Hi Joe,
We've developed a couple of web-based tools that summarize data by
political jurisdictions and present the information in dynamic maps and
charts. The tools and their underlying data are all hosted in NOAA's Digital
Coast <http://csc.noaa.gov/digitalcoast/>.
The Coastal-Change Analysis Program
<http://csc.noaa.gov/digitalcoast/data/ccapregional> (C-CAP) Land Cover
Atlas <http://csc.noaa.gov/digitalcoast/tools/lca> reports a variety of
land cover and change metrics by county. This will soon be updated to also
summarize by HUC-8 watersheds and will include the new 2010 land cover
data. We're also going to release a county comparison tool so that land
cover metrics can more easily be compared between and among counties.
We also steward the "Economics: National Ocean Watch
<http://csc.noaa.gov/digitalcoast/data/enow>" (ENOW) data and have
developed a couple of tools that allow users to visualize the
multi-sectoral data by various geographies. The Coastal County Snapshots
<http://csc.noaa.gov/digitalcoast/tools/snapshots>tool provides basic flood
risk, ocean-related economics, and wetlands information for a given county
and generates a downloadable report. The ENOW Explorer
<http://csc.noaa.gov/digitalcoast/tools/enow>is a more robust data
extraction, visualization, and comparison tool that allows users to view
the various ENOW metrics by county, state, or region.
As always, feel free to ping me with any questions.
Best,
Jamie
