This point shapefile identifies 194 marine and inland port locations used by marine fisheries for the landing and sale of fish and invertebrates. Each port has a code identifier which is linked to fishery landings at that port. The code is referenced in several other fishery datasets in this collection. This layer is part of a collection of data created by the California Department of Fish & Game. Port identification and location is used to analyze and map marine fishery activities by geographic region throughout California. Some port points were created by screen digitizing the geographic point of the city or harbor. Not relevant None. Please cite California Department of Fish and Game, Marine Region, when adding this GIS layer to presentation products. This layer is presented in the WGS84 coordinate system for web display purposes. Downloadable data are provided in native coordinate system or projection.
