- Title:
- MiEJScreen Draft Data [Michigan]
- Description:
- MiEJScreenis an interactive mapping tool that identifies Michigan communities that may be disproportionately impacted by environmental hazards. The map allows users to explore the environmental, health, and socioeconomic conditions within a specific community, region, or across the entire state. This is the main dataset behind the draft web app. Note that this app and data are currently labeled "DRAFT" as we are collecting public comments about them. See below for information on how to submit your own comments. These data sets can be viewed individually or combined into a final MiEJScreen score that allows users to understand how communities experience environmental justice impacts relative to others. These results are depicted in the form of maps so that different communities can be compared to one another. A census tract with a high score is one that experiences higher pollution burden and vulnerability than census tracts with low scores. MiEJScreen ranks census tracts based on data that are available from state and federal government sources. The MiEJScreen overall score is made up of two sub scores (Environmental Conditions and Population Characteristics) which are further divided into four categories. There are two categories representing Environmental Conditions: Exposures and Environmental Effects, and two categories representing Population Characteristics: Sensitive Populations and Socioeconomic Factors. Each of the categories has a set of indicators that are scored for each census tract by its raw value, then assigned percentiles based on rank-order. Those percentile scores are averaged for each of the four categories (Exposures, Environmental Effects, Sensitive Populations, and Socioeconomic Factors). This feature layer consists of the MiEJScreen overall score, 2 sub scores, 4 categories and 26 MiEJScreen indicators. See below for the specific scores, categories, and indicators.
