Description

Degree slope of Stellwagen Bank bathymetry. Raster derived from 5-meter bathymetric contour lines (Quads 1-18). Collected on surveys carried out in 4 cruises 1994 - 1996 using the Kongsberg SIMRAD EM1000 multibeam system on the CHS vessel Frederick G. Creed. For each quad, multibeam data was processed, converted to an ARC/INFO point coverage, gridded with a cell-size of 13m and contoured at an interval of 5m. 18 quads were merged into one shapefile for convenience in this publication. Scale 1:25,000
