- Description:
-
- Abstract:
-
The British Columbia Marine Conservation Analysis (BCMCA) is a collaborative project assembling and analyzing spatial information about Canada's Pacific Ocean. The overall goal of the BCMCA is to identify marine areas of high conservation value and marine areas important to human use. Results of the project are intended to inform and help advance marine planning initiatives in BC by providing collaborative, peer-reviewed scientific analyses based on the best ecological and socio-economic spatial data at scales relevant to a BC coast-wide analysis.
- Purpose:
-
The purpose of this dataset is to display the UNCLOS baseline, 12 Mile Territorial Sea, and 24 Mile Contiguous Zone as defined by the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS).

UNCLOS base line shapefile used in the creation of this data set was supplied by Kevin DesRoches, Natural Resources Canada (NRCan). Received from NRCan as a CARIS macro. Converted to ArcView shapefile by Pete Wills, IOS, CHS. Dataset: "UNCLOS_Baseline.shp". Extent: Canadian Coastal areas.

12 mile territorial limit polyline obtained from Johnny Voong, Canadian Coast Guar (CCG). No information is available related to the provenance of the file. The coordinate system is geographic and the horizontal datum is assumed to be WGS84. Dataset name: "Sea_line.shp". Extent: BC coast
- Process_Step:
-
- Process_Description:
-
The UNCLOS baseline and territorial sea polyline files were copied into a file GDB and renamed. The BC portion of the UNCLOS baseline was buffered (24 nautical miles) to generate the "Contiguous_Limit_24_Mile" file.
