Outer boundary line of the continental shelf
Description
The outer boundary of the continental shelf extends from the point in the Idefjord, where the property-divided area no longer reaches the agreed boundary with Norway, to a point on the boundary line with Finland at latitude 65° 35 ́N . Around the island Märket in the Åland Sea, the border follows the baselines. The inner boundary of the continental shelf is defined by the (towards the sea) outermost property boundaries. These limits are rarely defined and are therefore not reported on the basis of the new law. There are also areas in some of the large lakes that are not property divided. The following attributes can be found in the point shape file: Serial number - Serial number of continental shelf points (KP). Serial number_KP - Serial number of significant points on the outer boundary line of the continental shelf. Latitude & Longitude - All points along the boundary are described by geographical coordinates in latitude and longitude expressed in the SWEREF 99 reference system in degrees and decimal minutes as stated in the law and in decimal degrees. Point type - The following point types exist: • the cut-off point agreed with another State (KP), with the exception of the points on the island of Märket, for which there is no agreement with another State; • the segmented point on a straight geodetic line or on a rhumb line between two cut-off points (MP); and • the point on the midline of the Sound described with the coordinates that on 27 November 2014 represented the presentation of this demarcation line in the Maritime Administration’s chart database (ML). Point name - Name in cases where this occurs (applies to agreed points on a national border). Source - Act (2017:1272) on Sweden's territorial waters and maritime zones. Unique ID – A unique ID added by the Swedish Maritime Administration. The following attributes are in the line shape file: Source - Act (2017:1272) on Sweden's territorial waters and maritime zones.
