The shapefile was converted in SpatialPolygonsDataFrame using rgdal:
mpa<-readOGR("EMISR/data/mpa/","mpa",encoding="Latin1")
then mpa was splitted in two: mpa1 and mpa2.
A SpatialPolygonsDataFrame with 5612 features (the last 5612 MPA according to their wdpaid)
No projection system is available for this SpatialPolygonsDataFrame due to coordinates problem. 26 variables are available, describing the mpa characteristics (see reference).
