This data provides monthly average and annual average daily total solar resource averaged over surface cells of 0.1 degrees in both latitude and longitude, or about 10 km in size, filtered to slopes less than 1%. This data was developed using the State University of New York/Albany satellite radiation model. This model was developed by Dr. Richard Perez and collaborators at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory and other universities for the U.S. Department of Energy. Specific information about this model can be found in Perez, et al. (2002). This model uses hourly radiance images from geostationary weather satellites, daily snow cover data, and monthly averages of atmospheric water vapor, trace gases, and the...
Proposed and existing solar and wind project site data which was constructed in GIS at the California State BLM Office, using hardcopy legal information and/or maps obtained from the various field offices in California. The hardcopy information to backup the legal boundaries shown in GIS are stored at the California BLM State Office.
Powerlines in the western United States and Canada as identified by the 22 source data layers used to compile this shapefile. Source data were collected by personal contact or through the internet in the winter and spring of 2004 and assimilated using ArcGIS. This file is a complete record of overhead powerline data that was avaliable as of 5/15/2004 but IS NOT INTENDED TO BE A COMPLETE REPRESENTATION OF THE SUM TOTAL OF ALL POWERLINES ON THE GROUND. These data primarily depict the higher voltage, long distance transmission lines but some arcs likely represent lower voltage distribution lines.
Average electrical generation of coal, gas turbine, utility hydroelectric, wind, and diesel sites in Alaska.
Each community in the study area is served by an isolated grid, with its own generation and distribution infrastructure. All energy infrastructure in each community is within the community’s footprint. Barrow and Prudhoe Bay, the two largest population centers, rely completely on natural gas for generation of electricity. Nuiqsut relies both on natural gas and diesel. Other than Barrow and Prudhoe Bay, all other communities have small demand loads, and thus only generate less than a megawatt.
This dataset is based on proprietary data from and copyrighted to MapMakers Alaska. It is a reprojected and clipped version of the original MapMakers Alaska data. It depicts the spatial extent of pipelines on the North Slope. The original dataset was created by MapMakers Alaska. It was then purchased from the state by the North Slope Borough in January 2008. We then obtained the data from the North Slope Borough. Alaska Natural Heritage Program obtained the data from North Slope Borough, reprojected it, and clipped it to the North Slope study area.

Some of the CYR rasters intentionally do not align or have the same extent. These rasters were not snapped to a common raster per the authors' discretion. Please review selected rasters prior to use. These varying alignments are a result of the use of differing source data sets and all products derived from them. We recommend that users snap or align rasters as best suits their own projects. - Alaska has abundant wind resources available for energy development. Increased costs associated with fossil fue-based generation and improbments in wind power technology make this clean, renewable energy resources attractive to many communities. The quality of a wind resource is key to determining the feasibility of a project...

This EnviroAtlas web service supports research and online mapping activities related to EnviroAtlas (https://www.epa.gov/enviroatlas). The Biodiversity Conservation category in this web service includes layers illustrating the ecosystems and natural resources that support biodiversity, the need or demand for conservation, the impacts associated with biodiversity and conservation, and factors that place stress on the natural environment's capability to maintain biodiversity. EnviroAtlas allows the user to interact with a web-based, easy-to-use, mapping application to view and analyze multiple ecosystem services for the conterminous United States. Additional descriptive information about each attribute in this web...
Powerlines in the western United States. Data was obtained from the ICEBMP existing utility corridors data set.
The BLM is currently processing 23 renewable energy projects (14 solar, 6 wind, and 3 geothermal) representing about 5,300 MW.
This dataset is based on proprietary data produced and copyrighted to MapMakers Alaska. The spatial extent of oil facilities originally produced by MapMakers Alaska has been updated and modified through comparison with satellite imagery. This dataset depicts locations of oil facilities on the North Slope. The original data was created by MapMakers Alaska. It was then purchased from the state by the North Slope Borough in January 2008. Alaska Natural Heritage Program obtained the data from the North Slope Borough, reprojected it, and clipped it to the North Slope study area. Quality control was performed by comparing oil facility footprints to satellite imagery (Best Data Layer from Geographic Information Network...

We recommend that users snap or align rasters as best suits their own projects. - Alaska’s primary biomass fuels are wood, sawmill wastes, fish byproducts, and municipal waste. Wood remains an important renewable energy source for Alaskans, with over 100,000 cords per year used for space heating statewide. Closure of the major pulp mills in Sitka and Ketchikan in the 1990s ended large-scale wood-fired power...
This data depicts the spatial extent of electrical powerlines in the North Slope study area. This dataset is provided by Alaska Department of Natural Resources: Alaska Electrical Lines 1:63,360. The original statewide data was digitized from 1:63,360 and 1:250,000 USGS topographic maps. The source document that represented the newest information and best geographic location was used to capture the data. All infrastructure from the primary source document was digitized and then supplemented with the information from other source documents for additional or updated infrastructure or attributes.
This data depicts telephone line locations in Alaska as digitized primarily from 1:24,000, 1:63,360, and 1:250,000 USGS quadrangles. The source document that represented the newest information and best geographic location was used to capture the data. All infrastructure from the primary source document was digitized and then supplemented with the information from other source documents for additional or updated infrastructure or attributes.
The use of scenarios was identified by the NSSI Oversight Group as a potentially important tool in helping identify future research and monitoring needs. Scenarios can provide a means to identify a plausible range of pathways by which an uncertain future may unfold. In that way, they can then be used to help guide agency considerations for how to effectively target research and monitoring efforts in a manner that will be most useful for resource management decision-making under uncertain future conditions. A collaboration to undertake that scenarios project was formed between NSSI, the University of Alaska Fairbanks, and GeoAdaptive, LLC, an internationally experienced geospatial scenarios consultant. This dataset...
Average electrical generation of coal, gas turbine, utility hydroelectric, wind, and diesel sites in Alaska.
Hydroelectric power, Alaska's largest source of renewable energy, supplies 20% of the state's electricity in an average water year. In 2012, 37 hydro projects provided power to Alaska utility customers. Hydropower can be generated through projects that store energy by impounding water in a reservoir behind a dam, or projects that provide hydro storage without dam construction through the natural impoundment of existing lakes using a "lake tap" near the bottom of the lake that supplies water to a powerhouse. Other projects increase annual energy production by diverting rivers to exisitng hydroelectric storage reservoirs and power plants. These projects allow more efficient use of existing infrastructure. Smaller...
This dataset depicts geothermal wells in Utah derived from the Utah well and spring database (http://geology.utah.gov/emp/geothermal/wells_springs_database.htm). This dataset was obtained in tabular format and converted to GIS format by CBI. No metadata were available. Limited information obtained from the website above.
