Description:

Abstract:
This GIS line data set represents depth contours (bathymetry) for the offshore areas of the southeast coast of Florida from Cape Canaveral to the Florida Keys, as shown in the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Nautical Chart 11460. FMRI staff digitized the contours off of a clean, wrinkle-free paper chart, using the most current version of the chart that was available in 1997. Shoreline and bathymetry of the Bahamas Banks were also digitized.
Purpose:
To represent marine depth contours, primarily for small-scale (large area) cartographic purposes.
Supplemental Information: These data are not to be used for navigation. User should be aware that later versions of the source charts may be available and that contours may have changed. Consult the most recent paper or digital charts available and appropriate coast pilot.
