From the site: "[L]inks to the digital coal resource shapefiles available from the ISGS Coal Section. The listed shapefiles are the same ones that were used to construct the County Coal Map Series maps and State Coal maps. These digital files have been reviewed and edited and meet the standards of the Illinois State Geological Survey with regard to scientific and technical quality and are suited to the purpose and the use intended by the ISGS Coal Section. They present reasonable interpretations of the geology of the area and are based on available data. However, the interpretations are based on data that may vary with respect to accuracy of geographic location, the type and quantity of data available at each location, and the reliability of the data sources. Consequently, the accuracy of unit boundaries and other features shown in these files varies from place to place. This data set provides a large-scale conceptual model of the geology of the area on which to base further work. Any map or cross section included herein is not intended for use in site-specific screening or decision-making. Use of this document does not eliminate the need for detailed studies to fully understand the geology of a specific site.

From the site: "A cells polygon feature class was created by the U. S. Geological Survey (USGS) to illustrate the degree of exploration, type of production, and distribution of production in the State of Illinois. Each cell represents a quarter-mile square of the land surface, and the cells are coded to represent whether the wells included within the cell are predominantly oil-producing, gas-producing, both oil and gas-producing, or the type of production of the wells located within the cell is unknown or dry. Data were retrieved from the Illinois State Geological Survey (ISGS) oil and gas wells database. Cells were developed as a graphic solution to overcome the problem of displaying proprietary well data. No proprietary data are displayed or included in the cell maps. The data are current as of 2006."

From the site: "Increasingly, hydrologic studies require information on the isotopic composition of natural waters.

This dataset represents the impervious surface coefficients within individual local and accumulated upstream catchments for NHDPlusV2 Waterbodies based on the National Land Cover Data. Catchment boundaries in LakeCat are defined in one of two ways, on-network or off-network. The on-network catchment boundaries follow the catchments provided in the NHDPlusV2 and the metrics for these lakes mirror metrics from StreamCat, but will substitute the COMID of the NHDWaterbody for that of the NHDFlowline. The off-network catchment framework uses the NHDPlusV2 flow direction rasters to define non-overlapping lake-catchment boundaries and then links them through an off-network flow table. This data set is derived from the NLCD Impervious Surfaces raster(imp2006) which describes percent imperviousness (continuous data type). Values indicate the degree to which the area is composed of impervious anthropogenic materials (e.g., parking surfaces, roads, building roofs). This raster was produced based on a decision-tree classification of circa 2006 Landsat satellite data.

The (site locations / catchment) were summarized and accumulated into watersheds to produce local catchment-level and watershed-level metrics as a points data type.

This dataset represents the characterization of global forest extent and change by year from 2001 through 2013 within individual local and accumulated upstream catchments for NHDPlusV2 Waterbodies based on the Global Forest Change 2000–2013. Catchment boundaries in LakeCat are defined in one of two ways, on-network or off-network. The on-network catchment boundaries follow the catchments provided in the NHDPlusV2 and the metrics for these lakes mirror metrics from StreamCat, but will substitute the COMID of the NHDWaterbody for that of the NHDFlowline. The off-network catchment framework uses the NHDPlusV2 flow direction rasters to define non-overlapping lake-catchment boundaries and then links them through an off-network flow table. These data are based on global tree cover loss for the period from 2001 to 2013 at a spatial resolution of 30m. The analysis used to create the landscape layer is based on Landsat data. Forest loss was defined as a stand-replacement disturbance or the complete removal of tree cover canopy at the Landsat pixel scale. This landscape layer is a disaggregation of total forest loss to annual time scales. Encoded as either 0 (no loss) or else a value in the range 1–13, representing loss detected primarily in the year 2001–2013, respectively. The forest loss by year characteristics (%) were summarized to produce local catchment-level and watershed-level metrics as a continuous data type.

The off-network catchment framework uses the NHDPlusV2 flow direction rasters to define non-overlapping lake-catchment boundaries and then links them through an off-network flow table. For information regarding how the Landscape layers were created see https://www.sciencebase.gov/catalog/item/53481333e4b06f6ce034aae7. Landscape Layers are partitioned into 4 tables based on the location of no-data cells within their rasters to correctly reflect the PctFull attributes within each table.

Individual rasters (Landscape Layers) of organic material (om), permeability (perm), water table depth (wtdep), depth to bedrock (rckdep), percent clay (clay), and percent sand (sand) were used to calculate soil characteristics for each NHDPlusV2 catchment. The soil characteristics were summarized to produce local catchment-level and watershed-level metrics as a continuous data type. The STATSGO data are distributed in two sets, STATSGO_Set1 and STATSGO_Set2, based on common NoData locations in each set of soil GIS layers (see ftp://newftp.epa.gov/EPADataCommons/ORD/NHDPlusLandscapeAttributes/StreamCat/Documentation/ReadMe.html).

This dataset represents the historical fire perimeters within individual local and accumulated upstream catchments for NHDPlusV2 Waterbodies based on the GeoMAC (Geospatial Multi-Agency Coordination) mapping tool. Catchment boundaries in LakeCat are defined in one of two ways, on-network or off-network. The on-network catchment boundaries follow the catchments provided in the NHDPlusV2 and the metrics for these lakes mirror metrics from StreamCat, but will substitute the COMID of the NHDWaterbody for that of the NHDFlowline. The off-network catchment framework uses the NHDPlusV2 flow direction rasters to define non-overlapping lake-catchment boundaries and then links them through an off-network flow table. Fire perimeters contain data as they are submitted by field offices to GeoMAC (Geospatial Multi-Agency Coordination) in a polygon format. Fire perimeter data is based on input from incident intelligence sources, GPS data, infrared (IR) imagery from fixed wing and satellite platforms. Polygons are selected by year and then converted into a binary raster format where values of 1 represent fire perimeters of the given year and 0 describes the remaining areas across the CONUS, leaving No Data to be anything outside the CONUS border. The wildland fire characteristics (% forest loss to fire) were summarized by year to produce local catchment-level and watershed-level metrics as a continuous data type.

This dataset represents the wetness index within individual local NHDPlusV2 catchments and upstream, contributing watersheds based on the Composite Topographic Index (See Supplementary Info for Glossary of Terms). The Composite Topographic Index (CTI) is based on contributing area, slope, and overland flow and has been developed internally at the EPA for the EnviroAtls (http://edg.epa.gov/data/Public/ORD/EnviroAtlas/National/). As defined for use in EnviroAtlas datasets and as used here, “wet areas are typically created by runoff from natural land cover when rain falls on saturated soil. Surface and rill (or small channel) runoff carries excess water to lowland depressions or wet areas. Runoff collects in wet areas until they fill and overflow downstream. In this way, stream networks can be extended into new areas that would not be hydrologically connected during drier times. Wet area expansion and watershed hydrological connectivity differ between humid temperate and semi-arid and arid climates (where drought and soil crusts limit infiltration and produce flashier runoff)” (from https://enviroatlas.epa.gov/enviroatlas/datafactsheets/pdf/ESN/PercentForestonWetAreas.pdf). The Mean Composite Topographic Index (CTI)[Wetness Index] were summarized to produce local catchment-level and watershed-level metrics as a continuous data type.
