ArcGIS Project Readme

The map documents and shapefiles used to create the trackline maps provided on 
this disc can be found in the arc.zip file located in the arc subfolder of the 
software folder located at the top level of the disc. The map documents were 
created with PC-compatible Environmental Systems Research Institute (ESRI) 
ArcGIS 9.3 software.  Shapefiles provided may also be viewed using other 
versions
of of ESRI desktop software including their free software, ArcGIS Explorer
(http://www.esri.com/software/arcgis/explorer/index.html), or GeoMapApp
(http://www.geomapapp.org/), which is compatible with all platforms. The 
Points to Lines ArcScript, downloadable at 
http://arcscripts.esri.com/details.asp?dbid=12702, was used to create the 
trackline layer.
	
The map documents (.mxd) are named 97lca01_location, 97lca02_03_location,
dosson, halfmoon, indian_river, indian_river2, round, sebastian_inlet, and 
sebastian_inlet2. All maps display trackline navigation. The inset maps 
(indian_river2.mxd and sebastian_inlet2.mxd) also show the start of line and 
500-shot-interval locations along each line.

The list below describes the shapefiles provided with the ArcGIS project.
Metadata are available as FGDC-compliant HTML (viewable with any Web browser), 
text, and XML documents (used by ArcCatalog).
