Title: Shallow Water Shoal Dangers Biscayne Bay Florida
Geospatial_Data_Presentation_Form: vector digital data
Description:
Abstract:
This GIS data set represents shallow water areas in Biscayne Bay, including shallow intertidal areas and shoals. FMRI staff digitized the hydrographic features in Biscayne Bay from 1:40,000 scale National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) nautical charts 11463 and 11465 from the FMRI library (publication date 09/1999).
Purpose:
This data set represents shallow water areas for cartographic use.
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.
This data set is a general cartographic representation, and should not be relied upon for navigation.
