Marine Pollution Surveillance Reports in U.S. Exclusive Economic Zone and its approaches from 2011-04-24 to 2025-12-28 (NCEI Accession 0292122)

Published by NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information | National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Department of Commerce | Catalog Last Checked: August 03, 2026 at 04:43 AM | Dataset Last Updated: January 30, 2026 at 12:00 AM
The Marine Pollution Surveillance Report (MPSR) is created manually in near real time by an operational analyst when an anomaly believed to be oil is identified in satellite imagery. Reports include the following information: Image date and time Satellite sensor, spatial resolution, and mode / polarization if applicable Report date and time Estimated surface area of the oil slick Confidence level based on internal criteria and practical experience Remarks and uncertainties Derived map products in JPEG format GIS files
