MPA Center Partners with UNH on Maine-New Hampshire Atlas Project (OCRM)
From January 12-14, the National Marine Protected Areas Center (MPA Center), in cooperation with the Coastal Response Research Center at the University of New Hampshire, hosted a New Hampshire and Southern Maine Ocean Uses Atlas workshop. Participating resource managers, stakeholders, and scientists used innovative Geographic Information System (GIS) techniques to map patterns of consumptive, non-consumptive, and industrial/military human uses of the ocean from the high tide line to 200 nautical miles out for the coastal area from Phippsburg, Maine, to the New Hampshire/Massachusetts border. The resulting data, maps, and analytical products will be used in emergency response planning and made available to state and federal ocean management agencies and all other interested parties.
