FL1803-CM-N: High-Resolution Shoreline Vector Data for Intracoastal Waterway, Florida

Florida's Intracoastal Waterway, from Wetappo Creek South Prong to Lake Wimico, is covered by this high-resolution shoreline vector dataset. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) compiled the data from imagery using its Coastal Cartographic Object Attribute Source Table (C-COAST) attribution scheme. The dataset was last updated on March 13, 2026.

Use Cases

• Conducting shoreline change analysis based on the high-resolution vector line data.
• Integrating shoreline features into nautical charts or GIS basemaps based on the C-COAST attribution scheme.
• Performing coastal zone management planning based on the interpreted imagery-derived shoreline.
• Translating shoreline data for hydrographic systems based on the S-57 influenced attribution structure.

Strengths

• Shoreline is described as 'accurate high-resolution' in the description.
• Data uses a structured attribution scheme (C-COAST) influenced by the international S-57 standard.
• Last update date is explicitly provided: 2026-03 13.

Limitations

• Row count and file size are unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Data may reflect geographic bias inherent to the specific Florida waterway surveyed.
