Marine Protected Areas Coordinates - R7 - CDFW [ds3207]

Coordinates were extracted from Section 632 of the California Code of Regulations Title 14. For the federal marine protected areas, coordinates were extracted from the applicable Code of Federal Regulations. All geographic coordinates in the subsection with full coordinate pairs (both latitude and longitude) are plotted at the regulatory waypoint, all geographic coordinates in the subsection that have only one coordinate (latitude or longitude) are plotted somewhere on the line in the vicinity of that boundary, all subsections that do not have coordinates included are plotted at the geographic centroid of the MPA feature. Coordinates for complimentary Federal/State MPAs were combined for visualization.
