And to zip files (I thought they already were, apologies). Here is a thumbnail graphic...attached. But can do something bigger scale if that is what you suggest! Appreciate your help with this!

It makes perfect sense, I just wanted to make sure we were on the same page. I do have a few follow up questions as I am finishing up the last few archival steps for your data package. My first question is, can I update your title to make it spell out MPA initially? Current Title: "MPA Inventory 2017 - U.S. Marine Protected Area Boundaries " Suggested Updated Title: U.S. Marine Protected Area (MPA) Boundaries Inventory 2017 Or please feel free to suggest your own update. I know we are familiar with MPA, but I think spelling it out initially will help researchers from all backgrounds. Also, GIS users commonly request that the shape files are placed together in a .zip directory to facilitate download. Would you like for me to zip the 'MPAI2017' directory? Finally, would you like to include an image (.png, .pdf, or .jpg) of your final map for us to display as a browse graphic for this dataset on the geoportal landing page? This is not a requirement, but I thought I would ask in case you would like for one to be included. If so, you can email me the image. Please feel free to let me know if you have any questions. Many thanks, Lauren from: Mimi D'Iorio - NOAA Federal to: Lauren Jackson - NOAA Affiliate date: May 11, 2020, 12:48 PM subject: Re: NCEI Accession 0209248 mailed-by: noaa.gov signed-by: noaa.gov Hi Lauren, No other previous versions. We made some significant changes in 2020 so feel it would be good to have that last version archived. Can you let me know what else you need from me? I will review the previous email and be in touch if I have any questions. THANKS for your help!

I am archiving your dataset titled "MPA Inventory 2017 - U.S. Marine Protected Area Boundaries". Thank you for your note in the comments that this is the last version of your 2017 data. This kind of information is always very helpful. I want to confirm that there are not any other previous versions of this data archived at NCEI?
