Title: Inlets and Passes Florida
Geospatial_Data_Presentation_Form: vector digital data
Description:
Abstract:
This GIS data set represents inlets, passes, and major rivers along the coast of Florida. Point location of major features are heads-up digitzed using 2004 DOQQ imagery as reference. The names of features are taken from GNIS, when available or from NOAA Nautical Charts.
Purpose:
This GIS data set references major water features for cartographic purposes. Only named features are represented along the outer coastline, so this is not a complete listing of all inlets, passes, rivers, etc.
Supplemental_Information:
Prior to July 1, 2004, the Fish and Wildlife Research Institute (FWRI) was known as the Florida Marine Research Institute (FMRI). The institute name has not been changed in historical data sets or references to work completed by the Florida Marine Research Institute. The institute name has been changed in references to ongoing research, new research, and contact information.
