Description: These data contain a national scale spatial footprint of the outer boundaries of the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management’s (BOEM’s) Official Protraction Diagrams (OPDs). These polygons are clipped to the Submerged Land Act Boundary and Continental Shelf Boundaries and are updated as needed. OPDs are mapping products produced and used by the BOEM to delineate areas available for potential offshore mineral leases, determine the State/Federal offshore boundaries, and determine the limits of revenue sharing and other boundaries to be considered when leasing offshore waters. The OPDs serve as the legal definition for BOEM offshore boundary coordinates and area descriptions. These data show only the outline of the maps that are available from BOEM. Only the most recently published paper or pdf versions of the OPDs should be used for official or legal purposes. Further information on the history of the development of OPDs can be found in OCS Report MMS 99-0006: Boundary Development on the Outer Continental Shelf.These data were created in the applicable NAD83 UTM or NAD27 UTM/SPCS Projection and re-projected to GCS WGS84 (EPSG 4326) for management in BOEM's enterprise GIS.

Description: Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) blocks serve as the legal definition for BOEM offshore boundary coordinates used to define small geographic areas within an Official Protraction Diagram (OPD) for leasing and administrative purposes. These polygons are clipped to the Submerged Land Act Boundary and Continental Shelf Boundaries. OCS blocks relate back to individual Official Protraction Diagrams (OPDs) and are not uniquely numbered. A block is uniquely described by the Protraction Number and Block Number (e.g., NK18-02, Block 6822). A full OCS block is 4800 x 4800 meters. Smaller, clipped aliquots are found along the Federal/State OCS boundary and along UTM zone borders. Only the most recently published paper or PDF versions of the OPDs or Supplemental Official Block Diagrams (SOBDs) should be used for official or legal purposes.These data were created in the applicable NAD83 UTM or NAD27 UTM/SPCS Projection and re-projected to GCS WGS84 (EPSG 4326) for management in BOEM's enterprise GIS.

Description: Aliquots are generated from Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) blocks by subdividing each block into 16ths, and this further subdivision allows for more detailed boundary delineation in offshore energy leasing. These polygons are clipped to the Submerged Land Act Boundary and Continental Shelf Boundaries. The aliquots use a letter designation in addition to their parent protraction number and OCS block number (e.g., NK18-02, 6822F). A full OCS block is 4800 x 4800 meters, while an aliquot measures 1200 x 1200 meters. Smaller, clipped aliquots are found along the Federal/State OCS boundary and along UTM zone borders. Only the most recently published paper or PDF versions of the Official Protraction Aliquot Diagram (OPAD) should be used for official or legal purposes.These data were created in the applicable NAD83 UTM or NAD27 UTM/SPCS Projection and re-projected to GCS WGS84 (EPSG 4326) for management in BOEM's enterprise GIS.
