Polygon data for all major shipping lanes associated with all ports in the Gulf of Mexico are presented. These layers were modified from GIS data acquired from the U. S.

Although file description reports are available, no FGDC-compliant metadata are available for the original files from BOEM. The current layers are non-projected with coordinates in decimal degrees.
