Identification_Information: Citation: Citation_Information: Originator: State Oil and Gas Board of Alabama Publication_Date: 20121215 Publication_Time: Unknown Title: Offshore Pipelines Online Linkage: http://www.ogb.state.al.us/ogb/gis_data.aspx Description: Abstract: The State Oil & Gas Board of Alabama (OGB) is a regulatory agency of the State of Alabama with the statutory charge of preventing waste and promoting the conservation of oil and gas while insuring the protection of both the environment and the correlative rights of owners. The OGB is granted broad authority in Alabama oil and gas conservation statutes to promulgate and enforce rules and regulations to ensure the conservation and proper development of Alabama's petroleum resources, as well as environmental data, for industry, government, and the public. The OGB is the repository for all files containing permitting data, engineering data, production data, environmental data, base maps, and legal proceedings pertaining to oil and gas wells and fields. The OGB's GIS will provide the public and other state and federal agencies with a fully integrated, complete set of GIS shapefiles to aid in the regulation of and education about oil and gas exploration activities in Alabama. Supplemental_Information: The State Oil & Gas Board is the sister agency to the Geological Survey of Alabama. These agencies share a close working relationship regarding the development of GIS shapefiles. Purpose: The "Offshore Pipelines" layer was created in 2012 as a File Geodatabase Feature Class to be used in the State Oil & Gas Board's (OGB) Offshore Oil and Gas Infrastructure database. This layer represents pipeline locations that are associated with the production of hydrocarbons underlying the State of Alabama in the State Waters. Data used to generate this layer are filed with the OGB.

Feature classes can be stored in geodatabases, shapefiles, coverages, or other data formats. Feature classes allow homogeneous features to be grouped into a single unit for data storage purposes. For example, highways, primary roads, and secondary roads can be grouped into a line feature class named "roads." In a geodatabase, feature classes can also store annotation and dimensions.
