There are thousands of ocean observing tools in use every day-satellites in orbit, gliders, buoys, high-frequency radar, sharks with satellite tags, sensors on the ocean floor, and more operated by different organizations and researchers. IOOS, a national-regional partnership, gathers and integrates many of those data streams and makes those observations compatible and accessible by science, industry, government, and citizens. RAs design regional coastal observing systems to meet the unique needs of the regional environment and stakeholders. The eleven IOOS RAs maintain and operate regional coastal observing systems and develop information products for their users. The RAs provide increased observations, distinctive knowledge, and critical technological abilities, and apply these towards the development of products to meet regional and local needs To support ocean planning activities pursuant to the Executive Order Regarding the Ocean Policy to Advance the Economic, Security, and Environmental Interests of the United States, the Energy Policy Act, the National Environmental Policy Act, the Rivers and Harbors Act, the Coastal Zone Management Act, and the Integrated Coastal and Ocean Observation System Act of 2009.

Other sources such as the NOAA ENC were used to patch gaps in the CUSP. 3) Generally, shorelines are truncated at the first or second major obstruction (bridge, dam, waterfall) going from offshore to onshore. 4) Coastal ponds, lagoons and other water bodies not directly connected to the coastal ocean are not present. 5) The upland termination point for the offshore lateral boundaries were adjusted to be coincident with well established aids to navigation when they were present and appeared to be the intended boundary marker. Conceptual Consistency These data are logically consistent Collect source data from publicly available web sites. IMPORT source data and standardize the coordinate reference system and feature type. Evaluate source data for overall quality and completeness. Discard outdated, flawed, or superseded source data. Use the ArcGIS Pro graphical user interface to edit features. Remove extraneous geometry, MERGE and snap geometry together, edge match and blend adjoining features, remove dangles, and convert to polygon type. SELECT and EXPORT to a new feature class all coastal, ocean, and Great Lakes water features. Acquire and enter attributes for each logical region. Execute the CHECK GEOMETRY function to evaluate for valid feature types. Execute the RECALCULATE FEATURE CLASS EXTENT function. Execute the ADD SPATIAL INDEX function. 2023-10-23T00:00:00 2021 Census - Boundary files 2021-01-01 publication Statistics Canada https://www12.statcan.gc.ca/census-recensement/2021/geo/sip-pis/index-eng.cfm WWW:LINK-1.0-http--link Source Citation URL Source Citation URL information originator Source Contribution: Public Law 111-11 Subtitle C Integrated Coastal and Ocean Observing System Act of 2009 33 USC 3601 2009-03-30 publication 111th Congress https://www.congress.gov/111/plaws/publ11/PLAW-111publ11.pdf WWW:LINK-1.0-http--link Source Citation URL Source Citation URL information originator Source Contribution: https://www.vims.edu/ccrm/advisory/ccrmp/portals/accomack/index.php https://www.vims.edu/ccrm/advisory/ccrmp/portals/northampton/index.php Accomack and Northampton County Shoreline and Tidal Marsh Inventory GIS Data - 2016 Virginia Institute of Marine Science https://www.vims.edu/ccrm/advisory/ccrmp/portals/index.php WWW:LINK-1.0-http--link Source Citation URL Source Citation URL information originator Alaska Coastline 1:250,000 2023-08-15 publication Alaska State Geospatial Clearinghouse https://data-soa-dnr.opendata.arcgis.com/ WWW:LINK-1.0-http--link Source Citation URL Source Citation URL information publisher Federated States of Micronesia Exclusive Economic Zone (200 Nautical Miles) 2022-03-11 publication FSM National Oceanic Resource Management Authority (NORMA) https://pacificdata.org/data/dataset/federated-states-of-micronesia-exclusive-economic-zone-200-nautical-miles WWW:LINK-1.0-http--link Source Citation URL Source Citation URL information publisher Source Contribution: RABoundariesShapefile.zip ra_region_boundaries.geojson IOOS Regional Association Boundaries 2023-06-21 publication U.S. IOOS Office https://ioos.noaa.gov/ WWW:LINK-1.0-http--link Source Citation URL Source Citation URL information originator Source Contribution: https://shoreline.noaa.gov/data/datasheets/cusp.html https://www.fisheries.noaa.gov/inport/item/60812 Extracted on 2023-07-24 NOAA Continually Updated Shoreline Product (CUSP) NOAA National Geodetic Survey https://nsde.ngs.noaa.gov/ WWW:LINK-1.0-http--link Source Citation URL Source Citation URL information originator Source Contribution: NaturalFeaturesA\Harbor_Land_Area NaturalFeaturesA\Approach_Land_Area Used to patch gaps in the following areas 1) Pacific Islands 2) Gulf of Mexico 3) Southeast 4) Northeast NOAA Electronic Navigational Charts NOAA Office of Coast Survey https://nauticalcharts.noaa.gov/charts/noaa-enc.html WWW:LINK-1.0-http--link Source Citation URL Source Citation URL information originator Palau Exclusive Economic Zone (200 Nautical Miles) 2021-07-30 publication Palau Bureau of Lands & Surveys https://pacificdata.org/data/dataset/palau-exclusive-economic-zone-200-nautical-miles WWW:LINK-1.0-http--link Source Citation URL Source Citation URL information originator Republic of Marshall Islands Exclusive Economic Zone (200 Nautical Miles) 2021-07-28 publication Marshall Islands Marine Resources Authority (MIMRA) https://pacificdata.org/data/dataset/republic-of-marshall-islands-exclusive-economic-zone-200-nautical-miles WWW:LINK-1.0-http--link Source Citation URL Source Citation URL information publisher Source Contribution: Definition of Coastal, page 1-3 paragraph 1 See also 1) https://ioos.noaa.gov/about/meet-the-ioos-program-office/ 2) https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/USCODE-2021-title33/pdf/USCODE-2021-title33-chap49-sec3603.pdf U.S. Integrated Ocean Observing System: A Blueprint for Full Capability version 1.0 U.S. IOOS Office https://cdn.ioos.noaa.gov/media/2017/12/us_ioos_blueprint_ver1.pdf WWW:LINK-1.0-http--link Source Citation URL Source Citation URL information originator Source Contribution: https://maritimeboundaries.noaa.gov/downloads/USMaritimeLimitsAndBoundariesSHP.zip https://www.fisheries.noaa.gov/inport/item/39963 U.S. Maritime Limits & Boundaries 2013-09-13 publication NOAA Office of Coast Survey https://nauticalcharts.noaa.gov/data/us-maritime-limits-and-boundaries.html WWW:LINK-1.0-http--link Source Citation URL Source Citation URL information originator
