Gulf of Maine Project
Data from the previously released CD-ROM (Bauman and others, 1998) has been incorporated into Chapter 7 and contains the Database of Existing Coastal & Marine Protected Areas, Conservation Zones, and Restricted Fishing Areas in the Gulf of Maine. This database is in ArcView shape file and Excel formats. Included in this chapter are coastline shape files, map composition files, metadata file and a summary report (see links below).
MACPA.XLS - Excel spreadsheet
METADATA.DOC - describes the GIS database
REPORT.DOC - report on the methods used to create the database and conclusions/recommendations
SITES.XLS- list of the sites included in the database
