    SOURCE TITLE :              NOAA Navigational Charts. IN ALL CASES
                                THE SMALLEST SCALE CHARTS WERE USED (I.E.
                                HARBOR AREAS WERE TAKEN FROM 1:40000 AND
                                OFFSHORE AREAS FROM 1:80000 CHARTS).

GENERAL DESCRIPTION :

    This coverage contains bathymetric contour lines for the entire Florida
coastline in 3- and 6-foot increments in shallow water and larger increments
in deeper water.


SDE STATEMENT :

In March, 2000, the shapefile of this dataset was inserted into Spatial
Database Engine (SDE 3.0.2).  SDE is ESRI's client/server technology for storing
and managing spatial data in a relational database management system (RDBMS) and
for spatially enabling existing RDBMS tables.  For most datasets, ARC/INFO
specific fields, such as <cover># and <cover>-id were dropped.  In a few cases,
existing field names were changed for clarity or given the suffix '_x' where
conflicts occurred with Oracle, SQL, or SQLPlus reserved words.
