26262 NEFSC Statistical Areas Data Set Published / External 24234 Data Management Systems (DMS) Project Completed Statistical areas for the offshore eastern USA as determined by NOAA's NMFS for use in reporting and scientific research Completed to provide an accurate digital representation of the statistical areas All points used to create this layer was done with the help of NAFO members and regulations. The EEZ line, used as the border of several polygons, was digitized per the 1984 court case which determined the exact line to be used. Any and all inqueries concerning this data should be brought to David F. Chevrier.
