Navy Operations - SPAWAR Mine Interdiction Warfare (MIW) Training Areas

This data shows the U.S. Navy's SPAWAR Mine Interdiction Warfare training areas. Locations shown are where military training and testing is scheduled and conducted in support of Test and Evaluation mine detection capabilities (Primary POC: Jerry Olen, SPAWAR [phone], Secondary POC: Michael Huber, Navy Region Southwest, [phone]). Data was acquired from the Navy and modified for use in the San Diego Ocean Planning Partnership, a collaborative pilot between the California State Lands Commission and the Port of San Diego. Modification of the original dataset included elimination of features outside the extent of the Ocean Planning effort and/or which were not applicable, dissolving features to aggregate similar areas of usage, reprojecting the data for use in the ocean planning mapping application, updating attribute information, and updating metadata.
