Resource Abstract:
- description: This EnviroAtlas dataset presents environmental benefits of the urban forest in 146 block groups in Portland,
Maine. Carbon attributes, temperature reduction, pollution removal and value, and runoff effects are calculated for each block
group using i-Tree models (www.itreetools.org), local weather data, pollution data, EPA provided city boundary and land cover
data, and U.S. Census derived block group boundary data. This dataset was produced by the US Forest Service to support research
and online mapping activities related to EnviroAtlas. EnviroAtlas (https://www.epa.gov/enviroatlas) allows the user to interact
with a web-based, easy-to-use, mapping application to view and analyze multiple ecosystem services for the contiguous United
States. The dataset is available as downloadable data (https://edg.epa.gov/data/Public/ORD/EnviroAtlas) or as an EnviroAtlas
map service. Additional descriptive information about each attribute in this dataset can be found in its associated EnviroAtlas
Fact Sheet (https://www.epa.gov/enviroatlas/enviroatlas-fact-sheets).; abstract: This EnviroAtlas dataset presents environmental
