Abstract:

This dataset is a compilation of shape files that show aerial extents of surface oil derived from RADAR and optical satellite imagery. Data were collected to detail characteristics of the oil patch (water constituents and floating oil) associated with the Taylor Energy continuous oil leakage site. Data were collected between 2010 and 2012.

Purpose:

To survey the detailed characteristics of the oil patch (water constituents and floating oil) associated with the Taylor Energy continuous oil leakage site.

Data Parameters and Units:

Area of the Oil Spill (measured on Km2) corresponds to F_AREA in all the shape files.
