ArcGIS Map Document Readme

The map document and shapefiles used to create the trackline maps provided in this 
archive 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 document was created with PC-compatible 
Environmental Systems Research Institute (ESRI) ArcGIS 10 software. The arc.zip file also 
contains an images folder, which stores .gif images of each trackline's subbottom profile.  
To access these images using ArcMap 10, open the map document, 05fgs01_location.mxd, 
then click on the hyperlink button (the symbol is a lightning bolt) located on the toolbar.  
Once this is activated, the tracklines will all change to blue, indicating they have 
hyperlinks. Selecting a trackline will open up the associated printable profile image. 
Shapefiles may also be viewed using other versions of ESRI ArcGIS for Desktop software 
including their free software, ArcGIS Explorer 
(http://www.esri.com/software/arcgis/explorer/index.html); however, the hyperlink 
feature is disabled when using this software. 
	
The map document displays trackline navigation, the start of line (green dots), and 500-
shot-interval locations (black dots) along each line. The Points to Lines ArcScript, 
downloadable at http://arcscripts.esri.com/details.asp?dbid=12702, was used to create the 
trackline layer. 

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

*Note: ArcMap 10 .mxd files are not backward compatible; however, the shapefiles can
be viewed using earlier versions of ArcGIS software.
