description: This is a legacy on-premise service that exists solely to support a single application requiring map services vs hosted feature services. External users are encouraged to utilize the ArcGIS Online Hosted Feature Services providing these same layers, which can be found on the MaineDMR Open Data Site, http://dmr-maine.opendata.arcgis.com/ Marine Worms 2005 - Data based on interviews with commercial marine bait worm harvesters and site visits carried out between October 2004 and May 2005. Information was compiled on a 1:24000 base and screen digitized from original paper documents. Areas represented are known harvest locations and those areas that historically have sustained significant populations of the two annelid worm species, Nereis virens (sand worm) and Glycera dibranchiata (blood worm). The habitat delineated is primarily mixed and fine grained sediment which can be categorized as predominantly intertidal mud flats. Site specific studies associated with this mapping are documented in Atherton, Chen, and Thayer, unpublished.Thomas Atherton, Yong Chen, and Peter Thayer, unpublished . “A Comprehensive Study of Maine's Baitworm Industry". Submitted in 2005 to Maine Department of Marine Resources in fulfillment of contract #804291. Marine Worms 1970's provides a generalized representation at 1:24,000 scale of commercially harvested marine worm habitat in Maine, based on Maine Department of Marine Resources data from 1970's. Original maps were created by MaineDMR and published by USF&WS as part of the "Ecological Characteristics of Coastal Maine".
