Hatcher). They used the "Gridder" program to obtain the grid. This gridded data set was generated from the original NOS soundings from 9 track tape that was cleaned up and edited at URI. This work was done with the intention of producing the color poster called "Long Island Sound Estuary" (Connecticut Dept. of Environmental Protection"), 1993. The accuracy is questionable. Purpose: These data can be used with geographic information systems (GIS) software to display geologic and oceanographic information for the U. S. Atlantic northeast. The data are to be used for illustrations and illustrative maps on scientific topics. They are intended for science researchers, students, policy makers, and the general public. There is NO ASSURANCE of their accuracy, completeness, or precision.

Completeness_Report: Information unavailable from the original metadata Lineage: Process_Step: Process_Description: The metadata was edited to remove errors as well as update some information. Edits include updating the citation section with the DOI link and modifying the title, added the USGS Thesaurus and ISO 19115 Topic Category thesaurus, added keywords section with USGS persistent identifier as theme keyword, added link to cross-reference, used a generic email address in metadata, replaced distribution liability with FSP statement. Other blank fields were deleted. The metadata date (20020405), but not the contact (except email and contact instructions) was updated. The metadata available from a harvester may supersede metadata available from the publication. Compare the metadata dates to determine which metadata file is most recent.
