This comprehensive geospatial database combines publicly available data with information from state and federal MPA programs. It can be used to view MPAs; explore status and trends of MPAs; create customized maps and analytical products; or add MPAs to data portals, online viewers, and other spatial data visualizations. The 2015 MPA Inventory can be accessed via (1) interactive data viewer: Searchable online visualization application; (2) downloadable GIS data: ESRI shapefile or geodatabase; (3) downloadable tabular data: Excel spreadsheet (no spatial reference); and (4) web mapping services: Series of layers with a range of display options __Connected to Sustainable Development Goal Indicator 14.5.1 - Coverage of protected areas in relation to marine areas__ https://web.archive.org/web/*/http://marineprotectedareas.noaa.gov/dataanalysis/mpainventory/
