The Navigation Data Center had several objectives in developing the U.S. Waterway Data. These objectives support the concept of a National Spatial Data Provide public access to national waterway data. Foster interagency and intra-agency cooperation through data sharing. Provide a mechanism to integrate waterway data (U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Port/Facility and U.S. Coast Guard Accident Data, for example) Provide a basis for intermodal analysis. Assist standardization of waterway entity definitions (Ports/Facilities, Locks, etc.). Provide public access to the National Waterway Network, which can be used as a basemap to support graphical overlays and analysis with other spatial data (waterway and modal network/facility databases, for example). Provide reliable data to support future waterway and intermodal applications. The water ports layer provides locational information and related attributes for use in the Arkansas Economic Development project. It is one of many geospatial variables compiled from FGDC Framework Geodata designed to assist economic developers in Arkansas. This twelve month project was funded by the Federal Geographic Data Committee (FGDC). The goal of this project is to demonstrate the usefulness of Framework Geodata in supporting economic development decisions within the Mississippi delta region of Arkansas. |

Data available online through the Arkansas Spatial Data Infrastructure (ASDI) at http://gis.arkansas.gov. The subject file contains physical information on commercial facilities at the principal U.S. Coastal, Great Lakes and Inland Ports. The data is from the US Army Corps of Engineers. The data consists of listings of port area's waterfront facilities, including information on berthing, cranes, transit sheds, grain elevators, marine repair plants, fleeting areas, and docking and storage facilities. Collection of data is performed on a rotational basis to ensure on-site accuracy at each facility. |
