Edgartown_Conservation_Commission_Ponds_Resource_Area (FeatureServer)

View In:   Map Viewer

Service Description: This dataset is a visual representation of the pond resource area described in the Wetlands Protection By-law (1985 - revised 1991) Section 1 item 5. The 'resource area' is a combination of specific named ponds and the streams and wetlands (including beach & dune) that are adjacent to &/or draining into the named ponds. This resource area and regulations are intended to provided extra protection to the south shore of Edgartown. The Martha's Vineyard Commission compiled the resource area from MassDEP hydrography and wetlands datasets which were then dissolved together into one dataset. The dissolved dataset was buffered 300ft to create the buffer zone.

Description:

Source datasets: MassDEP Hydrography 1:25K Ponds & Streams https://www.mass.gov/info-details/massgis-data-massdep-hydrography-125000 (last updated 2019); MassDEP Wetlands (2005) publ 2017: https://www.mass.gov/info-details/massgis-data-massdep-wetlands-2005

All geoprocessing work was performed in ArcPro by the Martha's Vineyard Commission. 300ft buffer applied to the compiled resource area (ponds & wetlands).

The stream area within the resource area had already been buffered 1ft to convert the arc topology to a polygon (for inclusion in the polygon resource area dataset). Therefore, the stream resource area was buffered an additional 299ft. That 299ft stream buffer was merged into the larger 300ft resource area buffer.
