FWS National Regional Boundaries

This data set delineates the boundaries of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service geographic Regions. The dataset was created as a geographic representation of the Regional administrative boundaries of the US Fish and Wildlife Service at a very coarse scale. The boundaries were created using the ArcGIS shoreline dataset from approximately 1995. This dataset should not be used for legal purposes or at small scales and does not accurately denote the shorelines of the united states. The Regional Boundaries data set is managed by the FWS Headquarters, Joint Administrative Operations (JAO), Branch of Geospatial Data Services (BGDS). The complete data and metadata can be accessed here: https://catalog.data.gov/dataset/us-fish-and-wildlife-service-regional-boundaries. This data set is a graphical representation and has limitations of accuracy as determined by, among others, the source, scale and resolution of the data. Kentucky Bend was added to R4 - Southeast Region and was the most recent modification to this dataset, completed on 2/3/2026 ServCat Repository: https://iris.fws.gov/APPS/ServCat/Reference/Profile/52322 Point of Contact: [e-mail] e-mail: [e-mail] DOI Interior Regions / Regional Boundaries (https://fws.maps.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=309aa728d6c041ceaefc1526a409b5d1).本数据集划定了美国鱼类及野生动物管理局（U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service，简称USFWS）地理区域的行政边界。本数据集以高度概化的比例尺制作，用于呈现美国鱼类及野生动物管理局的区域行政边界地理分布。该边界基于1995年左右的ArcGIS海岸线数据集生成。本数据集不得用于法律用途，亦不可在小比例尺场景下使用，且无法准确表征美国的海岸线。 本区域边界数据集由美国鱼类及野生动物管理局总部下辖的联合行政运营部（Joint Administrative Operations，简称JAO）、地理空间数据服务分支（Branch of Geospatial Data Services，简称BGDS）管理。完整数据集与元数据可通过以下链接获取：https://catalog.data.gov/dataset/us-fish-and-wildlife-service-regional-boundaries。 本数据集为图形化呈现成果，其精度受数据源、比例尺与数据分辨率等多因素限制。肯塔基河弯（Kentucky Bend）已被划入R4——东南区域，这是本数据集截至2026年2月3日完成的最新一次更新。数据集存储库链接：https://iris.fws.gov/APPS/ServCat/Reference/Profile/52322。 联系人：[e-mail]；联系邮箱：[e-mail]。内政部区域/边界数据集的数字对象标识符（Digital Object Identifier，DOI）链接：https://fws.maps.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=309aa728d6c041ceaefc1526a409b5d1。
