereas the oil exploration/production in Louisiana commenced about 1906. This means there are many wells present which were never documented in a permit. Furthermore, poor location reference points in swampy areas, coupled with some operator independence, means that even permitted wells may have been located 200-300 feet from their permitted location. The contractors for LOSCO used this information as a guide for areas to investigate for potential oil spill sources. In the field, they noted all apparatus and pits with this potential, even if they were not looking for them in particular. The positions of these features were determined with GPS. The data associated with each point includes feature type, observations on the feature, and in some cases, photographs and/or site plans.

Download: [ oyster_leases_usace_1997.zip ]
Description:
This data set indicates the locations of oyster leases in Louisiana. The lease areas should be polygons, however, the source data has very poor topology including many 'polygons' which do not close and polygons which overlap. Additionally, adjacent polygons do not always share a side, but appear to replicate it without exact overlap (there are frequent gaps between polygons). It is not always clear if these gaps are just errors in the geometric description of the lease areas or represent unleased channels between the leases. For these reasons, the coverage has only been built as a line coverage. There are no useful attributes or labeling associated with the lease areas. The attributes that are associated with the data are a result of the conversion from a Microstation drawing file to an Arc Info coverage. The lineage of the source data is unclear, but the understanding is that a LADWF dataset was obtained/modified by LDNR, the USCOE obtained these data from LDNR, and may have done further processing including projection before providing the source data to LOSCO.

Description:
This is one data set of a data package consisting of thirteen point data sets that have as attributes the direction and velocity of ocean currents in the western Gulf of Mexico as determined by drift buoys from June 1993 to June 1994. The data are summarized by quarter degree cells and represent the time weighted average of drift direction and velocity for all drift buoys that entered the cell during the summary time period. Twelve of the data sets are one month averages, one data set is a one year average from all the months. These spatial extent, object count and range attribute metadata items apply in particular to the one-year average data set, however the general characteristics of the dataset (coordinate system, attributes and attribute definitions) apply to all thirteen.

EPA Region 6 NonAttainment Areas in Louisiana, current as of May 2006. This shapefile contains parish boundaries and attributes that determine whether the parishes are considered by the US EPA to be in NonAttainment, i.e. to not have met the air quality standards for 1-hour ozone, 8-hour ozone, carbon monoxide, or PM-10 pollutants. The US EPA Green Book (http://www.epa.gov/oar/oaqps/greenbk/index.html) was used to generate this dataset. The Green Book data was reviewed May 9, 2006, and this shapefile reflects the data available on May 9, 2006. Per the Green Book documentation, the 1-hour ozone designations were determined June 15, 2005, and the other pollutants were determined as of March 2, 2006.

Description:
This is a line dataset of navigated waterways fitting the LOSCO definition: it has been traveled by vessels transporting 10,000 gallons of oil or fuel as determined by extensive research conducted by LSU Department of Geography & Anthropology. All waterways south of the Gulf Intracoastal Waterway are assumed to be navigated as are all waterways within the Atchafalaya Basin so they were not digitized, and they are not part of this dataset. The line strings of this data set were created by heads-up digitizing following center lines of channels on the LOSCO Thematic Mapper mosaic. The lines are attributed with the length of stream segments and names. The names of the navigated waterways were researched from maps and local knowledge.

Description:
This data set contains vector point information. The orignal data set was collected through visual field observation by Greg Linscombe of LDWF and Robert H. Chabreck of LSU Agricultural Center. The observations were made while flying over the study areas (Louisiana Coastal Zone) in a Bell 206 Jet Ranger helicopter. Flight was along north/south transects spaced 1.87 miles apart from the Texas state line to the Mississippi state line. Vegetative data was obtained at pre-determined stations spaced at 0.5 miles along each transect. The stations were located using a Trimble Ag 122 Global Positioning system (GPS) and a computer running GPSView by Geowarehouse. This information was recorded manually into field tally sheets and later was entered into a Microsoft Access Database. At this point, this information was brought into a GIS application by converting the file to database format (dbf). A GIS software application was utilized to generate the points along the transect routes. The flight line data was used as a guide to generate the points along the transect routes. The data points produced were used as a guide for the production of marsh type delineation lines. The new data set resulted in a point coverage containing vegetative marsh type attributes along transect flight lines. Coverage is of the coastal region of the State of Louisiana.

Description:
The National Land Cover Database 2001 land cover layer for mapping zone 37A was produced through a cooperative project conducted by the Multi-Resolution Land Characteristics (MRLC) Consortium. The MRLC Consortium is a partnership of federal agencies (www.mrlc.gov), consisting of the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), the U.S. Forest Service (USFS), the National Park Service (NPS), the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS), the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) and the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS). One of the primary goals of the project is to generate a current, consistent, seamless, and accurate National Land cover Database (NLCD) circa 2001 for the United States at medium spatial resolution. This landcover map and all documents pertaining to it are considered "provisional" until a formal accuracy assessment can be conducted. For a detailed definition and discussion on MRLC and the NLCD 2001 products, refer to Homer et al. (2004) and http://www.mrlc.gov/mrlc2k.asp. The NLCD 2001 is created by partitioning the U.S. into mapping zones. A total of 66 mapping zones were delineated within the conterminous U.S. based on ecoregion and geographical characteristics, edge matching features and the size requirement of Landsat mosaics. Mapping zone 37A encompasses whole or portions of several states, including the states of Texas, Arkansas, and Louisiana. Questions about the NLCD mapping zone 37A can be directed to the NLCD 2001 land cover mapping team at the USGS/EROS, Sioux Falls, SD (605) 594-6151 or mrlc@usgs.gov.
