Service Description: There are three main components to the ESI: shoreline habitats, sensitive biological resources, and human-use resources. The shoreline and intertidal areas are ranked based on sensitivity determined by: (1) Shoreline type (substrate, grain size, tidal elevation, origin); (2) Exposure to wave and tidal energy; (3) Biological productivity and sensitivity; and (4) Ease of cleanup. The biology layers focus on threatened/endangered species, areas of high concentration and areas where sensitive life stages may occur. Supporting data tables provide species/location-specific abundance, seasonality, status, life history, and source information Human use resources mapped include managed areas (parks, refuges, critical habitats, etc) and resources that may be impacted by oiling and/or clean-up, such as beaches, archaeological sites marinas etc. ESIs are available for the majority of the US coastline, as well as the US territories. ESI data are available in a variety of GIS formats as well as PDF maps. For more information go to or to download complete ESI data sets go to: http://response.restoration.noaa.gov/esi For information specific to the American Samoa ESI data, go to: http://nosdataexplorer.noaa.gov/NOSDataExplorer/rest/find/document?searchText=samoa%20AND%20esi&start=1&max=100&f=georss&dojo.preventCache=1342446929769. The American Samoa data ESI data were compiled in 2004.
