Guidance on marine protected area protection level assignments when faced with unknown regulatory information
On behalf of NOAA I want to thank you for your organization’s excellent work on your recently published national database and online mapping application for marine managed area boundaries and regulation information.

We have found ProtectedSeas Navigator to be the best source of data and remarkably comprehensive tool for understanding the spatial implications of marine protected area regulations. This is a valuable resource for ocean conservation.
No one can understand ocean protection without first understanding existing ocean regulations… It is not only useful, it is essential for what we are trying to do at Mission Blue in designating and encouraging the designation of Hope Spots to have this kind of information. We are really thrilled to be partnering with ProtectedSeas …Navigator.

Our Partners
To support ocean conservation globally, we work with universities, marine conservation, and governmental organizations in the US and abroad to drive innovation, awareness and support for information solutions for marine conservation and protection. Because if you don’t have the information you need, how can you support the oceans upon which all life depends?
