These maps are issued as electrostatic plots consisting of only one or a few map sheets for each State; they also are available in smaller scale, sectionalized form in census publications.

Crews of vessels The shipboard populations of U.S. Navy, U.S. Coast Guard, and merchant marine vessels. For a decennial census, they are assigned to the offshore area adjacent to the land area that contains the facility, pier, or dock associated with the ship; this location is assigned a unique census tract or BNA number, with a suffix of .99, and a unique block number of either 199 (for a military vessel) or 299 (for a civilian vessel). This area is more conceptual than geographic, and has no area measurement assigned to it.
