This CD-ROM product from the NOAA National Ocean Service Hazardous Materials Response and Assessment Division contains a collection of Environmental Sensitivity Index (ESI) maps and data in text and native .e00 files suitable for use with Geographic Information Systems (GIS) software. Samples of GIS data are included for the following locations: coastal central California, coastal northern California, San Francisco Bay area, central and southern Puget Sound, coastal Oregon, coastal Washington, Hawaii, coastal South Carolina, and the Colorado River basin. These data characterize coastal environments by their sensitivity to spilled oil and include information for shoreline habitats.
