Resource Abstract:
- description: <p>TOXMAP is a Geographic Information System (GIS) that uses maps of the United States and Canada to help
users visually explore data primarily from the EPA's Toxics Release Inventory (TRI) and Superfund Program, as well as
some non-EPA datasets. TOXMAP helps users create nationwide, regional, or local area maps showing where TRI chemicals are
released on-site into the air, water, and ground. It also provides facility and release details, color-codes release amounts
for a single year or year range, and aggregates release data over multiple years. Maps also show locations of Superfund National
Priorities List (NPL) sites, listing all chemical contaminants present at these sites. Two versions of TOXMAP are available:
the classic version of TOXMAP released in 2004, and a new version of TOXMAP based on Adobe Flash/Flex technology. The new
version provides an improved map appearance and interactive capabilities and additional datasets such as EPA coal plant emissions
data and U.S. commercial nuclear power plants.</p>; abstract: <p>TOXMAP is a Geographic Information System (GIS)
