GL_LAKE_ONTARIO_2023 ESI SOCECON Lines, Points

These feature classes reside within the SOCECON Feature Data Set of the Lake Ontario 2023 ESI Geodatabase. They contain vector lines and points representing Socioeconomic human-use resource data for Lake Ontario and adjacent lands and waters. Vector lines in this data set represent major crude oil pipelines and vector points represent human-use or management resource data for airports, beaches, heliports, and historical sites for Lake Ontario. The study area includes the United States portion of Lake Ontario, covering the islands in New York: Association Island, Bass Island, Calf Island, Carl Island, Cherry Island, Eagle Island, Fox Island, Galloo Islands, Grenadier Island, Horse Island, Hoveys Island, Six Point Town, and Stony Island. Major Lake Ontario bays mapped include: Black River Bay, Blind Sodus Bay, Braddock Bay, Chaumont Bay, Guffin Bay, Irondequoit Bay, Henderson Bay, Little Sodus Bay, Mexico Bay, Port Bay, Sawyer Bay, and Sodus Bay. Object specific Type and Source information are stored in the related data tables, SOC_DAT and SOURCES (described below). These are stand-alone tables within the Geodatabase, designed to be used in conjunction with these spatial data layers. This data set is a portion of the ESI data for the Lake Ontario System. As a whole, the ESI data characterize the marine and coastal environments and wildlife by their sensitivity to spilled oil, and include information for three main components: shoreline habitats, sensitive biological resources, and human-use resources.
