)

Arguments

area: Character reporting codes, such as `c("541", "542", "543")`. NULL returns all available codes (subject to `include_international`).
proj: Output CRS; NULL retains the bundled EPSG:4326 geometry.
include_international: Include the international Donut Hole (550). It is not part of the U.S. EEZ or a U.S. FMP management area.
