Description:

Abstract:

Shipping fairways, traffic lanes, and zones delineate activities and regulations for marine vessel traffic. Traffic lanes define specific traffic flow, while traffic separation zones assist opposing streams of marine traffic; anchorage and lightering zones define areas used by vessels for anchoring, transferring cargo, reducing the draft of a vessel, and other maritime operations. Polygon data for all major shipping lanes, fairways and anchorage areas associated with all ports in the Gulf of Mexico. This is U.S. Coast Guard generated data acquired from NOAA. Data are non-projected with coordinates in decimal degrees.

Purpose:

The shipping fairways data is used for reference in maps showing coastal features in the Gulf of Mexico. Because GIS projection and topology functions can change or generalize coordinates, these GIS files are considered to be approximate and are NOT an OFFICIAL record.

Supplemental_Information:

Cadastre data is available at http://www.boem.gov/Oil-and-Gas-Energy-Program/Mapping-and-Data/Index.aspx. These data include Official Protraction Diagrams (OPDs), and Supplemental Official OCS Block Diagrams (SOBDs) in pdf format, and digital spatial data in ArcGIS shapefile format.
