DISCLAIMER: The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Coastal Services Center produced this data CD-ROM using data originated by the National Centers for Coastal Ocean Science (NCCOS). Neither the NOAA Coastal Services Center nor NCCOS Biogeography Program guarantees the accuracy of the geographic features or attributes. Please see the metadata records for each data set for complete information on the source, limitations, and proper use.
Note: The shapefiles contained on this CD-ROM (p_rico.shp, stc_fin.shp, and stsj_fin.shp)
are not projected, that is, they are in the geographic coordinate system
(decimal degrees, NAD83). The aerial photo mosaics are projected into the Universal
Transverse Mercator System (UTM Zone 20 for the U.S.
Virgin Islands and UTM Zone 19 for Puerto Rico, NAD83, meters). As a result,
to overlay these files in ArcView®, the user needs to set the Projection
parameters in the View Properties dialog box to 'UTM Zone N'.
Alternatively, the user can project the geographic files to UTM.
