- Abstract:
-
This data set contains Official Protraction Diagram (OPD) outlines in ESRI shapefile format. Atlantic Region OPDs are approximately 2 degrees wide by one degree high. OPDs are further subdivided into blocks that are 4800 x 4800 meters on a UTM plane (but this file does not include those blocks - only the OPD outline). Where the OPD hits the UTM zone boundary, that zone boundary will be a geodesic line - which will appear slightly curved on the UTM plane. OPDs are numbered using the United Nations International Map of the World Numbering System, and are generally named for land or hydrographic features contained within the limits of the diagram. This file also includes the dividing line between the Atlantic Region and the Gulf of Mexico Region in the area of the Florida Keys. Further information on the historic development of OPD's can be found in OCS Report MMS 99-0006: Boundary Development on the Outer Continental Shelf: <http://www.boemre.gov/itd/pubs/1999/99-0006.PDF> Because GIS projection and topology functions can change or generalize coordinates, these GIS files are considered to be approximate and are NOT an OFFICIAL record for the exact OPD coordinates or areas. The Official Protraction Diagrams (OPDs) and Supplemental Official Block Diagrams (SOBDs), available on the web in pdf format, serve as the legal definition for BOEMRE offshore boundary coordinates and area descriptions.
- Purpose:
-
These block polygons and other cadastre information the BOEMRE produces are generated in accordance with 30 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) 256.8 to support Federal land ownership and mineral resource management.
- Supplemental_Information:
-
The BOEMRE is making its existing cadastre data available at <http://www.boemre.gov/offshore/mapping/>. These data include Official Protraction Diagrams (OPDs), and Supplemental Official OCS Block Diagrams (SOBDs) in pdf format, and digital spatial data in ArcGIS shapefile format.

Coordinates values have been computed to .00000001 of a degree, but this shapefile is considered to be approximate. Where differences occur between the shapefile and the OPD and SOBD diagrams, the diagrams take precedence. This shapefile was created by extracting the X-Y UTM coordinates from the TIMS database. In order to create this Regional shapefile, which spans multiple UTM zones, all coordinates were re-projected to a single UTM zone (Zone 18). This file was then re-projected to geographic for distribution purposes. This resulted in some distortion (up to 0.009 meters) at the far East and West edges of the shapefile.

-
In house programs were used to protract offshore blocks OPD by OPD, on a UTM grid for the offshore areas. The resulting points were then stored in the TIMS database. Other in-house program were used to create an ArcInfo Coverage from the data stored in the TIMS database. That coverage was converted into a shapefile using ArcGIS.
