NGDC created the comprehensive data set by merging the U.S. Geological Survey 3-arc-second DEMs with a compilation of hydrographic soundings covering the US East Coast. The Coastal Relief Model extends from the coastal state boundaries to as far offshore as the data will support a continuous view of the seafloor. This dataset formed the basis for the creating of the CRM bathymetry image for this product's GIS.This image provides a color view of the CRM for the project area and is used as a basemap for overlaying usSEABED data.U.S. Geological Survey2003ATL_GRD8BIT.SID - Coastal Relief Model Bathymetry image for the Atlanticatl_grd8bit.sidremote-sensing imagehttp://pubs.usgs.gov/ds/2005/118/basemaps/atl_grd/atl_grd.zipJ.M.
