Other Effective Area-Based Conservation Measures

Other Effective Area-Based Conservation Measures This dataset contains area-based management measures that have been recognized as 'other effective area-based conservation measures' (OECMs). It also contains basic information about OECMs, specifically their names, size, objectives, associated prohibitions, and DFO region.  Spatial data for OECMs will be evaluated regularly, taking the most recent available information into account. In addition new 'OECMs will be identified over time. Therefore, this dataset may change over time. 2025-02-25 Fisheries and Oceans Canada DFO.NCRMPCGIS-PCMSIGNCR.MPO@dfo-mpo.gc.ca Economics and IndustryForm DescriptorsGovernment and PoliticsNature and EnvironmentMarine RefugesOECMConservation areasFisheries managementConservationMarine conservation areas Data DictionnaryPDF https://api-proxy.edh-cde.dfo-mpo.gc.ca/catalogue/records/44769543-7a23-4991-a53f-c2cf7c7a946f/attachments/Dictionnaire%20de%20donn%C3%A9es%20AMCEZ_FR.pdf Data DictionaryPDF https://api-proxy.edh-cde.dfo-mpo.gc.ca/catalogue/records/44769543-7a23-4991-a53f-c2cf7c7a946f/attachments/OECM%20Data%20Dictionary_EN.pdf Other Effective Area-Based Conservation MeasuresWMS https://egisp.dfo-mpo.gc.ca/arcgis/services/open_data_donnees_ouvertes/other_effective_area_based_conservation_measures/MapServer/WMSServer?SERVICE=WMS&VERSION=1.3.0&REQUEST=GetCapabilities DFO_OECM_MPO_AMCEZ_SHP.zipSHP https://api-proxy.edh-cde.dfo-mpo.gc.ca/catalogue/records/44769543-7a23-4991-a53f-c2cf7c7a946f/attachments/DFO_OECM_MPO_AMCEZ_SHP.zip DFO_OECM_MPO_AMCEZ_KML.zipKML https://api-proxy.edh-cde.dfo-mpo.gc.ca/catalogue/records/44769543-7a23-4991-a53f-c2cf7c7a946f/attachments/DFO_OECM_MPO_AMCEZ_KML.zip DFO_OECM_MPO_AMCEZ_GDB.zipFGDB/GDB https://api-proxy.edh-cde.dfo-mpo.gc.ca/catalogue/records/44769543-7a23-4991-a53f-c2cf7c7a946f/attachments/DFO_OECM_MPO_AMCEZ_GDB.zip Other Effective Area-Based Conservation MeasuresESRI REST https://egisp.dfo-mpo.gc.ca/arcgis/rest/services/open_data_donnees_ouvertes/other_effective_area_based_conservation_measures/MapServer Other Effective Area-Based Conservation MeasuresESRI REST https://egisp.dfo-mpo.gc.ca/arcgis/rest/services/open_data_donnees_ouvertes/other_effective_area_based_conservation_measures/MapServer
