Introduction ...................................................................................................................... 1-1 1. Introduction 1.1 What is a Shapefile? A shapefile is a geospatial data format for use in geographic information system (GIS) software. Shapefiles spatially describe vector data such as points, lines, and polygons, representing, for instance, landmarks, roads, and lakes. The Environmental Systems Research Institute (Esri) created the format for use in their software, but the shapefile format works in additional Geographic Information System (GIS) software as well. 1.2 What are TIGER/Line Shapefiles? The TIGER/Line Shapefiles are the fully supported, core geographic product from the U.S. Census Bureau. They are extracts of selected geographic and cartographic information from the U.S. -

With consistent efforts of transportation engineers, Federal, State and local government officials, both fatalities and fatality rates from road traffic crashes in the United States have steadily declined from 2006 to 2011.Nevertheless, fatalities from traffic crashes slightly increased in 2012 (NHTSA, 2013). -

GEOGRAPHIC AREAS COVERED IN THE ACS For reporting purposes, the U.S. Census Bureau divides Geographic areas are organized in a hierarchy (see the nation into two main types of geographic areas, Figure 1.1). Larger units, such as states, include smaller legal and statistical. Legal areas are defined specifi- units such as counties and census tracts. This structure cally by law, and include state, local, and tribal govern- is derived from the legal, administrative, or areal rela- ment units, and some specially defined administrative tionships of the entities.

Necker Island Reserve Preservation Area
Necker Island Reserve Preservation Area MAP The reserve preservation area in this section is approximated using fathoms (fm) but shall be represented in future maps by the Secretary using straight- line boundaries in longitude and latitude coordinates to clearly encompass the reserve preservation area and to provide clarity and ease of identification. RESERVE PRESERVATION AREA The Reserve Preservation Area for Necker Island includes the waters and submerged lands from the seaward boundary of Hawaii state waters out to a mean depth of 100 fathoms, provided that commercial bottomfishing and trolling for pelagic species by recreational fishers and commercial bottomfishers shall be allowed to continue seaward of a mean depth of 25 fathoms, unless and until the Secretary determines otherwise after adequate public review and comment. ENVIRONMENT Necker Island is a hook-shaped dry volcanic island that includes about 45 acres of land. More than 380,000 acres of coral reef habitat are associated with the island. With regard to reef and coral development, Necker Island resembles Nihoa Island in several respects. Necker is a small island unable to buffer the impacts of strong waves that can break along the submerged shorelines from any direction. The effects of scour (surge combined with sand and other sediments) Northwestern Hawaiian Islands Hawaiian Northwestern is evident from the wave-cut bench in West Cove and the deeply cut sand channels and chasms at several locations in deeper water. The concentration of living corals on elevated surfaces is a manifestation of corals surviving better in less scour-prone environments. Although Necker is smaller than Nihoa, deeper coral reef shelf habitat surrounding Necker is more extensive. -
Is the World's Economic Center of Gravity Already in Asia?∗
Is the World’s Economic Center of Gravity Already in Asia?∗ Jean-Marie Grether†and Nicole A. Mathys‡ November, 2006 Abstract This paper proposes a simple measure of the World’s Economic Center of Gravity (WECG) based on national GDP figures and the geographical location of the world’s most important cities. This measure makes it pos- sible to characterize the location of economic activity around the globe. It turns out that, over the 1975-2004 period, the WECG has shifted to- wards Asia, and the location of economic activity has become more evenly spread. On average, the distance to the WECG, which is highly corre- lated with the remoteness indicator frequently used in the trade gravity literature, has decreased more in Asian cities (-12%) and increased more in European cities (+16%). JEL Classification numbers: F01 Key Words: Geographical location of economic activity, center of grav- ity, spatial imbalances ∗We thank Olivier Cadot, Céline Carrère, Jaime de Melo, João Vieira-Montez, Stefano Puddu and particularly Marius Brülhart for very useful comments.

In particular, many would agree with the assertion of French (2005) that the growth performance of China and India has pulled ”the globe’s economic center of gravity decidedly towards Asia”. -
