Description:

 

Abstract:

 

This data set contains the Preliminary Federal Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) Administrative Boundaries Extending from the Submerged Lands Act Boundary seaward to the Limit of the United States Outer Continental Shelf (The U.S. 200 nautical mile Limit, or other marine boundary), in ESRI shape file format, for the BOEMRE Pacific Region. The precise coordinates in this file are preliminary, pending final review. These shapefiles have been densified to approximately 1 nautical mile, so that when projected to something other than geographic, the lines will retain the proper shape. Because GIS files can be altered slightly by topology building commands, these GIS shape files do not represent the precise legal definition for these boundaries. The official legal definitions for all Block & Boundary cadastral data are represented by the Official Protraction Diagrams(OPDs) and Supplemental Official OCS Block Diagrams (SOBDs).

Purpose:

 

These boundaries will provide the basis for more accurate delineation of OCS planning areas; assist in determining affected state status under the Coastal Zone Management Act and OCS Lands Act; and assist in the section 18 comparative analysis to determine an equitable sharing of developmental benefits and environmental risks among regions. For further information please see the Federal Register Notice from January 3, 2006. See <http://edocket.access.gpo.gov/2006/pdf/05-24659.pdf>

 

Supplemental_Information:

 

The BOEMRE is making its existing cadastre data available at <http://www.BOEMRE.gov/ld/Maps.htm>. These data include digital images of BOEMRE diagrams at the regional, planning area, Official Protraction Diagram (OPD), and Supplemental Official OCS Block Diagram (SOBD) levels and digital spatial data in Arc/Info export or Arc/View shape format at the regional or planning area levels. OPDs & SOBDs for Federal OCS Administrative Boundaries have not yet been created.

Data_Quality_Information:

Logical_Consistency_Report:

These are preliminary data and no tests or reviews for logical consistency have been completed.

Completeness_Report:

All Pacific Region Federal OCS Administrative Boundaries are included. They have been clipped at the approximate SLA boundary and U.S. 200 NM Limits.

Positional_Accuracy:

Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy:

Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report:

Coordinates for points forming the Federal OCS Administrative Boundaries were calculated in CARIS to 0.001 meter resolution. Note however that these are geodetic lines. They have been densified as geodesics in CARIS to add a vertex every 1 nautical mile, in order to preserve the proper shape between turning points (when/if they are projected to some other projection).

Baseline points from which the Federal OCS Administrative Boundaries were projected.

Process_Step:

Process_Description:

The National Baseline points were obtained from NOAA via MOU. Although the National Baseline is unpublished, the marine boundaries and informtion which describe NOAA's National Baseline processes are available from www.ccjdc.org/events/workshops/shows/Tidal_Datum_Web/
Monterey/westington.pps  and <http://www.nauticalcharts.noaa.gov/csdl/mbound.htm>. The National Baseline file was reformatted as required for input into the CARIS Limits and Boundaries Program. In some areas, additional baseline points landward of selected Bay, Harbor, or River Closing Lines, were digitized as needed and added to the baseline in CARIS. Equidistant lines were then projected by CARIS using the EQUIDISTANT LINE tool, and densified with the LINE TO GEODESIC tool. Shapefiles were than exported from CARIS.
