MORIS Layers from Coastal Zone Management
OVERVIEW
The GIS data layers listed on this page were developed by Coastal Zone Management or their affiliates. MassGIS stores unmodified
copies in its ArcSDE geodatabase for use in MORIS
and web mapping services. MORIS, the Massachusetts Ocean Resource
Information System, is an online mapping tool similar to OLIVER, with
an emphasis on ocean datalayers. These layers may be downloaded as shapefiles or GeoTiffs
from within MORIS.
For details please visit the following
Web pages maintained by CZM (the names of the layers as stored at
MassGIS are listed in parentheses). Any questions please contact Daniel.Sampson@state.ma.us at CZM.
The following layers are in the Massachusetts Ocean Management Plan: (some datalayers appear in more than one category)
