Modernizing Access to Our Public Oceans Act standardizes and publishes data on public recreational use of federal waterways.

The Modernizing Access to Our Public Oceans Act mandates the Secretary of Commerce to make available digitized geographic information system data on federal waterways, including navigation, bathymetric, and depth chart information. The act also requires the Secretary to develop standards for collecting and disseminating geospatial data on public outdoor recreational use of federal waterways and federal fishing restriction areas. The Secretary must ensure the data is findable, accessible, interoperable, and reusable, and must update it regularly.
