Summary

This dataset is the depiction of California maritime limits, or the 3 nautical mile boundary of state territorial waters. These limits were constructed from baseline points that represent the most seaward, drying features at mean lower low water on NOAA's produced paper nautical charts of the area. These digital boundaries do NOT represent the legal depiction of maritime limits.

Description

This line was generated from NOAA's 3 nautical mile offshore maritime limit line clipped to California state waters. NOAA's Office of Coast Survey (OCS) has been responsible for generating the 3 Nautical Mile Line used as the state water maritime limit used on official paper charts and raster navigational charts (RNC).

This line is primarily used for cartographic purposes. A polygon version of this feature will be downloaded in tandem with the line and is recommended for any area calculations or analysis. The approximate mean high tide line was generated through study region delineation conducted during the planning phase of implementing the Marine Life Protection Act.

Attributes:

  • LIMIT: Name of the maritime limit.

  • STATE: State of maritime limit depicted.

  • SRCSCALE: Map scales used to generate limit.

  • SRCDATUM: Datum used to generate limit.
