Political or administrative boundaries including land ownership and management units, parks, refuges, fire management boundaries, ethnolinguistic regions, native corporations, and climate divisions.

### `alaska_buffer`
Dissolved 100 km buffer of the AK coastline (`alaska_coast_simplified`). Great for clipping raster data. EPSG:3338.


### `alaska_coast_simplified`
Simplifed EPSG:3338 geometry of the otherwise complex and crenulated AK coastline. Great for clipping raster data. This is the go-to AK spatial boundary polygon.
Simplifed EPSG:3338 geometry of the otherwise complex and crenulated AK coastline. Great for visualizing AK and for vector operations.
