S Geological Survey, Woods Hole Field Center's, Gulf of Mexico ArcView GIS database. The Gulf of Mexico GIS database is intended to organize and display USGS held data and provide on-line (WWW) access to the data and/or metadata. Purpose: This ArcView GIS layer is a 250 m version of the composite Gulf of Mexico GLORIA sidescan sonar mosaic.
