Title: Piers, Ramps and Docks from Historic Florida Shoreline
Geospatial_Data_Presentation_Form: vector digital data
Description:
Abstract:
Piers, ramps, and docks (F_CODE = 30) in Florida are selected out from the historic NOAA composite shoreline to create this feature class. These data are derived from shoreline data that were produced by the NOAA National Ocean Service including its predecessor agencies. This is not a current depection of all piers, ramps and docks in Florida.
Purpose:
Shoreline spatial data are considered a crucial element in land use planning, determination of boundary extents, performing change analysis for erosion and accretion studies, and other types of decision making

Data_Quality_Information:
Attribute_Accuracy:
Attribute_Accuracy_Report:
The attribute accuracy was tested by creating checkplots of the coded linework. The different codes depict shoreline, piers, dikes, jetties, breakwaters, and groins. A light table review of the checkplots would reveal any inaccurate coding. Mistakes would be identified and corrected until accurate checkplots were produced. The feature codes (f-codes) are identified as follows: approximate shoreline (1); apparent shoreline (3); shoreline plane of reference (SPOR) (7); dike or levee (25); jetty, breakwater, or groin (27); shoreline along feature boundaries (28); pier, ramp, or dock (30); general class for man-made objects that form a shore or waterline to include - wells or oil platforms, wrecks, locks, dry docks, revetments, seawalls, wharves, marine railroads, or shorelines of seaplane bases or anchorages (38); control point or shoreline map correction line (139); map extent line (-1000); user added arc (-9999); state boundary (-9997); state water (-9996).
Logical_Consistency_Report:
Linework was vectorized to the neatline of the shoreline map. All data crossing the neatline was clipped to the neatline. All arcs were snapped by the nodes to create consistently tied strings without node dangles.
Completeness_Report:
These shoreline data adequately represent the shoreline at the time of the NOS source survey.
Positional_Accuracy:
Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy:
Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report:
Vector data derived from rectified raster images of NOS coastal survey maps using ArcInfo software. These shoreline data are referenced to the North American Datum of 1983 (NAD83). Vector shoreline was extracted from map images adequately representing the shoreline shown on original NOS source surveys.

Title:
Composite Shoreline of the United States of America from NOAA-NOS Coastal Services Center (CSC)
Edition: First
Geospatial_Data_Presentation_Form: Map
Other_Citation_Details:
These data were created by the National Ocean Service, National Geodetic Survey (previously the National Ocean Survey) as part of its ongoing mission to map the coastline of the United States. The NOAA National Ocean Service, Coastal Services Center developed the procedures used in this project and was responsible for project oversight. The project intent was to rescue valuable historical data and make it accessible and useful to digital mapping products. This file is a further conversion of that product from a raster to a vector product that may be useful for Electronic Charting and Display Information Systems (ECDIS) and geographic information systems (GIS).

Process_Step:
Process_Description:
(1) Create a new Geodatabase and new feature dataset with the full extent for the state of interest. Make sure when creating the feature dataset that the XY extent is at least more than double the state of interest. In most cases, it is beneficial to set the XY extent to the entire US. (2) Compile all relevant data layers for state of interest. Make sure to check the survey date for each of the shoreline layers. Remove all shoreline files that were created prior to 1900, due to the V-Datum issue. (3) Rank layers according to the survey date of the shoreline data. Before appending the different project files (layers) that make up the entire state, the analyst must determine which layers overlap. (4) Based on the ranking, the more recent shoreline layer is used as the "erase" feature with the layer it intersects. This process is repeated for all overlapping layers. (5) Edit polyline and polygon extents if needed. In some cases the extent of one data layer overlaps key shoreline features that make up an adjacent data layer. (6) Create area representing bounding area of individual shoreline projects for purposes removing overlapping shoreline features from adjacent shapefile of polyline neatlines for the individual project areas. Create shapefile of polyline neatlines for the individual project areas. (7) Check geometry of polyline neatlines shapefile. (8) After checking, and if needed fixing geometry, convert above output (polyline neatlines shapefile that has been checked) to polygon feature. (9) Remove overlapping areas of shoreline layers; priority given to most recent project areas. Use output from above step to erase overlapping area of adjacent shoreline layers. (10) Match schema of all shoreline files that will be used in the composite shoreline file. Includes outputs from step 8, as well as all other shoreline layers that comprise the state of interest. (11) Append all polyline shoreline files together (and do the same for the polygon shoreline files). (12) Create state boundary (land and offshore boundary) using Center?s sde states layer. Use neighboring state boundaries to ensure no overlaps. (13) Clip output from step 10 with state boundary (land and offshore). Also, clip polygon shoreline file with state boundary. (14) Clip Electronic Vector Shoreline (EVS) polyline file with state boundary (land and offshore). For creation of EVS polygon file, append output from step 13 (state EVS polyline file) with state boundary. Once appended, convert to polygon. (15) Use polygon output from step 12 (state polygon shoreline) to erase both state EVS polyline and polygon files.
Process_Step:
Process_Description:
(16) Use outputs from individual state composite shorelines and use merge tool to create national composite shoreline. (17) Perform QA/QC on national composite shoreline, specifically at areas where project files intersect, need to connect shorelines with user added line. Use adjacent neatlines and recode accordingly: F_CODE: -9999, F_NAME: User added line.

Enumerated_Domain_Value_Definition:
Lines which are added to the vector coverage by the data entry operator and do not appear on the source map. Reasons for the added lines vary. The most common reason is that double- banked streams may abruptly stop on the source map due to lack of aerial photography. In order for polygons to be made and distinction given to areas of water vs. land, the "dangling" ends of these streams must be connected together by an arbitrary "phantom" line that holds no special meaning.
