This is a Raster data set. It contains the following raster data types:
Planar coordinates are encoded using coordinate pair
Abscissae (x-coordinates) are specified to the nearest 4.0 (5.0 for East and West Flower Garden Banks and Stetson Bank)
Ordinates (y-coordinates) are specified to the nearest 4.0 (5.0 for East and West Flower Garden Banks and Stetson Bank)
Planar coordinates are specified in Meters
The horizontal datum used is WGS84.
The ellipsoid used is WGS84.
The semi-major axis of the ellipsoid used is 6378137.00 meters.
The flattening of the ellipsoid used is 1/0.003352811.
