Maritime zones are drawn using what the LOSC calls “baselines.” Unlike inland waters, coastal waters rise and fall in tides. Rather than having moving maritime boundaries, the baseline is fixed to begin at the low-water line along the coast. The low-water line is derived from the coastal State’s own charts.1
These zones are measured using nautical miles, a measurement based on the circumference of the Earth.2 One nautical mile equals roughly 1.15 miles on land.
As seen in the graphic below, the LOSC divides the ocean into six different zones:
1. Internal Waters3. Contiguous Zone5. Continental Shelf2. Territorial Sea4. Exclusive Economic Zone6. High Seas & D
