Button & Index Descriptions

button6.gif (1313 bytes) This button allows the user to download a zipped file containing a single 1 arc second DEM file which contains all the data processed for the entire estuary. This is a composite file containing all the data found in the individual 7.5" quad files. Because some of the estuaries have incomplete DEM coverage, you may want to download the DEM Index by itself to preview which areas are covered by the DEM. Use the "Download DEM Index Image" button, to retrieve just the Index.
button7.gif (1329 bytes) This button allows the user to download a zipped file containing a single 1 degree (3 arc second) DEM file which contains all the data processed for the entire estuary. Because some of the estuaries have incomplete DEM coverage, you may want to download the DEM Index by itself to preview which areas are covered by the DEM. Also, because many estuaries are fully contained within the boundary of a single degree square, this file may not differ at all from the file connected to the "DEM Download 1 arc second (1 degree)" button. Use the "Download DEM Index Image" button, to retrieve just the Index.
button4.gif (4283 bytes) This button allows the user to download a zipped file containing 1 or more sounding coverage maps. A legend for the map is also contained with the zipped file. The sounding coverage maps allow the user to get a general idea of the distance between the original soundings data so that they may assess for themselves whether or not the original point coverages meet their project's resolution needs.
button8.gif (4283 bytes) This button allows the user to view a table containing the size of each of the available download files.
button9 This button allows the user to download a Google Earth visualization files in kmz format. For more information on Google Earth please visit: http://earth.google.com/
button10 This button allows the user to download a zipped file containing an estuary footprint shapefile.
example index Location Index - Shows the user where the estuary is located in relation to a large portion of the U.S. Coast.
