An exclusive economic zone (EEZ) is a sea zone prescribed by the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea over which a state has special rights regarding the exploration and use of marine resources, including energy production from water and wind. It stretches from the baseline out to 200 nautical miles (nmi) from its coast. In colloquial usage, the term may include the continental shelf. The term does not include either the territorial sea or the continental shelf beyond the 200 nmi limit. The difference between the territorial sea and the exclusive economic zone is that the first confers full sovereignty over the waters, whereas the second is merely a "sovereign right" which refers to the coastal state's rights below the surface of the sea. The surface waters, as can be seen in the map, are international waters. | An exclusive economic zone (EEZ) is a sea zone prescribed by the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea over which a state has special rights regarding the exploration and use of marine resources, including energy production from water and wind.

Within the MSP Challenge Game the EEZ indicates the Planning Region of a team. Planning outside of your team's EEZ requires the team who's border is crossed to approve the plan before implementation. | Within the MSP Challenge Game the EEZ indicates the Planning Region of a team.

The geometry errors and duplicates were fixed, the geometry was simplified to implement the layer in the MSP Challenge. The data was also reprojected to Lambert's Azimuthal Equal Area (EPSG:3035) projection. | ||
The layer was updated on 2020-11-30 using the new version of the Exclusive Economic Zone of [http://maps.helcom.fi/website/mapservice/ HELCOM] (2019). The base layer is the one from Flanders Marine Institute (2012), the polygons were edited to match the boundaries of HELCOM (2019). | |||

Adapted from Flanders Marine Institute (2019). Maritime Boundaries Geodatabase: Maritime Boundaries and Exclusive Economic Zones (200NM), version 11. Available online at https://www.marineregions.org/. DOI: https://doi.org/10.14284/386/ | |||
===Original Title=== | |||
Maritime Boundaries Geodatabase: Maritime Boundaries and Exclusive Economic Zones (200NM) | |||
===Description=== | ===Description=== | ||
=== | "Maritime Boundaries and Exclusive Economic Zones from the VLIZ Maritime Boundaries Geodatabase. Boundaries have been built using information about treaties between coastal countries. When treaties are not available, median lines have been calculated. An exclusive economic zone (EEZ) is a sea zone extending from a state's coast or baseline over which the state has special rights over the exploration and use of marine resources. Generally, a state's EEZ extends 200 nautical miles out from its coast, except where resulting points would be closer to another country. This dataset also contains delimitation of overlapping claims and joint regimes." (Retrieved from https://www.vliz.be/en/imis?dasid=6316&doiid=386 on 2023-03-39). | ||
===Creation Date=== | |||
2019 | |||
===Methodology=== | |||
The dataset was clipped to the area of interest, merged boundaries belonging to the same country in different seas, removed subtractive polygons and adjusted to fit the countries' layer without overlaps or gaps.<headertabs /> | |||
