The Ocean Planning Information System (OPIS) is an Internet-based, regional marine GIS. Its study area extends from the coastal zones of the Carolinas, Georgia, and Florida to the exclusive economic zone, including a variety of maritime boundaries. OPIS was developed to provide coastal and ocean resource managers in the Southeast with access to regional digital geographic mapping information and technologies to facilitate coordinated decision making within and across the multi-layered U.S. ocean management framework. Special emphasis is placed on the federal ocean and coastal management and governance framework, and efforts are ongoing to develop similar data sets for state and local level policy frameworks. These data were submitted by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to the National Marine Protected Areas Inventory.
