Topographic map, Manhattan, New York, N.Y., 1845 (Raster Image) (Image 2 of 3)

This layer is a georeferenced raster image of the historic paper map entitled: Topographical map of the city and county of New-York and the adjacent country : with views in the border of the principal buildings and interesting scenery of the island, engraved & printed by S. Stiles & Co. It was published by Sherman & Smith in 1845. Scale [ca. 1:16,000]. Covers Manhattan and adjacent portions of Brooklyn and New Jersey. This layer is image 2 of 3 total images of the three sheet source map, representing the middle portion of the map. The image inside the map neatline is georeferenced to the surface of the earth and fit to the Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) Zone 18N NAD83 projection. All map collar and inset information is also available as part of the raster image, including any inset maps, profiles, statistical tables, directories, text, illustrations, index maps, legends, or other information associated with the principal map. This map shows features such as topography, ground cover, roads, drainage, selected public buildings, forts, city wards, squares, parks, and more. Relief is shown by hachures. Includes inset views: Broadway from the park -- Nieuw Amsterdam, 1659. This layer is part of a selection of digitally scanned and georeferenced historic maps from The Harvard Map Collection as part of the Imaging the Urban Environment project. Maps selected for this project represent major urban areas and cities of the world, at various time periods. These maps typically portray both natural and manmade features at a large scale. The selection represents a range of regions, originators, ground condition dates, scales, and purposes.

Proposta metodológica de inclusão da gestão de análises de riscos naturais no zoneamento ecológico e econômico

A região da Calha Norte, localizada no Baixo Amazonas do Estado do Pará, sofre historicamente com vários tipos de ameaças naturais, como cheias, enchentes, alagamentos, erosão, estiagem, enxurrada, fortes chuvas e secas, todas registradas pela Defesa Civil. Todos os anos, seja no período da chuva ou no período da seca, a população fica vulnerável a tais eventos. A presente dissertação consiste em adaptar uma iniciativa metodológica que permita a incorporação da temática de gestão de riscos naturais no Zoneamento Ecológico Econômico (ZEE) do Brasil, tendo como estudo de caso o ZEE da Calha Norte do Pará, proporcionando instrumentos para a gestão e melhorias das ações do poder público. A análise das ameaças naturais baseou-se em estudo metodológico que agregou dados históricos, mapa geomorfológico, mapa geológico, mapa hipsométrico, mapa de declividade, identificando as três classes de análises: (i) área de alta suscetibilidade; (ii) área de moderada suscetibilidade e (iii) área de baixa suscetibilidade, gerando assim os mapas das ameaças de inundação, de erosões e das secas. A construção da vulnerabilidade social ocorreu a partir da aplicação do Índice de Vulnerabilidade Social (IVS) e do Índice de Unidades de Resposta (IUR), oriundos dos dados do Censo 2010 e do Cadastro Nacional de Endereço para Fins Estatísticos (CNEFE), ambos do IBGE. Após a aplicação de tais índices verificou-se que, do total de 397 setores censitários da área de estudo, 365 setores apresentam alta vulnerabilidade e os demais, moderada e baixa vulnerabilidade, o que retrata grande preocupação com tal área. Na análise de risco, os dados de vulnerabilidade e ameaças foram integrados e novamente classificados em três níveis: (i) alto risco, onde há pouca concentração de unidades de respostas e são áreas de alta ameaça, podendo provocar danos sociais e econômicos quando e se ocorrerem as ameaças naturais; (ii) médio nível de risco, resultado gerado do cruzamento de áreas de altas ameaças x baixas ameaças e (iii) baixo nível de risco, resultando em dois produtos cartográficos: o mapa de risco de inundação e o mapa de risco de erosão. O ZEE da Calha Norte do Pará foi analisado com alguns questionamentos a fim de verificar a inclusão da temática de ameaça, vulnerabilidade e risco no documento, concluindo-se pela falta desta no documento técnico. Além disto, os resultados obtidos com a pesquisa são de elevada importância no sentido de subsidiar o ordenamento territorial e também para a criação de políticas públicas para a região.
