Layer Name: Ocean Recreation Areas Coverage Name: ORECGENL Layer Type: Polygon Status: Complete Geog. Extent: Main Hawaiian Islands Projection: Universal Trans Mercator, Zone 4 Datum: NAD 83 Description: Ocean Recreation Areas for the State of Hawaii. Sub-area polygons can be found in the ORECSUBA coverage. Specific recreation zones can be found in the ORECZONES coverage. Special overlapping zones can be found in the ORECSPEC coverage. Source: Legislative Citations (see polygon attributes for specific citations). History: Compiled and digitized by Ogden Environmental Services, 1994. Beginning points for most areas were compiled onto USGS quad maps; then generally screen digitized using legislative citation descriptions. Ogden attemped to correct problem polygons (see orec.problems) by consulting with DLNR, Division of Boating and Recreation.

Ogden found that the State GIS coastline and features on the nautical charts often did not match. In addition, in the legislative citations, the narrative often conflicted with maps and drawings in the exhibits. Each problem encountered, and any corrections made are fully documented in orec.problems Note 2: For more information, refer to "Final Report: Comprehensive Management of Coastal Resources, Phase1," Ogden Environmental Services for the Coastal Zone Management Program, Office of Planning, June 1994.
