<DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><DIV><P><SPAN>Shoreline Situation Reports (SSR) were first generated by VIMS in the 1970's to report the condition and status of the shore lands. The SSR series were published in hardcopy on a county by county basis for each Tidewater Virginia localities. The reports were intended to assist planners, managers, and regulators in decisions pertaining to management of coastal areas and natural resources therein. This Shoreline Inventory report continues a process which updates and expands the earlier reports. Data collected reports conditions surveyed in the immediate riparian zone, the bank, and along the shoreline. This dataset is the result of combining the most recent digital shoreline inventories for Virginia.</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>Shoreline is digitized using the most current imagery collected at the time of the locality shoreline inventory. Prior to 2015, shoreline was digitized along the water interface. Beginning in 2015, shoreline is delineated along the edge of the upland where it iterfaces with other habitats such as marsh or open water.</SPAN></P></DIV></DIV></DIV> |
