This bathymetric grid represents approximately 2800 line kilometers of bathymetric data collected in 2011. These data were collected using an interferometric sonar (Systems Engineering and Assessment Ltd. (SEA) SWATHplus-M (234 kHz)) by the U.S. Geological Survey during USGS survey 2011-005-FA. These bathymetric data were used to define the morphology of the sea floor on the inner-continental shelf offshore of Fire Island, New York to help assess environmental change caused by natural processes and human activities.

These data are available as a ArcInfo 32-bit floating point binary grid in Esri format. The floating point binary grid and associated 'info' folder are stored in one folder 'bathy' that has been compressed using WinZip (ver.14.0) software. To utilize these data, the user must have software capable of uncompressing the zip file and importing and viewing an Esri ArcRaster grid. The zip file also contains associated metadata.
