Description
This data set contains Continental Shelf Boundary (CSB) lines for the BOEM Gulf of Mexico Region. The CSB defines the seaward limit of federally managed OCS lands. The line depicts the limit of U.S. jurisdiction for offshore mineral development. This CSB file only includes the lateral boundaries between the United States and Mexico, or Cuba.
This data was created in the applicable NAD27 UTM/SPCS Projection and re-projected to NAD27 Geographic. Because GIS projection and topology functions can change or generalize coordinates, these GIS files are NOT an OFFICIAL record for the exact boundaries. These files are to be used for Cartographic purposes only.
